Just like the way my mother did them and me also thanks for showing a forgotten way of living

Thanks!

I pulverize my tomatoes like that sometimes, skin & all, then pour them onto a dehydrator tray (one that is solid) & dry them thoroughly. Then I grind them to a powder & vacuum seal them in mason jars. This saves a lot of space & they are great for cream of tomato soup, chili, mixing with spices, etc. When you have an abundance of cherry tomatoes, this is a good method (or use them for fermented salsa).

Ellen Fisher, I make a lot of tomato powder as well, but have never made tomato soup with it. Would you mind sharing your recipe?

Tomato goodness, better than any store bought.

YUM!! You got that right. I'm hoping for at least 50 quarts of tomatoes, as I do the same as John. Use them for all my sauces. I've found its easier to just can the tomatoes & make the sauce fresh each time

They look good and so many uses!

My tomatoes are also starting to get ready. Tasted the first one today. It was soooo good.

Great info. I find doing a batch or so everyday keeps the enjoyable task of canning, from becoming a job. 🍅🌽🍐🍓🍎

wish i could cook like Mr Jnullo. I made tuna in a blender one day pickles/ onions /mayo and/ tuna . mixed it a little to long and the cat didn't want to eat it that was 15 years ago and the family never let me fix tuna again.

Good video. Enjoyed it. God Bless

I love to slice them, add salt and pepper and just eat them that way. Love the video.

Brother John I love your way of life brother God put you in that position to teach and show people how to do certain things if you don't know how brother keep up the awesome work and videos and God bless to you and your family brother.

All of your videos are good. Thank you for sharing with utube land your knowledge.

Hello big guy John hope all is well there with you and your wonderful family. I have been watching your movies and enjoy them so much. You sure are a lot like myself in so many ways my new friend. Wish we could become friends. Well buddy you take care and may our God bless you and all of your family with his Special gift of good health. So bye bye to you all there from Floyd & Jenalyn here in Nova Scotia Canada.

Right there with you on the tomato skins!

My tomatoes didn't do so well this year. I got growth and foliage but few tomatoes. OAG, pretty much said his was like this also. Great and easy way to can tomatoes John, Thank you. Liked, commented and shared.

you could chop onion and pepper too with that and make a salsa that you can have fresh later

I really like your simple approach to getting tomatoes put up. Removing skins and seeds is tedious!!! Especially when you have a lot!! By the way, I noticed that you put your pressure canner lid down on your counter upside down (with dial gauge hitting your counter). I have the same canner and learned the hard way-- you have to protect the gauges - one good knock or bang on it can render it useless!

You're Doing It Wrong!!!!!! LOL!!! My mom would be upset at you for touching the lids and making them pop!!!!! Awesome looking tomatoes!!

DUDE!!!!! Learn so much from your videos

I have canned 14 quarts out of 8 plants. Can you say "Miracle Grow"? I think you can! I scald my tomatoes and skin them. I like them that way. I use a pressure cooker to can tomatoes. 15 minutes at 5 pounds of pressure and they're done!

🍅Good lookin tomatoes🍅 Thanks for the video😀

You are funny!! Canning from our garden this week!!!

man i though this WAS ABOUT FISH LOL GO GO JNULLO GOD BLESS

The 🍅 s look awesome!!

Awesome video. The one thing I did not know and you did it canning. Thanks for the help and this awesome update.

Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and experience! God Bless you brother!

My tomato plants are huge! Like six foot tall, the tomatoes on them are pretty hefty in fact some so heavy they fell off...but they are all still GREEN!

NICE. Thanks for the information.

im still waiting on my maters to get ready- but tomatoes are my favorite thing to can-- i always peel mine- but seeing this im gonna have to get a jar from you and trying it with the skin on- if i like it - it will take my mater canning over the top- love and miss you--- huggs

You too have a good'n Sir!!

Well You learn something new everyday now instead of peeling and all that good stuff which I hate I"m doing it your way save my hands some Thank you Blessings

Highly entertaining video and very informative Jnull0! Thank you for sharing. I only wish that I could grow them here. My potato plants have disapeared with blight and the tomato plants are just setting some fruits but are tinged with blight.

You can peel or not peel, whatever you want. Checking directions for yourself before going. It's great to watch you. Makes it seems so much easier!

Love your canning videos! You always make it so simple!

Love watching you in the kitchen. You're always entertaining. Thank you for sharing.

I missed these videos! So happy you're canning again! Now I'll be waiting to see what delicious recipe you come up with. Regards to Lupita & family hope everyone's doing well. God bless Mr. Dude

Fan-flipping-tastic !! So easy to do !! Definitely going to be doing this this year !! Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experiences and as always happy gardening and homesteading !!

Hi Your tomatoes look so good! Thanks for your videos!

Thank you for keeping it simple. Love your videos.

I loved this video and tried it out for our first canning experience today!!! I linked to you in our KZread video for it! Thanks so much for the wonderful tips!

Very enjoyable. I am just getting into canning and have watched Mrs. Volfie's videos. As a retired teacher I find it never hurts to have more than one source to fall back on.Thank you,V

Pretty easy

Holy Smokes! I spent ALL day yesterday, canning tomatoes. Most of the time was spent skinning them. Next batch, I'll be trying your method. I finally started doing videos, so I'll let you know how it works for me, on one of my videos. Thanks!

Great Job ! I love the skins too. Last year I over planted tomatoes and ended up with 207 Quarts. We trade them with friends for other types of veggies or meat.

Love that you said, "I love tomatoes that taste like tomatoes." I don't know if you were just kidding around, but I completely agree with you. Produce today is grown to promote size and durability--not flavor or nutrients. Most tomatoes that I buy from the supermarket are mealy and have no flavor. The ones that I grow or come from local farms are so sweet and delicious. Anyway, I also love when tomatoes taste like tomatoes!

New sub here. Great video. Thanks!!

That does help. I haven't canned tomatoes yet, but I always wondered about the separation I see with other canned tomatoes. Commercially canned tomatoes don't have that much water in them.

MotherOfManyHorses , if you do a hot bath and bring them to a boil before you put them in jars they don't separate like that. the canning books give both methods.

Maybe that's the method my friend used. As I recall, she did tomatoes and I don't remember them separated. I can't can until I get something better to cook on.

Hey John! Leave the skins on! 😍👀😁✋🏿🤦‍♂️

yum!

now ya got me thinkin jon.

Home canned foods are great to have and enjoy...I would just sincerely encourage everyone to use tested recipes and proper times and methods such as provided in The Ball Blue Book of Home Canning. Reaching and maintaining the proper temperatures for acid and non acid foods are imperative.

Tomatoes are right on the border line of acidity for botulism. Newer Hybrid variety tomatoes are often even lower in acid. You need to add citric acid or lemon juice to bring the acidity up a little more. And there is not approved method WB canning raw cold packed crushed tomatoes.

I spent hours canning tomatoes yesterday, most of the work being the prep work to remove the skin. I'm using my canned tomatoes for the same things as you, so now I'm thinking I won't bother doing the additional work to remove the skin.

thats what I do...good eating

here in Pa. my tomatoes are still green....

Wow tomatoes already ripe? Ours are about just over half ripe.......Seattle Wa.

You can buy a cheap tomato corer for a buck fifty. If you want to save some time, it's an option.

What variety of tomatoes do you plant? Due to a lot of rain in SC my Cherokee tomatoes tasted watery.

so much easier than other videos ive seen, how long do they usually last God Bless

Those are some fine looking maters J, what variety are those? Shay has been canning maters/salsa/rotel for a few weeks now...we grew Bonny's Best and Arkansas Travellers. Not very happy with the Arks but the Bonny's best have been prolifically awesome!

You should add me on juice for the extra acid end needed for safe canning practices

It would be safer to add lemon juice to tomatoes to be sure the acidity is high enough. Ball says 2 tablespoons lemon juice per quart. It does not affect the tomato taste.

Patara sent me! 😍

We always leave the skin on

Skin = fiber🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅

Just found your channel and so far found it informational. Glad you don't sport hunt and eat what you kill. I know this video has nothing to do with hunting.

Critters got to my tomatoes and the plant never flowered again.... sucks to be me buying store bought.

GREAT video!! Thanks so much! :) What kind of soup were you referencing at 0:50?

Love your apron . Where can I find one ? Thanks for the video . L.

Do you have a good "v8" type recipe ? for canning?

Melissa Jennings green beans must be pressure canned. They are a low acid food. With that being said tomatoes need to cave the acid raised by adding lemon juice or the acid ball puts out for tomatoes. This is per the USDA. My advice is to get a ball blue book for reference.

Melissa - go to the USDA's authorized website 'National Center for Home Preservation' nchfp.uga.edu/ to learn all about the safest way to can. They have chapters you can download for free about doing veggies like your green beans, doing tomatoes, making jam, pickles, fruits, etc. There's alot of good free canning info and recipes on the Ball website too - www.freshpreserving.com/. You have to pressure can green beans, however if you pickle them you can water bath.

What kind of jars do I need and why don't the glass break. Iv not done this yet 😊

@jeanettewaverly2590

You need to get canning jars, which are tempered to withstand the high temperatures of water bath and pressure canning. The main brands of these in the USA are Ball and Kerr. They are sold by the dozen and come in a variety of sizes. You can find them in many retail outlets, including supermarkets, Family Dollar-type stores, Wal-Marts, and in some hardware stores, including Lowe's and Home Depot. They're probably available online as well. Before you start to can anything, I'd advise you to purchase a copy of the latest edition of the Ball Blue Book: Guide to Home Canning, Freezing, and Dehydration. It's often on the shelves near the jars and other canning supplies, and it's easily obtainable on Amazon. It's the "Bible" of home canning here in the US. Canning can be fun, rewarding, and economical, but it can also produce deadly botulism and other pathogens if not done right. Not trying to scare you off -- just trying to point you in the right direction from the get-go. Happy canning!

Also, it seems that you're raw packing cold tomatoes in their own juice and thought i heard you say you processed 25 minutes per quart - if so, Ball says crushed raw, cold tomato quarts should be water bathed 85 minutes. If you add boiling water to cold tomatoes, it's 45 minutes, and if you boil the tomatoes, it's 45 minutes. Not being 'mean canning police' - just want you all to be safe!

These kind of issues make me scared to can! I have the ball book and then there's folks on youtube that do it differently...Every time I open something I canned I'm afraid I'm gonna die if I eat it...but I do anyway! LOL...my family doesn't like what I've made so far, pickled green tomatoes and pickled watermelon rind that did come out nasty. They did like the hot peppers I canned I lost the recipe when Misty Prepper took down her channel. I think it was just vinegar and water 50/50 with a bit of salt to taste. I have lots of cukes and I am going to make hamburger dill slices. and maybe dill relish!!

Always look up on your own and follow an authoritative source such as Ball or USDA to verify any canning recipe on you tube, internet or in vintage cookbooks against the safety standards we have today. An example is covering jam with parafin wax - now we know it's best to can in water bath canner to avoid mold spores getting under the wax. I love Misty but some of her canning methods were not safest either. You can go to the USDA's authorized site at National Center for Home Preservation and download the canning chapters you want for free - you have to look around a little but it's all there nchfp.uga.edu/ . I don't like green tomato stuff either - or dill. Best wishes as you pursue the 'thrill of the ping' (meaning the lids sealing with a ping).

There is no approved method according ot NCFP for crushed raw tomatoes only whole or halved. Maybe ball has one. I always use NCFP's free book. I cringe when I see people doing canning videos and not following approved methods. It is one thing to risk your own family for months in the hospital on a ventilator, with permanent partial paralisys and and possibly death. It is different to show other people how to do it without telling them it's not a approved safe method.

@frugalprepper

If you don't follow and approved method the ping may only mean you have created an ideal environment for botulism. I am doing a canning 101 series on my channel. I have a 20 minute video on the myths and truths of botulism poisoning. It is important to understand what can and can't cause botulism to grow.
