Jens --

Sorry, forgot in my previous post....you might also consider canning some
tomatoes and chiles in a hot water bath -- I have mentioned frequently a
canned tomato-chile recipe that my wife and I make every year.  Tomatoes are
run through a food mill and added to a pureed onion-chile mixture, then
simmered and canned.  The final product is definitely much, much better than
the sum of the parts -- this is our favorite way to preserve tomatoes.  If
you cannot find this recipe by searching the archives (particularly from
last summer) let me know and I will re-post it.

By the way -- my wife and I learned a valuable lesson this season about
using a food mill.  We composted all of our tomato skins and seeds from the
food mill last year, and we had roughly 6,000 volunteer tomato plants this
year....

Hi !

I not only grow chiles, I also grow tomatoes ....

Now my sweet problem is ... I will have too much tomatoes on my hands come
harvest time this year :)

Does anyone have a recipe for ketchup, preferable one that has a result that
can be saved for a while ... ie months ...
