When you are overwhelmed with fresh tomatoes, just throw them right into the freezer whole and deal with them later! Really! At the end of our bumper crop of tomatoes this summer, we were so overwhelmed with everything that needed to be accomplished, that we "took a risk" and threw our extra tomatoes in the freezer whole. We are excited to share with you that we have figured out an easy way to use them! Check it out! You'll be freezing your tomatoes next year! We guarantee!

I have been freezing tomatoes for more than 20 years. To shorten your work time even more use the tomatoes right from your freezer. I double bag the tomatoes, lable the bags with date and use the oldest first. When making chili or spagette sauce etc. just take a tomatoe and hold it under warm to hot water for about 10 -15 seconds and the skins slide off. Then core the stem from the tomatoe and toss the frozen tomatoe into your chili or whatever your cooking. The taste of the tomatoe is so fresh like in the finished meal. Good luck.

A funny story years ago my wife and I processed tomatoes like you have with the machine that separates the Pulp the seeds and the sauce. We also had three pigs we never like to waste anything so the pulp and seeds we mixed in the pig food and of course they loved it. However the next spring the pigpen had thousands and I mean thousands of tomato plants we were giving everyone in the neighborhood as many tomato plants as we could talk them into and the plants produced phenomenal harvest. Keep that in mind if you are on the Homestead and you're raising pigs they'll love the treat and you're loving the results next spring

I see so many people talk of peeling tomatoes before making sauce or juice and I do not understand that. Tomato peeling has the vitamins in it and makes the juice thicker and better tasting---I am 75 and learned from my mother and grandmother, boil tomatoes with peeling on until soft, run thru a MILL to grind the tomato peeling and juice thru and remove the seeds at same time. Thick juice, thick sauce. Just as she has done in this video

A great use of cherry tomatoes is to throw them on a cookie sheet with garlic (peeled), olive oil and onion. Roast in the oven. Slightly cool and throw into a blender or food processor and blender them up. I then can them and use as a base for spaghetti sauce, etc. the peels on the cherry tomatoes just blend right up and you don’t even know they are there.

If you had taken a little bit of time on the front end you will save a lot of time if you are processing it for diced or stewed tomatoes.

I'm happy to see a video that I always promised myself I was going to make for others. You and Kevin did an excellent job! I freeze tomatoes all the time because I live in Southern California my growing season is very, very long - nearly the whole year! So I'm always up to my ears in tomatoes and once I have processed and made all the bolognese sauce, marinara sauce, soup, chili and tomato passada to feed an army, I usually do wind up freezing what's left over. I throw in everything from heirloom cherry tomatoes to beefsteak heirlooms to different varieties of hybrids and it makes some pretty amazing product. I save the "defrosting liquid" and it makes one hell of a tomato consomme! But I digress. I grow some of the same tomato varieties each year so the taste of my sauce products are delicious, unique, and fairly predictable. But this next year I'm going to add some paste tomatoes to my garden to it to give things more of a rich overall flavor. Thanks again for the video! Great work and thank you!

I also chop up onions, potatoes when I chop up potatoes I have a large pot with water that I have added lemon juice to so they stay white, summer squash, and other veggies. I then make a frozen mix of a gallon. when I get ready to make a soup I have a ready mix to go in. I also use the mix to make breakfast burrito's.

I did this and it is working great, somethings I did differently was I washed off and cut out the stem button and any spots before freezing, it is a good step to catch an occasional bad tomato that looks good on the outside but isn't inside. When I thawed them I didn't just dump the tomato water, I gave it a quick boil to sterilize it, not sure if that is absolutely necessary, then I cool it and drink it, it is delicious. Also the end product is so much better than what I have produced before because there is so much less water, without hours of boiling.

I found your site yesterday. I really enjoy your videos. Freezing tomatoes is what I do too. you can do the same with soft fruit. I do it with plums (pitted) blackberries, raspberries...etc. Helps to accumilate enoough fruit to make a batch of sauce or jams and jellies.

It's been a few years since I've canned tomatoes and used this method. Oh my gosh I just thawed about 6 lbs and a 11x7 dish is half full of water! Looking forward to nice thick sauce!

My garden exploded and I had so many tomatoes I didn't know what to do with them. I watched this video, and I put them in the freezer until I had time to get to them. Thank you!! Would love your BBQ sauce recipe. I followed this video and it worked perfectly! HAPPY HAPPY. I will do the same next year too.

Thank you, I just traded some eggs and got a big bag of tomatoes, I was afraid they'd go bad before I got to use them all now I know what to do with them, genius.
