Hi Sweet Friends, Today I am showing how to Water Bath Can Crushed Tomatoes. This is an easy Step-by-Step Tutorial perfect for those who are new to water bath canning. Please let me know if you have any questions. I'm always happy to help! Love, Mary
Mary's Nest : awesome recipe, thank you. Now I have to get some canning supplies 😊. Talking about canning supplies, I went to the links provided in your video information and I noticed that you link everything directly. Did you know that Amazon has a component which you can link all things related to theirs site under a page that you make and when someone opens it they pay the same amount as in a direct link but they give you some money for each item. It is only pennies on the dollar, but it adds up. I just thought I would tell you this in case you didn’t know. Have a nice evening sweet Mary!
@@nicolehervieux1704 - Oh Nicole, you are such a sweetheart! Yes, I have a link in the description that goes to my amazon "influencer" page (that gives me such a chuckle!! I am hardly an "influencer"!! LOL!!) You will see the main link under all the individual links. I put the individual links because I hate to make folks "hunt and peck" for stuff! LOL!! I do have all the canning supplies curated on my amazon page but I don't know if I can link to those individual curated lists or just my main page. Thank you so much for any advice you can offer!! You are such a doll!! Thank you SO much for being here!! Love, Mary
Mary's Nest : ohhh, wonderful! Lol... I did not see that earlier. Very nice page, I should read everything before I write something, that will teach me. Have a good night!
@@nicolehervieux1704 - Oh Nicole, You are looking out for me and I really appreciate that!! So glad you like my page. I really worked hard to try to curate things and make it very neat and easy for folks to navigate. I had so much fun doing that!! Yes, you have a great night too!! Thanks again for all your help!! You are wonderful!! Love, Mary
Mary's Nest: I can’t thank you enough for this video. I have been searching for a recipe & video that explained canning tomatoes. I always wanted to have homemade crushed tomatoes, especially when tomatoes were in season and being married to an Italian I am always in need of tomatoes :) than store bought!
I love that you give so much detail, covering virtually everything. New canners (like me) really appreciate the details other people assume we already know!
In Italy they don't even use a canner. They just put the very hot sauce or crushed tomatoes in the jars, turn them upside down and cover them with heavy blankets and let them cool over night under the blankets. They've been doing that for centuries.
Thank you Mary. I am in my fifties and was raised part time in foster homes. I have had no confidence in myself learning most my live. But your video are so clear...really clear. You have taught me so many new things.
Mary you explain things so easy to understand, I have done canning for a few years, but I learned so much today. Thank you for sharing this info, I feel we are never too old to learn new things. I love the red on you, it's very pretty, blessings sweet friend
Thank you SO Much for all the kind words!! I really try to do my best and be very clear - especially for beginners who may be nervous about all this! I am so happy you appreciate it - even as an experienced canner!! Love, Mary
You really do a wonderful job of explaining and anticipating questions that would naturally come up. I so appreciate your videos. So glad you mentioned keeping the skins to dehydrate.
This is the best canning tutorial I’ve seen! I’ve done freezer jams, but just bought a water bath canner and am trying my hand at tomatoes this weekend. This video is beyond helpful to me as a newbie canner - thank you!
If you are doing lots of tomatoes, your ice will melt quickly in the ice water bath.. Try freezing water in clean plastic milk jugs, clean orange juice cartons, etc. Then you have nice larger blocks of ice that will not melt as quickly in your ice bath, and you can do several rounds of cooling without emptying your ice cube bins.
Hi Mary! Wendy here and what a thorough video. You really take the extra time to make sure that your canning is fail proof. I sometimes wonder how many people have successfully preserved food by watching your videos. Take care friend, love Wendy and Andy. He’s my old man with four legs🐕
Hi Wendy, So nice to "see" you!! Yes, I remember Andy!! Thank you SO much for the kind words. I am so happy that you find me thorough. I really want to be especially for folks who are new to canning. I don't do a lot of it because I prefer fermentation but canned crushed tomatoes are great to have on hand in the pantry - along with homemade/home canned jam!! YUM!! Thanks so much for being here!! Love, Mary
Thank you so much! You're the only one who has explained exactly why you only tighten to finger tip tight that I can remember. Great explanation about allowing it to vacuum seal. Thank you so much. Your tutorials are so great because they explain everything to newbies like me.
this is the BEST how to on this. you are a rare excellent canning teacher in that you follow safety procedures, but still make it clear and understandable. I find that usually the only people I can follow are doing things you aren't supposed to.... thank you so much! planning to gift some crushed tomatoes from my garden for xmas this year and now I feel ready
I just followed you step by step. Thank you so much for reading it down and making it easy for all of us. I wish you were my neighbor ❤😊. But happy your on you tube.
Good Morning Mary. I just came across this video today. I’m using it as a teaching tool for getting my daughters into canning. I don’t have anything to add because you were very complete in the tutorial. My girls are beautiful grown women now. They are humble which makes them teachable. I’m still sharing my experiences with them, especially as it relates to food preservation. Thanks so much for your videos.
I thank you for being so thorough with your explanation. Too many online cooks/teachers seem to assume the audience knows more about the processes they are talking about.

Seriously this is the best water bath tutorial I've seen! Thank you for so much detail description! The finger tight tip is very helpful, and I would have just naturally tipped the jars when removing to pour off that little bit of water. Thanks!
I so appreciate your explanations, about the oxygen & finger tight. I tried canning decades ago however, the can ing book stressed botulism can happen. I was scared…

Mary, I just love watching you work. You make it all look so easy. The one thing I don’t have is the little jar measurer. Ickiest to keep mine in warm water , too. That’s how my mom taught me. You are a font of knowledge. Thank you. Oh…you look so beautiful in red. It’s definitely your color.
I have canned tomatoes before with great success. I have to say that I absolutely LOVE your kind smile and in depth explanation if the process! I never thought to check the jar rim or the finger tight method reason! Thanks so much, you're awesome!

I wish I was younger, this is fabulous. In addition, an electric canner what a nice item as I have a glass top stove, and mfg says flat bottom cookware. Many many thanks Mary nice a specific. Waving to you from Michigan
I would love to spend the day shopping for produce at the farmers market and cooking and canning with you Mary. Such a wonderful woman. I would learn so much. 🙏🏼💜🇨🇦
I just love watching you, you are very thorough and knowledgeable. Fantastic at explaining in detail everything. Thank you so very much my dear you are an amazing and beautiful person! God Bless you and your beautiful family. ❤️☦️❤️🙏🏻
Hi Rob! That is so funny that you liked that too. I got a bunch of emails about that!! I will have to make a video making one! LOL!! Yes, I think there are so many of us out there who like simple homemade things rather than having to buy yet another "gadget!" God Bless, Mary
Outstanding tutorial. Listened to it a few times to get the gist of tomatoe canning. Canned 10 quarts but made the mistake of tipping two quarts upon removing them from the canner: not bad, though, for a first time effort. We shall see how the quarts sealed in 24 hours....
Hello Mary, thank you for your beautiful explanations and tutorials. I absolutely love your videos. I have a question. I followed your process and at the end of this process my crushed tomatoes seem to have separated the tomato and water. I was wondering if this is normal or if there is a reason that this has happened. Thank you so much!
Mary, So excited to see this. Thanks for explaining your reasoning about salt or not. Especially appreciate tip about the pectin breaking down. Never heard that anywhere! Great tutorial. So appreciated.

Firstly, thank you for your attention to detail. It really clears up a lot of confusion. Secondly, if I don't precooked my tomatoes do I still boil for 45 min in quart size jar? Or do I extend the boiling time?
There is so much information and value given in your videos and I can really appreciate that. I've been away for a while but now I'm back and looking forward to learning so much from your videos :).
Apryll Wil - Hi Apryll, You are so sweet! Thank you for the kind words. I’m so happy that you find my videos informative. I’m so glad you’re here!! Love, Mary❤️😘❤️
Your videos are so informative Mary. Your great details are really welcomed and today i received one of the books you recommended in a different video and have spent all day browsing and planning. I am a home grower and and avid home cook. Have always made jams and chutney, I will now go further. Thank you.
Thank you for the video. I am always interested in canning. So far I have made jellies the water bath canner and beans and soup in the pressure canner. Haven't tried tomatoes yet, but I will. Started doing Keto diet, so I need a pantry filled with things that have no sugar added.
Thank you SO much for visiting!! Glad to hear that you are looking forward to canning tomatoes!! Yes, with the Keto diet you will need to look for a lot of low sugar options. I have a KETO BONE BROTH VIDEO!! (Sorry to make you search for it but YT prefers that we not put links in comments.) And I have another video where I talk about low-carb veggies that are great for using in KETO BONE BROTH. I am going to be looking into making more KETO recipes. Are there special things you are looking for? So glad you're here!! Love, Mary
This is an amazing tutorial. I can see now that in my canning efforts in the past I have done so many things wrong. I have a question about when the jars go into the water. I have seen jars covered and covered just up to just below the rim. Which is correct and should everything you can be covered completely with water in the canner?
Love your videos. I heated my jars in a 200° oven for 20 minutes because my metal wire rack in my water bath canned kept making the water dirty due to being rusty.
Thank you, Mary, for another great video!!! I just got home and now have both a water bath canner and a pressure canner!! WOOHOOO!! Now, I just have to find a Farmer's Market. They're hard to find where I live and since I live in TN, you'd think they'd be easy to find ... nope!
Also, I have a recipe that calls for adding a little bit of instant tapioca. Is it ok to can an item that has tapioca? or tapioca and a little bit of butter with it?
Hi Tammy, Those are great questions! You want to make sure that the Vitamin C you are using is 100% Ascorbic Acid. If NOT, do not use when ascorbic acid is required for acidification as in canning tomatoes. As to using tapioca in canning....I wouldn't use it. I think you will be very unhappy with the results. Tapioca tends to gum up and get lumpy during the heating process of sealing the jars. Love, Mary
@@MarysNest Thank you very much, Mary. The recipe said you could freeze it but it never said anything about canning. It is a Peach Butter recipe. I truly appreciate your help. Hope you are having a great weekend.
Great question. I think that would work as long as yo heated up the tomatoes again. You only want to put very hot food into a canning jar before canning. Also, be sure to check with the National Center for Home Food Preservation: nchfp.uga.edu/ Love, Mary
My tomatoes are on the stove as we speak! I’m a first time canner and I think your tutorial is the best by far!! Thanks so much for such a detailed tutorial! 😘😘🍅🍅
You really are such an amazing teacher, an absolute natural. You are so thorough and clear. I really appreciate you sharing your knowledge, especially since I don’t have any family members to teach me these things. Learning through watching is so much more informative and enjoyable than reading. I have a question, if I may, I understand that oxygen in the jar is something we do not want, but what if we see oxygen in the product after it has been sealed ? For example some chutney that I made had some small bubbles in it even though I did de-bubble and it did seal. Another time a jar of pickled tomatoes had tiny bubbles all around the tomatoes after it had sealed. I’m a bit concerned. Thank you so much.
I followed your directions to a tee. My question is whether or not it's normal for a few bubbles to come up? I know some of it is air between the band and the jar, but I think some of it is air from inside the jar. From what you said, I might assume this is OK because the lid is not air tight until a vacuum is achieved - is this correct? I even noticed a tiny piece of tomato in the water - whether or not that was from inside the jar I don't know. For tightening, I tightened lightly by hand until it stopped, and then approximately a 3/4" turn after.
What if you don't hear the plink or see the indent in the lid? Does that mean it didn't seal? I also see pockets in the jar without the relish/sauce I made. Does that mean there's still air in it and unsafe for shelf? Thanks so much!
Mary I love your videos thank you so much. But I do have a question may I use my pressure cooker for a water bath canner? Just not add the pressure gauge?
I have just watched your video on canning crushed tomatoes before I actually get started. Thank you for explaining everything. I have one quick question. When you say you remove the rings after the jars have cooled 24 hours do you mean you actually remove the rings and store the jars just with the lids or do you mean you loosen them a bit. Sorry maybe I am over thinking things. Thanks
So happy this video was helpful. Yes, you completely remove the bands/rings. The lids should be very tight and stay in place all on their own. If not, the jars will need to be re-canned or refrigerated. Love, Mary

Mary, I just love watching you work. You make it all look so easy. The one thing I don’t have is the little jar measurer. Ickiest to keep mine in warm water , too. That’s how my mom taught me. You are a font of knowledge. Thank you. Oh…you look so beautiful in red. It’s definitely your color.
I have canned tomatoes before with great success. I have to say that I absolutely LOVE your kind smile and in depth explanation if the process! I never thought to check the jar rim or the finger tight method reason! Thanks so much, you're awesome!
Oh! And I adore that yellow in your kitchen!!!!

I would love to spend the day shopping for produce at the farmers market and cooking and canning with you Mary. Such a wonderful woman. I would learn so much. 🙏🏼💜🇨🇦
I just love watching you, you are very thorough and knowledgeable. Fantastic at explaining in detail everything.
Thank you so very much my dear you are an amazing and beautiful person!

Excellent demo Mary🎉
Do you need to press and check the seal after 12 hours?
Love canned tomatoes in any style!!
Hi Denise, Thanks so much for visiting!! Glad you like this video. Love, Mary
Thank you so much! Getting ready to can sauce and cut/petite diced tomatoes❤
Great job, I really like your personality, you would be great for a cooking show.
I absolutely love this video you're so detail oriented, I will be subscribing.
Love the tip for using the lids in the bottom of the pot. Simple but effective!
Thanks for this how-to video.
Rob
Hi Rob! That is so funny that you liked that too. I got a bunch of emails about that!! I will have to make a video making one! LOL!! Yes, I think there are so many of us out there who like simple homemade things rather than having to buy yet another "gadget!" God Bless, Mary
Thank you! Been looking for more ideas for tomatoe preservation.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Always learning new things. Happy Friday
Wonderful! Is there any particular Traditional "nutrient dense" Food preparation you're interested in learning about? Love, Mary
This is EXACTLY the video I was looking for. Thank you!!
Outstanding tutorial. Listened to it a few times to get the gist of tomatoe canning. Canned 10 quarts but made the mistake of tipping two quarts upon removing them from the canner: not bad, though, for a first time effort. We shall see how the quarts sealed in 24 hours....
Fantastic video from start to finish
I just canned 14 pints! Thanks Mary!!!
Love your videos ❤️ you explain everything so I can understand
Excellent video!! I feel much better watching your video and gaining confidence in trying this process. I also love your smile! Subscribed. Thank you!
Very informative. Thank you.
Thank you Mary ,learning canner.
Great detailed instructions, very informative video! Thank you for your help.
Hello Mary, thank you for your beautiful explanations and tutorials. I absolutely love your videos. I have a question. I followed your process and at the end of this process my crushed tomatoes seem to have separated the tomato and water. I was wondering if this is normal or if there is a reason that this has happened.
Thank you so much!
I wish I would have watched this video before doing my first water bath canning tomatoes today. That's all I'm going to say lol
Mary, So excited to see this. Thanks for explaining your reasoning about salt or not. Especially appreciate tip about the pectin breaking down. Never heard that anywhere! Great tutorial. So appreciated.

Great video thank you for all your helpful information
Your videos are very informative.
Firstly, thank you for your attention to detail. It really clears up a lot of confusion. Secondly, if I don't precooked my tomatoes do I still boil for 45 min in quart size jar? Or do I extend the boiling time?
I absolutely love how you go step by step and explain why you do what you do. I am going tomato picking as our not up yet. Thank you. Tremendous help.
I did not know about the pectin ! Thank you 😊
I just love your explanations🤗🤗
There is so much information and value given in your videos and I can really appreciate that. I've been away for a while but now I'm back and looking forward to learning so much from your videos :).
Apryll Wil - Hi Apryll, You are so sweet! Thank you for the kind words. I’m so happy that you find my videos informative. I’m so glad you’re here!! Love, Mary❤️😘❤️
Your videos are so informative Mary. Your great details are really welcomed and today i received one of the books you recommended in a different video and have spent all day browsing and planning. I am a home grower and and avid home cook. Have always made jams and chutney, I will now go further. Thank you.
Thank you for the video. I am always interested in canning. So far I have made jellies the water bath canner and beans and soup in the pressure canner. Haven't tried tomatoes yet, but I will. Started doing Keto diet, so I need a pantry filled with things that have no sugar added.
Thank you SO much for visiting!! Glad to hear that you are looking forward to canning tomatoes!! Yes, with the Keto diet you will need to look for a lot of low sugar options. I have a KETO BONE BROTH VIDEO!! (Sorry to make you search for it but YT prefers that we not put links in comments.) And I have another video where I talk about low-carb veggies that are great for using in KETO BONE BROTH. I am going to be looking into making more KETO recipes. Are there special things you are looking for? So glad you're here!! Love, Mary
This is an amazing tutorial. I can see now that in my canning efforts in the past I have done so many things wrong. I have a question about when the jars go into the water. I have seen jars covered and covered just up to just below the rim. Which is correct and should everything you can be covered completely with water in the canner?
I have 2 quart jars where the lid did not seal. Can I transfer the contents into pint jars and reprocess?
Love your videos. I heated my jars in a 200° oven for 20 minutes because my metal wire rack in my water bath canned kept making the water dirty due to being rusty.
Thank you, Mary, for another great video!!! I just got home and now have both a water bath canner and a pressure canner!! WOOHOOO!! Now, I just have to find a Farmer's Market. They're hard to find where I live and since I live in TN, you'd think they'd be easy to find ... nope!
Wow!! What great find!s Keep me posted on all the wonderful things you make. Love, Mary
Thank you very much Mary…so well explained 🥰
Thank you so informative
I love your pots!
Thank you very much...
Hello Sweet Mary, Is it true you can add like 3,000 u of Vitamin C and crush it up in place of the citric acid? Love, Tammy
Also, I have a recipe that calls for adding a little bit of instant tapioca. Is it ok to can an item that has tapioca? or tapioca and a little bit of butter with it?
Hi Tammy, Those are great questions! You want to make sure that the Vitamin C you are using is 100% Ascorbic Acid. If NOT, do not use when ascorbic acid is required for acidification as in canning tomatoes. As to using tapioca in canning....I wouldn't use it. I think you will be very unhappy with the results. Tapioca tends to gum up and get lumpy during the heating process of sealing the jars. Love, Mary
@@MarysNest Thank you very much, Mary. The recipe said you could freeze it but it never said anything about canning. It is a Peach Butter recipe. I truly appreciate your help. Hope you are having a great weekend.
Hi Mary. Could I make the crushed tomatoes one day, refrigerate, and then can them the next? Thanks. Love your videos. so informative and clear.
Great question. I think that would work as long as yo heated up the tomatoes again. You only want to put very hot food into a canning jar before canning. Also, be sure to check with the National Center for Home Food Preservation: nchfp.uga.edu/ Love, Mary
Your videos are so very helpful, thank you Mary. 🙌🌻
My tomatoes are on the stove as we speak! I’m a first time canner and I think your tutorial is the best by far!! Thanks so much for such a detailed tutorial! 😘😘🍅🍅
Thank you for the tips. I actually canned them with the skins on and seened tolike them. Have you ever canned with the skin on?
Love it! Thank you so much!!!
I absolutely love you and your content! I’ve learned things from you I never even learned in Culinary School! Lol
I LOOOOOOVE her so much!!!
Hi Amanda! Thank you SO much!! Love you too!! Mary❤️🤗❤️
You really are such an amazing teacher, an absolute natural. You are so thorough and clear. I really appreciate you sharing your knowledge, especially since I don’t have any family members to teach me these things. Learning through watching is so much more informative and enjoyable than reading. I have a question, if I may, I understand that oxygen in the jar is something we do not want, but what if we see oxygen in the product after it has been sealed ? For example some chutney that I made had some small bubbles in it even though I did de-bubble and it did seal. Another time a jar of pickled tomatoes had tiny bubbles all around the tomatoes after it had sealed. I’m a bit concerned. Thank you so much.
I followed your directions to a tee. My question is whether or not it's normal for a few bubbles to come up? I know some of it is air between the band and the jar, but I think some of it is air from inside the jar. From what you said, I might assume this is OK because the lid is not air tight until a vacuum is achieved - is this correct? I even noticed a tiny piece of tomato in the water - whether or not that was from inside the jar I don't know.
For tightening, I tightened lightly by hand until it stopped, and then approximately a 3/4" turn after.
Hi Mary , question can you buy the #10 can of tomatoes like dice or crush and can them as well . along with WATER BATH METHOD
Great video, this will be my first year canning and I love that this is so exact. Thank you!
Thank you for your great videos. Learning a lot about preserving food. 💕
How much lemon juice would you use for a quart jar of tomatoes ? Thanks for all the info in your video.
What if you don't hear the plink or see the indent in the lid? Does that mean it didn't seal? I also see pockets in the jar without the relish/sauce I made. Does that mean there's still air in it and unsafe for shelf? Thanks so much!
Mary I love your videos thank you so much. But I do have a question may I use my pressure cooker for a water bath canner? Just not add the pressure gauge?
Great question. It seems like it would work but I have never tried it. Hopefully others will chime in. 🤗
Can you use the same method to can fire roasted peppers?
I have just watched your video on canning crushed tomatoes before I actually get started. Thank you for explaining everything. I have one quick question. When you say you remove the rings after the jars have cooled 24 hours do you mean you actually remove the rings and store the jars just with the lids or do you mean you loosen them a bit. Sorry maybe I am over thinking things. Thanks
So happy this video was helpful. Yes, you completely remove the bands/rings. The lids should be very tight and stay in place all on their own. If not, the jars will need to be re-canned or refrigerated. Love, Mary
