4 WAYS TO PRESERVE TOMATOES.
1. HOME CANNED TOMATOES
A pantry staple that is less work than you
might think, these beauties are the first step to getting hooked on preserving
tomatoes. I can mine by the quart, which holds about 8 medium Roma tomatoes.
2. HOME CRUSHED TOMATOES (CANNED OR FROZEN)
Crushed
tomatoes take up less space than whole and this version can be preserved either
in the freezer or on the pantry shelves after processing.
3. HOME CANNED MARINARA SAUCE
Having
homemade marinara sauce on your pantry shelf is a dinnertime lifesaver because
it means that you’re never more than 20 minutes away from a meal that you can
feel good about.
4. SLOW COOKER TOMATO KETCHUP
Ketchup
is perfect for the slow cooker because it takes a long time to cook away the
excess liquid. Cooking it low and slow, rather than quickly on the stove, will
help bring out a depth of flavor that lets the summer tomatoes shine and makes
ketchup even more delicious.
