Chili Sauce

I found this chili sauce recipe in an old folder of recipes I picked up at either the Salvation Army as-is store or an estate sale. If you look at the photo you will see that it included canning instructions. Food safety & canning safety has changed over the years- because I do not know current safe practices I chose to leave it out.
