Grandma Prentice’s Chili Sauce

Ingredients

• 25 tomatoes, chopped
• 10 onions, cut into chunks
• 1 quart apple cider vinegar
• 6 green bell peppers, seeded and chopped
• 5 chile peppers, seeded and chopped
• 1 1/2 cups white sugar
• 1 green chile pepper, chopped with the seeds
• 1 tablespoon salt
• 1 teaspoon ground allspice
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon ground cloves

Directions

Mix tomatoes, onions, apple cider vinegar, green bell peppers, seeded chopped chile peppers, sugar, unseeded chopped chile pepper, salt, allspice, cinnamon, and cloves together in a large mixing bowl.

Ladle enough of the tomato mixture into the pitcher of a blender to fill to about 3/4-full; blend until smooth. Pour blended mixture into a large pot. Repeat blending until entire mixture has been pureed.

Bring the mixture to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer until thickened, 7 to 8 hours.
