  Texan David Pace had been selling 58 different varieties of jam,
  jellies, and sauces from the back of his liquor store in the 1940s
  when he came up with a recipe for a thick and spicy tomato-based
  sauce he dubbed "Picante." When sales of David's new sauce took off,
  he concentrated all his efforts on marketing his all-natural,
  preservative-free product, and designed the sauce's famous
  hourglass-shaped jar, to keep it from tipping over. Now America's
  number one Mexican hot sauce brand, Pace Foods, makes it known that
  it still uses only fresh jalapeo peppers in the sauces, rather than
  the brined, less flavorful jalapeos--like those canned nacho slices.
  Each year all the fresh jalapeos used by the company weigh in at
  around 30 million pounds, and the nation gobbles up around 120
  million pounds of the zingy sauces. Here's a simple recipe to make a
  kitchen copy of the medium heat-level Pace Picante Sauce, which was
  the first variety David created. The mild and hot versions were added
  in 1981, and you'll find clones for those at the bottom of the recipe
  in Tidbits.
  
  Combine all ingredients in a saucepan over medium high heat.
  
  Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer for 30 minutes or until
  thick.
  
  When cool, bottle in 16 oz jar and refrigerate overnight.
  
  Tidbits:
  
  For the mild version of the salsa, reduce the amount of fresh
  jalapeos to a rounded 2 tb, or 2 to 3 peppers.
  
  For the hot variety, increase the amount of jalapeos to 1/3 cup, or 4
  to 5 peppers.
