Processing tomatoes - removing water from tomatoes - canning tomato sauce

[@brianczuhai8909]

Good to see you address the issue WITH TOMATOES HAVING A LOT OF WATER. Nobody else does. I recommend: - Cut in half or quarter. - I use an electric all-in-one cooker. I add 2 cups of water and high pressure cook them for 20 min. - When cooled, dump the mix into a stock pot with a colander on top. - Pull the skins off with tongs. - Put the remaining pure tomato meat into containers for freezing. - After a few hours you can pour off the water at the top in the stock pot. Keep doing that. Tomato juice will be left to use/freeze. The seeds will be at the bottom. Discard that.

[@cameroncooper4175]

Sorry, it's not "Water", it's "Wadda".

[@kasimfarahani2122]

good job on a nice sunny day with family,I like your video,just a small suggestion from me in Iran, please dont throw the remain of milled tomatos away,in Iran we dry them and then with a miller we make it powder and then add it to the tomato paste or sauce,,,,it makes your sauce more nutritious and tasty ,,please have a try, respect from Iran.

[@bowhunter2439]

sounds like a great idea , we ll give it a try this year...!!!

[@kobe5rings]

good idea

[@lyflyk1530]

🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@leelaural]

I've done that....made my own tomato powder....

[@floraleone7651]

GOOD JOB

[@nofear2934]

I strain off the water, and use it as stock for vegetable soup. The soup comes out delicious!! You can freeze the stock, and it keeps a long time. Waste not, want not!

[@anthonytriolo3643]

The water is the flavor of the tomato it determines the taste of the sauce.When you have people that do not know you get do not know taste of the sauce.

[@oorlando904]

This is the right way to make tomato sauce. I have been making sauce for 30 years and it's great to see a video like this demonstrating how to do it right.

[@Neiljonesfoodcompany]

Thanks for sharing this video! Always nice to see other people as passionate about tomatoes as we are.

[@phillipsmom6252]

Your a really good dad keeping your daughter by your side like that. She won't forget. Great memories for her. Looks great,thanks for posting. I'm jealous, my tomatoes are still green!!!

[@EZGlutenFree]

What an outstanding system. I love to see you passing down this tradition to the next generation. You can't beat fresh tomatoes.

[@michelecook5708]

EXCELLENT! Demonstrted exactly what I needed to know in an essentials only format. Others just love the sound of their own voices?

[@j.d.1488]

Nice video. With friends we do 20 bushels plus. After cleaning and coreing and parboil the hot tomatoes are dumped into a basket lined with old table clothe material. Then scooped up and into the milling machine. You do a nice job my man. Nice video

[@415orazio]

I enjoyed your video. Thanks for sharing. I too can tomato sauce every year from our garden. Canned about 50 qts. last year and my process is very similar to yours. But one thing I do differently, is after separating and collecting all the "water" I put it in another pot and cook it down on high heat, while the sauce is simmering in another pot. The "water" then cooks down and thickens fairly rapidly, and when it has reduced it to a fairly thick consistency, I add it to the sauce pot. I find there is some great flavor in the condensed "water" that adds to the sauce. Just thought I would throw that out there.

[@bowhunter2439]

415orazio I do the same thing now

[@stevenkirby4364]

AMAZING video! I was wondering what the brand and model number is for the tomato grinder you use in the video? I would love to get my hands on one of those!

[@dbaker0226]

I love your videos. I bought a omra last year and did my tomatoes just like you did and had enough to last from Sept to May. Because of your video I even received an Italian stamp of approval. :) This year I grew three times the amount of tomatoes and is now processing another 30 jars to add to my already 40 and I still have at least another two bushels of tomatoes left to pick. You and Ashley keep up the good work and thank you!

[@elhaniabdessamad9515]

Thank you for your effort but how do you determine the expiring date for consumption on the jars ?

[@RozCorieriPaige]

I used San Marzano plants this year . . . excellent. Now why do you put salt in your jars? Doesn't it make the taste super-salty? Good demonstration that we'll have to try.

[@diannaa6189]

Roz Corieri Paige the oxheart, San Marzano and Romas are the best meaty & tasty tomato for sauces in my opinion

[@nunyabiznis817]

The canning salt is used as a preservative and recommended by Ball. However, you can use any salt that is pure salt. No, that amount of salt in a 1 qt. jar isn't going to make it salty. Of course, taste is subjective.

[@hopeloves5390]

Love it... Whaa-Da (Water) Great Video Thanks for sharing

[@JERSEYTOMATO]

Amazing - beautiful sauce --

[@bruce350]

I understand the purpose of removing the liquid is to reduce the amount of time it takes to thicken the sauce via evaporation. However, is the liquid actually water (I think not) or is it tomato juice which actually contains some of the goodness and flavour of the tomato? Low and slow temperature will evaporate without removing the goodness surely. Just a thought!

[@joannemalys5990]

Bruce u

[@joannemalys5990]

I agree . Throwing away juice

[@Marcel_Audubon]

The 'juice' is 99% water, dullards ... go ahead and leave it in, if you insist! Enjoy those wet, watery (oops! I mean 'juicy') plates of food that everyone will laugh at as they reach for more bread to fill up on.

[@maxwebster7572]

I drank some of the water and it tasted like clear tomato juice. Personally, I leave it in, under cook my pasta and then let it soak up the water. It's the wrong way to do it but at $25-30/ bushel here the max we can push is about 19 quarts. By removing the water we would be close to $2 jar. If I had property I would grow tomatoes.

[@hotties3v3n]

Cook it off. It ain't that serious or hard.

[@benchkey]

Made my own before, but learned a few tips from your video. Thanks

[@karenewald5451]

I make catsup. Years ago I started changing the directions and canning the watery part instead of boiling it for hours. I put the onions in the bottom of my biggest pot, add the cut up Roma's and gently cook them until tender with out stirring them. I drain them with a fine sieve, run the pulp through my Squuezo and proceeds with the directions for catsup. I can all the watery juice to add to soups. It saves me hours of boiling off the excess liquid and adds a great taste in the soups.

[@DaveCurtis-b3u]

Do you water bath or pressure cook the jars after you put the sauce in jars?

[@rebeccas5288]

Bow!! Great work..just wondering did u use salt or sugar

[@bowhunter2439]

Always canning salt

[@VladTheImpalerTepesIII]

I have pretty much the same exact setup. The only difference is I use a stove inside, not an outdoor burner. I've tried both methods (cooking down the tomatoes before milling vs. milling the raw tomatoes. I see no difference in the quality or taste. So now I just mill them raw. Much faster and less work. For 2 gallons of puree from the mill, it only takes 1.5 to 2 hours when boiled on high to reduce the puree to half. The result is a nice, thick bright red puree, just as thick as your.

[@DianeStPeter]

Which mill or strainer are you using to process these tomatoes? Could you please post the specs? How many Horse Power? Thanks! I understand this machine is no longer available but there are other brands that might match the specs

[@Ladiebuglane1]

This video couldnt come at better timing! We just got a bushel of tomatoes in our organic csa! Wathed this right before we started the process! Songlad I did because squeezing them before putting then through our old Romaa crank realky kept that beautiful fresh omatoe look to our sauce! Plus Innever thought of adding our basil right to the jar! Thank you so much!! Going to stalk the restof your vids soon :)

[@MrClipper500]

Never thought of softening the tomatoes before they go through the mill. My old gardenway squeezo is worn out and I am about to purchase a motorized version. Yours came from Italy. Not sure if its 110 volt or 220 volt. You really can not appreciate homemade canned tomatoes until mid winter.

[@pinpointdeadcenterspoton2386]

It takes effort, patience, focus, time, determination & preparation. *A TRADITION TAKES "HONOUR & PRIDE!!"* Making sauce takes just over half a day to complete. Approximately 13-15 hours. We make 2 different types of Sauce. Pasta Sauce, strictly made with only Roma Tomatoes. & Pizza Sauce, strictly made with vegetables. We make our Roma Tomatoes that we do every other September. 30 cases X 15 jars in a box. That's 450 jars of pure, original & natural, fresh Tomato Sauce & Pizza Sauce. *Dislikes are the people that simply don't have what it takes. The type of people that eat canned Tomatoes & Ragu their entire life because they don't know what pure, original & natural, fresh really is at all.*
