Thank you for posting this recipe (or receipt) as my g-g- used to say!!! I used this method when my kids were little, been freezing it since, sigg-o says they don't taste the same, I agree. We have lost lots to power outages, hence back to canning!! Will save that for the pepper jelly!! We have had neck & back surgery in the last 10 months, so even tho our hippie brains know it is the way to go...USDA also ddates sour cream and yogurt! who knew?! hugs jan Hey ya’ll!

It's my understading when you can anything you need to cover 'it' in liquid and leave a head space (or just leave a head space on jams and such). As long as it seals and stays sealed--you should be fine. Thanks for visiting. Sis Hey Tina–Some evaporation is expected when canning.

Will it compromise the tomatoes? Thanks When I can tomatoes in a pressure cooker some of the liquid from the jars evaporates, is this okay? Will it compromise the tomatoes?

I fill mine to the bottom of the neck and let the salt sit right there. You can stir it in if you want to. Happy canning! Sis Hey man, thanks for stopping.

I also added a little fresh Garlic & Fresh Basil so when I open a jar I will be ready to make great gravy... I am in the process of trying this method, will let you know how it turns out.
