I found a way to cut down the steps of processing the tomatoes, quite by accident. I was getting so many tomatoes one year, that I just started throwing them in the freezer (in a bag). When it came time to process them, I set them out to thaw in a large rubbermaid container. When they thawed, they released all of the water from the tomatoes, and the skins immediately came off as well. So, I got 3 steps done at once! Then, I didn't have to boil down all the extra water for the tomato sauce. The container had collected all of the clear liquid of the tomatoes, leaving me with all of the 'saucy meat' to sauce up. It made my life so much easier and faster to get it all done! I'll never do it any other way now. Hope it helps! I also have used a food mill to remove the seeds and skins, but I still found it easier to work with thawed tomatoes.

I did that a lot when I worked full time and didn’t have much time for canning. These days, I would need an entire freezer just for tomatoes because of how many we are growing, and the time to thaw them all would make it a longer process. But you are right, freezing them makes all that water drain out so easily.

I worked full time during the height of season, but with the families help, ( the kids enjoy helping out, plus they enjoy the results.) We used to kid around and say, "No worky, no eaty.") We had our own garden plus we took a trip to the garden part of Wa. State and got everything we needed for great Salsas👍and fruit that was tree rip ready to can. The canning was all done for that part in one weekend. I just wish I could still do it. Since I am a widow and its just me and my son, it just isn't workable anymore. Thank you for the trip down Memory Lane.

In Italy we make tomato sauce by cooking whole tomatoes (with skin and seeds) for an hour so. Then the tomatoes are run through a tomato press to remove skins and seeds and it's cooked again for another 45-60 mins till it reduces to a thick sauce. It might seem like a longer process but it involves very little work and the finished sauce is rich and flavourful because you kept the skins in which is where most of the flavour is.

Sarah, You should try using your fruit steamer on the tomatoes as a first step. It removes the water faster than having to cook the tomato sauce down to thicken it. In addition, you get pure tomato juice without any pulp. After, the tomatoes have left the steamer, I run them through my tomato mill attachment to my Cabela's meat grinder twice. You get a much thicker sauce which doesn't have to cook down to thicken it. I dry the skins and seeds in my smoker until the are completely dry and then run it through my blender to create tomato powder. It can then be thickened with a little water to make a smoky tomato paste. This method leaves almost not scrap to throw away.

After I core my tomatoes, I freeze my tomatoes and when I am ready to process them out let the them thaw slightly and the tomatoes pop right out of their skins. And I don't heat my kitchen up trying to process them in the heat of the summer. I wait for a nice cool day for canning! You can also get your thinner tomato juice by catching the juices as they thaw! I also strain my sauce because sometimes the seeds can make your sauce taste bitter.

I've had an accidental "aha!" moment too! After my first batch of sauce (using one of those "juicer gadgets" which will become yardsale fodder) I had cooked a pot for hours to "cook down" to the consistency I was looking for. After 4 hours it still hadn't gotten to the desired consistency and I didn't want to be up 1/2 the night canning, so I processed it as it was. I had about 1/2 gallon left over that I put in the fridge for the next day. When I retrieved it from the fridge, the pulp had risen to the top of the jar and the clear liquid to the bottom. AHA! Now, I pulverize the tomatoes with an immersion blender, strain out the seeds and after I've added all the juice to the pot, I use a turkey baster to suck all the clear liquid out of the bottom of the pan. I put the juice in another pan to process separately. AHA! It has been an enormous time saver. 😉

Then tilt it on the lip of the pot to let it drain (don't have to hold it, just let it rest on the lip of the pot). Then remove the insert and lower it into a clean sink or pot with cold water, then remove the skins. It saves me time from lowering and removing the tomatoes one at a time. They can also rest on the pot lip if I'm busy doing something else without over heating.

I’m loving your channel, good job! I’m a chef of 25 years and half Italian. I agree with some of the other comments to cook your sauce with the skins on for flavor and run it trough a food mill after. It’s another step but you can skip peeling them. This is also why your sauce is too thin ! Tomato skins have pectin which is a thickening agent. (You probably use it making jam) Hope this helps! Running it through the food mill will also take the seeds out.

@adamchurvis1 3 жыл бұрын

Remember two things: 1. The primary flavoring compound in tomatoes is almost identical to the compound that gives roses their scent. This compound is very delicate and highly volatile, in that heat both makes it outgas easily and also break down into other compounds that no longer impart that flavor to one's taste buds. For this reason, try to use as little heat as possible, and for as short a time as possible. Many people make their pasta sauces and pizza sauces entirely off-heat, using only the brief heat of cooking of the finished dish to bring it up to serving temperature. I started doing this years ago and haven't looked back because the difference in flavor is remarkable. 2. To this end, weighing your tomato mass to the gram and then moving the decimal point over two places will give you the number of grams of salt you would need to impart a "soup-like" salinity of 1% to that tomato mass. If you tossed that mass of tomato chunks with that amount of salt BEFORE you started cooking, the salt would greatly speed the leaching of water from the tomatoes, thereby minimizing the amount of time spent on heat, thereby retaining more of the natural tomato flavor. You are most likely going to add salt to the tomato products you can later on when you open and use them, anyway. I hope this helps.

I just had to come back and tell you after watching your video (several times) I said a little prayer my San zarmono tomated, Siberian, and romas would not be ripe for another 2 weeks. Then I promptly ordered the very same roaster you showed on the counter and used to cook down a ton of tomatoes all at once. My cooker arrived 1 day before harvest day! Yeah! That roaster is one of the best investments I ever made. I cooked down 3 five-gallon buckets of tomatoes in one day and canned them ALL in the same day!! This roaster is a "Must Have!" Thank you bringing my attention to it!

Great information. I have way too many slicing tomatoes and not many paste tomatoes so this video was perfect timing. We learn so much for y’all and we appreciate it so much. God bless you and your family. Take care and keep it up.

Brilliant! We do a lot of fermenting, canning and pickling on our channel but have yet to have a bumper crop of tomatoes that we could do a worthy video on canning them. After watching this I am seriously rethinking my own process. Separating the juice off and canning it as juice instead of rendering it down and losing it is an awesome idea! Thanks!

This is my first year canning, so far I'm loving it! One tip that i learned from this video on top of all the tomato stuff is that my air bubble popper can be used to measure head space lolol who knew? Thanks for the great video and info! :)

I have thought about this before but had not tried it. Having seen you do it I tried it today. It worked just fine. The sauce was ready much faster. This also means less risk of burning the sauce at the bottom of the pot and should also mean less energy used. So good tip.

I use my pasta pot with its strainer to blanch my tomatoes? No need to do them one at a time, and strain all at once. A real time saver! Been doing our tomatoes too. Have done diced, whole, and sauce so far. Also did some juice using you brilliant idea of taking the juice off when making sauce! Works great! Due to digestive problems I must remove seeds and skins with my tomato processor.
