Green Tomato Sauce with chiili?

Hi all,

I have a tomato plant that broke so now I have a fair few green tomatoes. A quick Google search gave me this recipe.


Ingredients:
• green tomatoes
• onions
• black pepper
• dry mustard
• Worcestershire sauce
• vinegar
• honey

I was thinking of adding some chilli to give it a bit of kick.
Any suggestions on what would be good to add? I do have some unripe orange habs, firecrackers and I think a birdseye of some form growing ATM.

Also got a few Jalapeno's in the freezer, only about 1/2 doz though.

I ended up making a variation of this sauce this afternoon. Added some green chillies - anaheims?, birdseye, jalapenos and some green orange habaneros.

Looks rather 'runny' at the moment, hopefully it'll thicken up a little as it cools.

An interesting experiment if nothing else.

I'd be very interested in how this is after a few days to a week, I usually plant 6 tomato plants in my garden every year, and I always have green tomatoes laying around.

Well I've given some bottles out for testing purposes:)the feedback I'm getting so far has been very good. A work mate used it as a dipping sauce for some Moroccan chicken. His brother in law wants to know when I'm making more.

It may become a part of my range when it gets off the ground. :think:

nice looking sauce and labels! did you use a program for the labels or just Word (or something else generic)? did you use a waterbath also? I've been checking them out on ebay (Fowlers Vacola), they're not all that expensive especially for the stove top variety.

The labels were done with MS Publisher, I never did a water bath. My bottles are washed in very hot soapy water, then in boiling water. After that they go in a preheated oven 120 deg C for ten minutes. When the bottles come out they are filled straight away.


I might look at a water bath in the new year.
