50 lbs of Tomatoes into Canned Spaghetti Sauce | 3 Tips & Updates

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

In this video I will share my process for canning tomatoes by turning them into spaghetti sauce for quick and easy meals during the fall and winter. I also share 3 tips so pay close attention, they will help speed up processing, extend your tomato harvest and reduce the acidity in your sauce flavor. Tell me in the comments if you found all three!
I also share a couple updates on Abigail's time away at boot camp and how our exchange hosting experience is going so far.
The recipe I used for the canned spaghetti sauce is below ( I doubled it):
Homemade Canned Spaghetti Sauce
25 lbs of Tomatoes
5 Onions
4 large red bell peppers
1 large green bell pepper
4 (6oz) cans of tomato paste
1/4 cup Coconut Aminos
3 Tbs Worcestershire sauce
2/3 cup Brown sugar
1/4 cup salt
10 cloves garlic, chopped or minced
3 Tbs dried oregano
3 Tbs dried basil
2 tsp red pepper flakes
2 bay leaves
Lemon Juice
Process tomatoes removing skins and core and quarter.
Chop Onions and Bell Peppers and saute until translucent.
Mix all ingredients in cooking vessel and bring to boil.
Reduce heat and simmer for 4-5 hours.
Add 2 Large carrots for the last 30 mins to absorb some of the acidity.
Use your immersion blender for a smoother sauce if desired.
Add 2 Tbs of lemon juice to the bottom of every quart jar.
Fill jars to 1/2 in headspace
Wipe rims of jars and seal with lids finger tight.
Process in Water Bath for 40 mins.
Yields ~10 quarts.

    Rachel, (11-28-22) I just canned 14 quarts of spaghetti sauce from your recipe using frozen tomatoes from our garden. I let them thaw in the giant freezer bags that I froze them in (adding tomatoes all season until the bag is full...I had 3 giant bags full). The skins & water are naturally released from the tomatoes as they thaw, which makes them thicken more quickly when cooked. I used your recipe last winter as well. We love this sauce! We think it is the best sauce we have ever eaten! Love your channel!

    Wow!! I had no clue that I could make my own brown sugar like that!!!! I bet my 76 yr old mother doesn’t even know about that!! I’m loving all your tips!! I never know what I’m going to learn when I watch your videos! I absolutely love them I’ve been binge watching as I do my household chores and when one of your tips come along I’ll find myself sitting with my mouth open in awe and I just am so thrilled by all the stuff I’m learning! I’m an avid cook but I haven’t done any canning, my parents used to do it but I would always think why are you doing that when you can go to the store and buy a can of sauce for .79cents?!(1970’s Canadian prices) of course now Learning of all the “stuff” inside our food products due to mass production and not knowing exactly what we are getting in our food I’ve definitely learned the value in growing our own food and preserving it and discovering how much better homemade foods are over the store bought and of course it’s no longer that cheap to purchase a can of sauce more like $4.99 (Canadian prices for the good organic stuff) if I can even find it that cheap! Thanks again for showing all your wonderful tips and tricks and how much you are able to produce from how many pounds of produce. Absolutely loving your channel! I’ve even gone back and watched some of you’re early videos when you were just beginning your KZread journey and it’s so fun to see how you navigated to get where you are now and just how comfortable you are in front of the camera! You should be very proud of all you’ve accomplished over the years!!! Hard work, determination and a true heart shines through. Take good care wishing you many more blessings. I hope your daughter continues to enjoy her military experience it’s clear to see how much you miss her but just know you’ve raised an independent and strong young woman who is going out into the world and conquering it in her own way. Even though they don’t write or call as much as we would like them to I know they think of us often, trust in knowing she can hear your very words in her head when she needs you and your wisdom. God bless you & your family. 🇨🇦🥰🙏🏻

    Good morning Rachel, I watched this video AGAIN last night (July 2022) after watching you for over a year. I watched you process your harvest and make sauces so many times. Last night I pulled out all of my red tomatoes 🍅 from the freezer…it actually ended up being approximately 25 lbs…so exactly to your recipe! I chopped up my green peppers 🫑 from garden this year and two large onion 🧅 over night. This morning I added my seasonings 🧂 🌿 and now I’m processing only 4 quarts of spaghetti sauce. As disheartening it is yo only get 4 jars for the pantry, I’m still excited that it’s homegrown and homemade! I actually like the sweetness of the sauce with a little kick from the red peppers. Thanks for sharing. Oh yes, you were right, we smelled the sauce all night….not sure I like that smell all night. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Happy canning this year!

    After watching your videos for a while, I was prepared to try this recipe for canning this year. It was a hit! I tweaked it a bit by substituting Italian seasons since I already had that on hand, and by using my tomato powder in place of paste. My mother said it's the best sauce she's ever had. So looking forward to a great year of spaghetti! Thanks so much!

    Looks delicious and I bet it smells as good.I am Italian an grew up making homemade sauce with every female Italian cook in my family and there are many, thank God. I did not ever hear about the carrot thing and some put sweet peppers in their sauce and some did not. My Mom liked her sauce without sweet peppers so I grew up without mostly, unless we were eating with relatives who cooked them into the sauce. Good tomato sauce is a very personal thing, my family did not make it sweet. We liked the tomatoes to shine. I have two sons who cook very well, one likes the only sweetener to be oregano and the other one has his own recipe which is very delicious. He is only sharing it with his son who is a chef and is my only grandson. I have one grown granddaughter who makes delicious sauce and she likes hers a little on the sweet side. So sorry to run on so much. But I love good pasta sauce with fresh tomatoes and your show brought back so many wonderful memories with loved ones who have passed to a better place. I miss all of them. Thank you for sharing. My oldest son retired 3years ago after 20 years in the Marine Corp. he was a Major at the time. Thank your daughter and your other family member ?? For their service. They are all my heroes.

Have been canning for years and honestly when i first started out I knew nothing about it and was self taught but over the years found out certain food safety things such as now you’re supposed to just wash your lids in soap and water not simmering them and that you need 1-2” of water above your jars when water bath canning! Apparently its pretty important. Loving the videos you’re so entertaining and funny at times. I learned how to make brown sugar today! SO COOL! Happy gardening from CA!

    Another late one to the party! I really don't care for spaghetti sauce much but when you have kids and grandbabies you cook what they love. I always add grated carrots to sauce as it cooks down as a thickener and natural sugar source. What I really love are onions, peppers and carrots chunked up in freezer to add to the sauce as I'm using it. They add additional flavor and I get to pick them out to eat. Win win for me. The kids also like the chunks. I don't think you could improve to much on this recipe. I have a 22 qt. Cooker that should have died long ago after using it for sauces, broths, hams cooked picked apart and diced to use in dry beans. Really canning is a never ending therepy session. I enjoyed watching this even though I'm late

I will cook the sauce, when ready to use at a semi boil tho and that get the extra juices out and thickens it up nicely.

You also had mentioned in one of your videos that you were pondering the idea of canning some milk but were unforsure about it. I just wanted to let you know that I did do that two years ago and the first year it tasted just like fresh milk . This is the second year I have a little left and it tastes more like store bought evaporated milk - just not that thick- so I call it a Winner for when you need some milk on hand. Thank you so much for sharing of yourself . You are so awesome. : ) Granny from Va

I scored the big ones and cut them into quarters and put them in peels and all. It grind them all up. I didn't have to boil to skin them. I did boil the sauce after. I put the spices in each pint jar and fill with sauce. It was so easy to do. Will do the rest as the tomatoes ripen in the same way.

    I found a used Oster electric roaster this weekend. I paid $20. When I looked at it closely back home, I saw that it had never been cleaned as well as it should have been. There is a lot of baked on grease around the upper sides of the inner pot. I soaked it, scrubbed, it, used baking soda and vinegar but I think it is going to be impossible to get it all off. I’m wondering if I cook a full pan of tomatoes, or anything really, will any of that residue affect what is cooking in the pan? I would hate to lose my product, not to mention time involved.

    I use that same tool to core my tomatoes before I freeze them. I also put an X on the bottom so as they thaw I only have the skins to slip off.

    I froze mine last year too until I had time to process. I was not happy about using them because I went from freezer to roasting so unless I actually have to I wont do that again unless I use them for recipes. So far Ive done about 60 lbs of tomatoes and processed them as sauce, tomatoes and salsa. I make sauce without seasonings. Just salt and citric acid. Its no big deal to add garlic powder, onion powder and Italian seasoning. I like the flexibility of using my sauce different ways. Thanks for sharing and reminding me I can make my own brown sugar. LOL! Back to canning. I have about 100 lbs to go!

    Forget tomato paste. Add freeze dried zucchini! Instant thickener! Just used your recipe and only had two cans of tomato paste. Husband does not like zucchini so o add it shredded in things like brownies, bread and soups but I always have a surplus. So I freeze dried shreds. Instantly soaked up liquid! Now I’m filling jars.

    Hmm ... I'm just preparing spaghetti sauce for tonight's dinner. I have a bunch of super-ripe (non- plum) tomatoes, garlic, shallots, oregano - all collected from my garden. I could use frozen spaghetti sauce in my freezer, but I just wanted to try "winging it". Normally, I prepare a large batch with frozen plum tomatoes, add the usual dried herbs with fresh sweet peppers and mushrooms. I don't think I have sweet peppers or mushrooms but I don't think that will be a big deal. I just want to see what it would be like to use "normal" tomatoes and fresh-from-the-garden herbs. As I write this comment, I'm planning how to do this and you mentioned a couple of things I might try - maybe adding a little brown sugar as well as some tomato paste. Thanks for the ideas. And, BTW, I'm making a small portion of sauce - maybe four servings. Nothing like your gargantuan batch! I just felt like experimenting. Cheers.

My tomatoes are coming in but not a bunch at one time yet to start my spaghetti sauce. I want to make sure my tomatoes do not go bad so can you please let me know how you freeze tomatoes? Do you put the whole tomatoes in freezer bags and that’s it or is there a few other steps? Thanks a bunch!!

    Put them in a bag, and into the freezer. When you get enough, just pull them out. The skins will slip right off as they thaw. This video goes over it: kzread.info/dash/bejne/kXd6y9Zskq6wnLA.html

    I put all my tomatoes in my sink, pour boiling water in it. Let stand while I do other prep. You tongs to let the water out then let the plug suck back into place and put cold water in the sink. They arebready to be skinned. Dry the skins for powder and go a head with cooked tomatoes.

    SAVE SOME TIME. I LEARNED THIS AWESOME TRICK FROM LIVING TRADITIONS HOMESTEAD. IF YOU HAVE A HIGH-SPEED BLENDER LIKE A VITAMIX. I spent all this time peeling the skins and I was going to dehydrate them as some have suggested but I still had them. PER HOW SHE DOES HERS WITH THE SKINS, I put them in my vitamix blender with some of the sauce which I cooked in an oven roaster over night on 150 degree and had done really well to cook down. I blended the sauce with the peels and it thickened the sauce even more. It turned out great. IT WILL MAKE MY NEXT BATCH A BREEZE.

    I am trying this method this year, I am guessing after removing skins and core you don't worry about removing seeds? I am making my sauce with a variety of tomato types and some have more seeds than others and I tried to remove as much of those seed sacks as possible, but I don't feel like putting this through my kitchen aid processor to remove more seeds, is that bad?
