    List of Ingredients




    25 pounds tomatoes
    4 large green peppers, seeded
    4 large onions, cut into wedges
    4 cans (6 ounces each) tomato paste
    1 cup canola oil
    2/3 cup sugar
    1/4 cup salt
    8 garlic cloves, minced
    4 teaspoons dried oregano
    2 teaspoons dried parsley flakes
    2 teaspoons dried basil
    2 teaspoons crushed red pepper flakes
    2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
    2 bay leaves
    1 cup plus 2 tablespoons bottled lemon juice

    Recipe



    In a Dutch oven, bring 8 cups water to a boil. Using a slotted spoon,
    place tomatoes, one at a time, in boiling water for 30-60 seconds.
    Remove each tomato and immediately plunge in ice water. Peel and
    quarter tomatoes.

    In a food processor, cover and process green peppers and onions in
    batches until finely chopped.
    In a stockpot, combine the tomatoes, green pepper mixture, tomato
    paste, oil, sugar, salt, garlic, oregano, parsley, basil, pepper
    flakes, Worcestershire sauce and bay leaves. Bring to a boil. Reduce
    heat; simmer, uncovered, for 4-5 hours, stirring occasionally.
    Discard bay leaves.

    Add lemon juice to nine hot quart jars, 2 tablespoons in each. Ladle
    hot mixture into jars, leaving 1/2-in. headspace. Remove air
    bubbles; wipe rims and adjust lids. Process for 40 minutes in a
    boiling-water canner. Yield: 9 quarts.
