Recipe Description

Much healthier than from a can. Worth the work. I usually use 1 full case of Italian Style tomatoes from the market and it makes about 10 quarts. Amounts here are approximate to accommodate the program.

Steps

Sequence	Step

1	Wash tomatoes in cold water. In a large pot of boiling water, blanch tomatoes for about 2-3 minutes. Plunge tomatoes into cold water. Core and slip the skins off. Chopped or puree in processor - depending on how you want your finished product. We never use whole tomatoes so we puree now to save time later.
3	If you figure that you are left with 4 quarts of tomatoes, add 4 tablespoons of salt. If you only have 3 quarts, add 3 tablespoons. Each time you do this will be slightly different depending on how much water is in the tomatoes that you process.
4	Stir in the salt and bring to a boil. Hot pack into hot, sterilized quart jars and seal. Let cool and store for 1-2 years in a cool, dark place (like a pantry).
5	Use for stews, soups, tomato sauces, lasagna, chili, etc.
