Mexican Salsa
30 roma tomatoes
3 jalapenos
1 large onion
12 garlic cloves
1 cup cilantro or coriander leaf
2 chipotle chilies
Thanks to Rich at work for all the free tomatoes!!!!!
Make around 7 cups
I put up and canned most of it by simmering the final salsa for 15 minutes, then packing into jars in a water bath for 15 minutes. I also added the juice of one lime for more acidity for the canning process.
Thank you for watching!

El allioli
El allioli (del catalán-valenciano all i oli, 'ajo y aceite'),1 ajolio (en Aragón), ajoaceite (en la zona castellanoparlante de la Comunidad Valenciana, Murcia o Albacete), ajiaceite o ajaceite es una salsa típica de la gastronomía mediterránea (valenciana, catalana, balear, murciana, granadina...) formada por la emulsión de aceite de oliva y ajo.2
Suele emplearse como condimento en algunos de los platos, en especial de preparaciones a base de pescado o marisco. a veces como una salsa servida por separado. Forma parte de las salsas a base de ajo. Es frecuente en regiones e islas del arco mediterráneo entre España, Francia e Italia, que va desde Granada a Calabria, pasando por Cartagena (Murcia), Alicante (Comunidad Valenciana, Cataluña),3 Provenza (donde se denomina Le Grand Aïoli) o Liguria. En zonas de África se elabora una preparación muy similar denominada Toum. Entre estos platos podríamos citar el universal arroz a banda y su caldero que lo acompaña.
