Thank you for the very through instructions. Tomatoes are my favorite, I’m an old woman, I spent my years as a nurse, careening for others and am just now canning. I do have memories of helping my Grandmother doing so the old way. I just love your video.
I have never canned as of yet, however, I have blanched skins off tomatoes and then laid dried the skins seasoned with onion and garlic powder and then pulverized the dried skins into a powder to then use to season soups, stews, gravy, sauces, eggs or anything I wanted to give a bit of umami.
I think NCHFP recommends skinning tomatoes for safety reasons. Sort of like how peaches are supposed to be peeled because of the bacterial load in the skin. I core my toms before I throw them in the hot water. I love how the skins just slip right off. Thanks for sharing!
Great question. The lemon juice doesn't affect the taste. Many old Italian and Greek recipes can tomatoes without any lemon juice and tomatoes are safely canned. However, I've decided to follow the current practice of adding some sort of acid.
@@sandylewis8897 thank you for your question. It does not. I stopped using lemon juice, because I never have enough. I now use white 5% vinegar. It does not affect the taste, but keeps more safe for water bath canning.
Please reply to me I thought that when you were Rob pack them in jars, you don’t need to add water because the juice will come out of the tomatoes but I don’t know😂
@@lulishomestead6767 now that I reviewed it does say that if you are canning with tomato juice it IS 85 minutes - I apologize but it says tomato juice and talks about store bought … I did your video and used the juices the tomatoes made so still not sure… to be safe I water bathed for 85 minutes
Can you water bath the juice from the tomatoes that you canned with the seed in it I water tomatoes for pints 40minutes so is it safe for the left over juice

Hello to my fellow NURSE!
nurses reunite!
I have never canned as of yet, however, I have blanched skins off tomatoes and then laid dried the skins seasoned with onion and garlic powder and then pulverized the dried skins into a powder to then use to season soups, stews, gravy, sauces, eggs or anything I wanted to give a bit of umami.
Saving tomato skins is a great idea!
Great idea! I plan on dehydrating all of the skins and parts remaining after I cold can mine.
Canning tomatoes is the very beginner of canning toughness. Definitely give it a try, even if it's a single jar.
Very nice cold pack tutorial Luli 💯
Thanks
So great, thanks for posting.
Stay gold.
😊
Excellent video!🍅🍅🍅

Thank you for the post.
You have some interesting videos ,I’m subbed.😊
I’ll be canning tomorrow. This time of year is so busy! I do boil my lids tho. Thanks for all the great content!!!
Look at the lid instructions. Most new lids do not need to be boiled
Let’s get hot anyway just like the charge it’s hot in that boiling water
I enjoyed your instruction video. HOW long do you process pint jars??
Thank you! This was great!
Glad to share
Thank you, very helpful 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻♥️
Thank for your good recipe! Salutations cordiales depuis le nord du Québec, Canada!
Hello Canada 🇨🇦
Very interesting... Instructions very simple to follow. Thank you Luli🌷
😉
Hi I do mine the same way, I have for 30 years and I only put teaspoon of salt and they have never gone bad
I hear you! These "new" canning books made everyone on the edge with fear of botulism
What type of salt do joy use?
Does the lemon juice you add change the flavor?
Great question. The lemon juice doesn't affect the taste. Many old Italian and Greek recipes can tomatoes without any lemon juice and tomatoes are safely canned. However, I've decided to follow the current practice of adding some sort of acid.
Does the lemon juice affect the tomator flavor later?
@@sandylewis8897 thank you for your question. It does not. I stopped using lemon juice, because I never have enough. I now use white 5% vinegar. It does not affect the taste, but keeps more safe for water bath canning.
@@lulishomestead6767 Great to know. Thx!
You CAN taste the lemon
@sheilahtaylor3005 not at all
Thank you for this! Can I blend my tomatoes down and follow the same recipe?
Please reply to me I thought that when you were Rob pack them in jars, you don’t need to add water because the juice will come out of the tomatoes but I don’t know😂
I did not add any water to my jars
how long do the last like this ....
I use it up within a year or two
Why do you have to boil the jars?
With that much lemon juice doesn’t it the tomatoes taste lemony???
Surprisingly no
Thank you so much
How much lemon juice or citric acid to 1L jars?
Are you sure those are quart size jars 750ml? They look larger.
I use 1-2 teas poons of lemon juice per 1 L jar or about
Thank you mam
Much easier to heat up/boil the tomatoes first, then jar and give a quick 15-20 minute bath, done!
I use that method as well
your time is WRONG even Ball complete guide to canning requires 45 minutes for quarts and in your video you state 85 minutes. that is wrong
Maybe I'm using an old book
@@lulishomestead6767 now that I reviewed it does say that if you are canning with tomato juice it IS 85 minutes - I apologize but it says tomato juice and talks about store bought … I did your video and used the juices the tomatoes made so still not sure… to be safe I water bathed for 85 minutes

HOT pack is 45 minutes, COLD lack (like the video here) is 85 minutes.
question? do you ad water constantly into the pot or just let the water evaporate?
