Fill a freezer bag with tomatoes, single layer. Close the ziplock bag except for enough room for a straw. Suck the air out of the bag through the straw, pinch the straw to block air from releasing as you finish closing the bag. This removal of air helps prevent freezer burn. I have seen others core and score before freezing or freeze them whole. Personal preference, either way works. I just froze several bags of slicers and a bag of cherry tomatoes. Had to pick anything blush or orange to get ready for an early freeze and snow tonight.

My wife makes the best sauces-all the way to ketchup. We plant 18 to 24 plants and collect our tomatoes into the freezer during the course of the summer. Do not waste the nutrients found in the skins. After thawing the tomatoes we boil them down, along with peppers and onions, and run everything through our Victoria strainer. We then add sugar, salt, pepper and other spices and cook the sauce on down to the desired consistency...and can the results. We generally process at least 5 bushels of tomatoes and make all of our own, homegrown tomato products. We make it to our taste-rave reviews.

Even easier, I wash and core my tomatoes. Then, I put them in a food processor...skin and all...pour the mix into freezer bags and freeze the bags on trays so that they lie flat. Great for stews and sauces and saves lots of time.

@plantsoverpills1643 3 жыл бұрын

I used to do this also, however according to some accounts, skin and seeds should always be removed as they make the sauce bitter and contain unhealthy lectins. So I started removing both skin and seeds through a food mill and the taste is definitely better.

@lmenges1 3 жыл бұрын

@@plantsoverpills1643 Thanks for this info! I did some research (read both sides) and discovered the jury is still out on whether lectins are unhealthy. I've been freezing tomatoes for at least 30+ years. I have never noticed a bitter taste. I'll continue to watch for any new information forthcoming. Thx again!

@andrewrigby4960 3 жыл бұрын

I used to do the skinning trick myself but still find it takes some time. The best way I've learned so far is a very simple sauce recipe that all goes into an oven roasting tray, tossed in oil, herbs and garlic, skins and all, roasted at 180 degrees C and then blended up. Reeeeaaaally tasty and ready made sauce.

So excited to see other ideas on the channel. Some great tips here. Last year I blended my tomatoes, then froze each ziplock bag flat on a cookie sheet. Then the flat bags stack beautifully in the freezer, takes less space and thaws quickly. I’ve also seen putting the blended tomatoes in ice cube trays, freezing and then putting the frozen cubes in a bag. You can then put one cube per tablespoon in recipes. So excited to see the “blossoming” of the channel. Hope you, Emilie and Noah had a great vacation! ❤️🍅😀

Thank you. A great tip for removing pesky skins. Can your canning friend - perhaps after dealing with tomatoes - also show us how to preserve other vegetables, such as beans, peppers etc? I feel that “gardening” includes not only seed selection, growing for transplanting, soil maintenance etc, but also preserving the harvest for off-season use. Knowing how to do it properly would be a valuable skill.

I always love your videos. They are str8 to the point and jam packed with practical advice that actually works. I garden in sub-tropical Brisbane, Australia and I find most of your advice translates really well. Summers here are 80- 90 degrees but more humid than yours and our winters are really mild. No frosts and 60 and 75 degrees. I can grow most things year round with the exception of brassicas which have a pretty small window. I have a glut of tomatoes at the moment so I will freeze them rather than can them.

Bon Appétit had an article a few weeks ago that suggested partly dehydrating the tomatoes (in an oven on low, no dehydrator needed) before freezing them, for better texture. It would be interesting to try both methods and see how the results compare.

That is by far the most interesting way I have ever seen to peel a tomato. I mean hands down. I would say that it is a ton easier than the blanching method of peeling as well. Although, the blanching does stop the enzyme from continuing to break the fruit down which happens even while frozen. I'd be curious to see the difference, if any, between a frozen and blanched tomato and the freezer to peel method. If I can remember to do it, I will try it and let you know. Unless, of course, you get to it before me? 🤣

I didn't score them though and I can't remember if I cored them. Oops. Oh well, I'll still use them. :-) The only comment I have is whether or not it is really acceptable to freeze then re-freeze the tomatoes. I figure I'll just take them out when I need to use them for a soup or sauce.

Canning tomatoes is easy because they are acidic and don't encourage mold/bacteria so sterilized jars canned with super hot tomatoes will be OK.. When I had a huge garden , I would cook the tomatoes and either make tomato juice or tomato sauce lightly rendered. The interesting thing about tomatoes that I learned from watching a French chef is that the taste is in the juice and not the meat. He used countless tomatoes.. a lot, I can't remember how many, crushed them, hung them in a sack of loose fibers but not so loose as cheesecloth and then collected the clear fluid, the essence of tomato. He served this "soup" with small ravioli. One of these days I just might try this recipe but be forewarned, you need a lot of tomatoes of the juicier varieties.
