This is my version of Mom's version of Granny's Green Tomato Ketchup! No sterilizing jars and canning...just eating and enjoying! Use this as a sidedish, or on potatoes or even with corn chips instead of salsa!
I'm the creator of this recipe - which is actually really good - if you don't follow the instructions I wrote down. I definately reused the "saltwater" one time and it came out really nice - so I wrote it down- but never again has it turned out at all- so if you'd like to try this recipe - discard ALL salted water and it will turn out just fine!!! All Recipes will not let me edit the recipe - since it's already been published. Basically ignore the part that says "reserve 1/2 cup" - throw it all away and rinse rinse rinse the salt off!!! It also says Kosher salt - it should be Coarse salt - or Pickling Salt. Massive typo on my part. I like things to be fairly salty - but it's much easier to add a wee bit of salt at the end with a salt shaker to your own personal taste. My apologies to anyone who tried the original version that was published - believe me - I tried to edit it. It wasn't until now could we review our own recipes. Mistake 1 - Coarse Picking Salt not Kosher Salt Mistake 2 - Do not reserve any of the salt water Mistake 3 - I didn't emphasize how important it is to rinse all the salt off the vegetables. Mistake 4 - When it's time to drain everything - you can just use a plain 'ol collander over the sink.
