I grew a bunch of tomatoes in my garden this year. I’ve been freezing them until I had enough for a large batch of sauce. I followed Balls recipe and cooked the tomatoes down, ran it through a food mill and cooked them down again. Added just salt and lemon juice to the jars before water bathing for 35mins. I only had one lid failure, but it was an older lid, so I’m not surprised. I think I’ll make myself some soup with that one tonight (yes, it’s in the fridge now!).

    I done about like how you did your tomatoes. Made tomato soup with it also. Just a really great flavor. Toasted cheese sandwich alongside the soup and yummy

    I’m a newbie to canning. What should I start with?
