No Lime juice?

Usually when canning tomatoes, you want some acid to keep the PH down.

How much lime should we add to the currentmix?

That's where 99% of the heat in the pepper is.
If you can't take the heat get out of the kitchen. Just messing with you.
You can if you like a milder salsa. Me likey HOT!!
My 2nd batch was tweaked last night added 2 habanero's to the mix. Can you say ******** leakage.
