"This tomato salsa is mild - double the jalepeno peppers for hot salsa. It's important to use commercial lemon and lime juice to assure the finished salsa is acidic enough to can safely. Fresh squeezed juice can vary in acidity."

I made several different canned salsa recipes last year - this one was everyones favorite. Cucumbers seemed like an odd addition BUT they are what makes the recipe good - without being obnoxiously different. Only the cook knows they are in there. Anyway, thank you for an excellent recipe and I'll be making more this year.
