Chili Sauce - Mary's Grandma Directions

  1. the original recipe calls for this; peel and chop tomatos, boil til tender, dip off as much of the liquid as you can. Add cayenne pepper, onions, and peppers, brown sugar, and salt, boil til thickened.
  2. Add spices and vinegar, boil 5 more minutes and can hot.
  3. After some experimenting this is what I now do;
  4. Double the amount of tomatos and peppers keeping all the other ingredient amounts the same. Add all ingredients without the "dipping off" and gently boil until reduced. Can hot, or
