Instructions

  1. 1 Combine ketchup, corn oil, cider vinegar, and sugar in a large pot over medium-high heat until sugar is completely dissolved; bring to a boil, then stir in jalapeños. Reduce heat to low; simmer for 10 minutes. Stir in garlic and oregano until incorporated.
  2. 2 Inspect 10 pint-sized jars for cracks and rings for rust, discarding any defective ones. Immerse in simmering water until jalapeños are ready. Wash new, unused lids and rings in warm soapy water.
  3. 3 Pack jalapeño mixture into 10 hot, sterilized pint jars, filling to within ¼-inch of tops. Run a clean knife or thin spatula around insides of jars to remove any air bubbles. Wipe rims with a moist paper towel to remove any residue. Top with lids and screw rings on tightly.
  4. 4 Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil and lower jars 2 inches apart into the boiling water using a holder. Pour in more boiling water to cover jars by at least 1 inch. Bring to a rolling boil, cover, and process for about 10 minutes.
  5. 5 Remove jars from the stockpot and set aside, several inches apart, for 12 to 24 hours. Press centers of lids with a finger to ensure lids do not move up or down. Remove rings for storage and store in a cool, dark area. Refrigerate any unsealed jars.

Instructions

  1. 1 Cut an "X" in the bottom of each tomato. Fill a large mixing bowl with ice water.
  2. 2 Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add tomatoes to the boiling water until skins start to curl, about 30 seconds. Remove tomatoes from the boiling water and submerge in the bowl of ice water until cool enough to handle, 1 to 2 minutes.
  3. 3 Remove tomatoes from the ice water; peel off and discard skins. Transfer skinned tomatoes to a blender and blend until liquefied. Pour into a medium saucepan; add onion, garlic, oregano, basil, salt, and pepper. Simmer over medium heat until sauce reduces to desired consistency, 60 to 90 minutes.
  4. 4 Puree pizza sauce with an immersion blender until smooth. Use sauce immediately, or store in the refrigerator overnight to allow flavors to develop.

Instructions

  1. 1 Cut ends off and peel eggplants; cut into long strips about as big around as shoestring French fries. Place strips into a large bowl; stir in ½ cup coarse salt until evenly coated.
  2. 2 Place a sturdy dinner plate upside-down in a clean sink, making sure the drain is not blocked. Place a generous handful eggplant strips on center of the plate; cover with a second upside-down dinner plate to create an eggplant sandwich. Layer more eggplant strips and plates until all eggplant strips are sandwiched. Place an additional plate on top; press down firmly. Set a sturdy stockpot on top; fill with enough water to create some pressure on eggplant layers. (Not so much pressure that you break your dishes, though.) Set eggplant aside to press for 8 hours to overnight.
  3. 3 Fill a large bowl with ice water. Dismantle stack of plates, one layer at a time, briefly swish eggplant strips in ice water, then squeeze dry and place into a clean bowl. (If your hand starts to hurt, you are swishing too long.) Stir vinegar into eggplant strips; set aside for about 15 minutes.
  4. 4 Heat a splash of olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add garlic, oregano, pepper flakes, and ½ teaspoon sea salt; cook and stir until fragrant but do not cook garlic. Set aside to cool.
  5. 5 Squeeze eggplants very well so they don't end up tasting like pickles; place into a large bowl. Stir in garlic mixture and remaining olive oil until well blended. Pack into a sterilized 1-pint or ½-pint jars, filling to the top; top with any olive oil left in the bowl. Wipe rims with a clean, dry cloth, and seal tightly with new, sterilized lids.
  6. 6 Refrigerate before opening for at least 1 month.
