Many years ago, someone in the family collected recipes from descendants of my great grandparents, William M. and Florence E. (Snodgrass) Whaley and had them compiled into a cookbook. I am posting those recipes here so that they will not be lost. This recipe was submitted by Janey and Booth Outlan.

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds ripe tomatoes (approximate weight)
  • several medium onions, sliced and diced
  • 2 tablespoons cumin
  • 2 tablespoons minced garlic
  • 2 tablespoons mexican chili powder (hot)
  • 2 teaspoons white pepper (use less if using black pepper)
  • 1 bunch fresh cilantro

How To Make booth's killer picante sauce

  • Step 1
    Run all the vegetables through your Cuisinart or equivalent food processor. Puree about 1/2 the tomatoes and onions, then mix the spices into it. Leave the other 1/2 coarse chopped to give a better texture and visual appeal.
  • Step 2
    Add Pace, which contains thickness that will help keep the sauce from seeming watery, and it contains enough preservatives to keep the sauce from spoiling quickly.
