I love macaroni & tomatoes, & Butter!!! Granny's nails are so pretty. When my boy was little he called them, "chicken pops!" I make green tomato pie, spices make it a lot like apple pie. All the best from, Canada. 🍅🫑🎃🍁

Good to see y’all. I have never tried canning green tomatoes by themselves. I do put them in chunks with peppers in hot pepper sauce and they are hot but oh so good. Bless y’all.

[@GrannyWomen]

Yum!!!!!

[@lindakimberly4170]

love me some fried green tomatoes! I wait all year for the first tomato sandwich and the first fried green tomatoes. While I've canned green tomatoes in the past, the results were less than spectacular. Thanks for the recipe! I'm looking forward to my garden giving me the goods!

I sure enjoyed your video. I love fried green tomatoes. I'm going to try and can some...

[@GrannyWomen]

[@glendacrosbywilkins4246]

Thank you so much for this recipe..!!! How long will they last in the jars this way?? Just curious..

[@GrannyWomen]

Ours get eaten pretty quickly during the year. Never really had one go bad. We do tend to eat or give away most things we can within 2 years.

[@dianelefever3961]

Since your not going to water bath these, do you tighten down you rings tighter? These look great

[@dixiemcduffie6693]

Yes I do. They turn out great. Just remember ti have your brian really hot

[@rodnawilliams9398]

do you mind telling me what variety of tomatoes that is? they produce such even sizes and the colors are exceptional .. thank you for sharing this .. also how long do you leave the jars inverted like that please? i remember doing jelly like that with my mom as a child. But i dont remember how long

[@GrannyWomen]

From Memaw: Those are early girl and better boy tomatoes And I leave them up side down until they cool and seal.

[@helenhill-lw7ek]

Wow that was so interesting I hope you do a lot more videos I'm going to do my fried green tomatoes that way I always have water bath them but no more I'm doing it your way what about squash and potatoes

[@GrannyWomen]

We have about 200 episodes on our channel! Thanks so much for watching!

[@reginarenoude1098]

Did you put them in room temp jars?

[@dixiemcduffie6693]

Yes I did

[@estherishmael-oku212]

I was wondering when I flipped one jar right side up, a lot of bubbles bubbled to the top. The tomatoes were supper big and had to really push them in. I debubbled all the jars before adding lids and rims. The jar was sealed. Should I be concerned about the bubbling? Thank you.

[@estherishmael-oku212]

Also my tomatoes faded in color. Is that normal?

[@GrannyWomen]

From Memaw- if they are bubbling, they will probably unseal. She said she would put them in the fridge

[@georgiaowen2469]

Maybe there wasn’t enough headspace in the jars?

[@bissybee007]

How long can i store than?

[@GrannyWomen]

Ours are typically gone by the next year

[@sonnywaugh4914]

What is your recipe for canning green tomatoes

[@GrannyWomen]

They don’t really follow a written recipe much Depends on amount of tomatoes She walks through how to do it this episode

[@dennistmenace4207]

i did this recipe and it started fermenting and popping the lids

[@GrannyWomen]

Hmm not sure what happened. We’ve never lost a jar before.

[@dennistmenace4207]

i pulled and rinsed them bagged and froze them but i cooked two quarts and they were perfect idont think a cup of vinegar per two gallons of water is enough vinegar@@GrannyWomen
