I posted these a couple of months ago, but I think they bear repeating.... They hold for a few months in the fridge and I'm sure you could process them in a hot water bath and keep them even longer. I am going back to the archives to find another canned tomato-chile recipe that I will post forthwith. Jalapeno Ketchup from: The Great Chile Book, by Mark Miller (never tried this one) 1 medium onion, minced 1 T olive oil 0.5 cup sugar 2 t cumin seed, toasted and ground 1 T toasted oregano 1 cup unseasoned rice vinegar 2 roasted jalapenos, minced 1 cup red chile sauce 2 cup roasted Roma tomatoes, pureed 0.5 bunch cilantro salt Sauté onion in oil. Add sugar and cook 5 minutes. Add cumin, oregano, and deglaze with vinegar. Add jalapenos, red chile sauce, tomatoes, and cilantro. Simmer 1 hour. Puree and season with salt.
