I would love a Harvest Right but the price is astronomical for the average person. I assume there are costs of upkeep and to use it too.
And a higher electric bill.
I make tomato powder from the skins of the tomatoes I can. I like to just put it in some olive oil and dip some nice crusty bread in it. Also used it as topping on a fresh marinara with pasta. I have used it in a variety of cooking but I do not find it stand out enough unless you use a lot.
We use our powdered tomato in home made BBQ rubs
Im using my tomato powder to make tomato paste, sauce and juice.
I was just thinking it must be a reasonable substitute for tomato paste!
How do you do that?j
@@IPursuePeppers-CTH I freeze dry and powder them, then add enough water to make whichever you want.
Great idea!
For those without a freeze dryer, but with some freezer space, here's what you can do when you have an abundance of tomatoes: Puree the tomatoes and pour them into a jar, then freeze it. Later on when you have more time (maybe in the winter?) you can use that tomato puree to make salsa or pasta sauce by boiling it down to thicken it and intensify the flavor. Any kind of tomato is fine, you don't really need traditional sauce tomatoes to use them like this.
This video is about freeze drying . Get over your self go to another canning or freezing channel don’t try to shame him because what he’s doing .
Wow, what is your problem? What a ridiculous interpretation! How can you possibly draw the conclusion that my comment is about shaming him? It was just some advice for all the other subscribers who have a pile of tomatoes but will never own a freeze dryer, which very few people will purchase. You get over YOUR self-righteous internet police attitude.
I never realized how totally cool a freeze dryer is. There is so many ways to use the freeze dried tomatoes.
I made tomato powder for the first time last year, for sauces and paste. I used larger tomatoes, and a regular Cosori (not a freeze drier) dehydrator. It was SO much easier than boiling down sauce...Just add water to the desired consistency. I may have to try it for cherry tomatoes next year, as snacks.
For a lot of people the cost of a Harvest Right, with the smallest model at $2200, is off the table. Anyone is able to can tomatoes with a box of jars, a jar lifter, and a big pot for less than $100. So if your garden and budget are small, try canning. UA-cam videos tell you how.
Wow, that’s a lot of money! Couldn’t do it.
And that’s not including the electric bill.
Why are you watching this video if you don’t want to freeze dry?
This is a freeze drying video why don’t you go over to them. Channels to can up or dehydrate your food . Oh wait crab away your helping him with your comments good or bad 🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪
Thanks for the tip! I’ve got 11 tomato plants (Black moon, Money maker, Gardeners delight and Shirley) I’ve grown just for myself in my house😂 so tomato powder might be the way 🍅🍅🍅
This dude is the absolute shit. I love him. Gardner Scott-thanks for existing.
This is completely new to me. I’ve never heard of making powders from tomatoes before. Thank you… you are expanding my knowledge once again
I dehydrate the skins and then powder them. I add the powder when making tomato sauce in place of tomato paste. Thickens The sauce.
i went with all cherry tomatoes this year and love snacking on them. Freeze Drying is a great idea, i am overun with them right now and i am sure i will love getting a jar of dried tomatoes when the snow is falling. Now to get more jars.....
Love freeze drying tomatoes and making powder. I do this with larger tomatoes as well, same process, thinly slice, freeze dry (or dehydrate) and then powder. I keep my powder in a pint jar and spoon out as needed, add water to make sauce for topping meatloaf, making soup, over pasta, pizza, basically all the ways I'd use marinara or tomato sauce.
I have used tomato powder from dehydrated skins to increase the tomato flavor in dishes and sort of a thickener. Also I add to taco meat. TFS 🍅👍
To slice cherry tomatoes quickly put them between 2 saucers and cut between with a bread knife.
Some vegetables a mask should be worn when powdering as they can make you cough or worse. Celery flake is one 😊
I’ve read some use tomato powder to make paste.
Wow - that looks excellent - both freeze dried AND the powder. Cherry tomatoes have a lot of advantages! Thanks for the great video.
Chili powder and tomato powder for enchilada sauces!
My head exploded. You're amazing. Tomato powder !!
The powder is probably a good thickening agent too.
Wow! How cool is this! I never would of thought of using that!
That was interesting and totally new to me. Thank you
Takes cherry tomato garden candy to the level of midwinter cherry tomato candy.
If they last that long. I find I eat them sooner than I plan.
Scott, what do advise about freezing the whole tomato, both large and cherry varieties in order to keep them into the winter?
I've started doing that for making tomato sauce in the months ahead. They get mushy when thawed so a sauce or soup is a good way to use them.
Potato chips/ crips uk here
Can't wait to FD tomatoes this year 😊
I was wondering if anybody has used tomato powder to make an instant tomato soup? And, if so, what else did you add to the mix?
💙👍
the tomato powder is a fantastic idea tnx
Good job Scott . I had to save a bit to get my freeze dryer . So happy with it .
