Ingredients
Ingredients for a standard canner load (7 quarts):
- 21 pounds Fresh, whole tomatoes any variety
- 14 tablespoons bottled lemon juice
- 7 teaspoons pickling salt
Instructions
- Prepare standard canning jars and lids according to manufacturer’s directions.
- Peel and core tomatoes. Leave whole or cut into halves or quarters.
- When all tomatoes are prepared, fill one jar at a time, keeping the other jars hot while you work.
- Add 2 tablespoons lemon juice and 1 teaspoon salt to each quart jar
- Pack tomatoes into jars, pressing gently on tomatoes until the juice fills the spaces between tomatoes. Leave 1/2 inch headspace.
- Remove air bubbles.
- Wipe rims of jars and apply two-piece canning caps.
- Process in a boiling water bath 85 minutes for both quarts and pints.
Notes
- Processing Times for both pints and quarts -- 85 minutes up to 1,000 ft altitude. Adjusted processing times for higher altitudes: 1,001 – 3,000 ft, 90 minutes; 3,001 – 6,000 ft, 95 minutes; above 6,000 ft, 100 minutes.
- Jars and rings may be reused multiple times; lids must be discarded after one use.
- Keep a kettle or pot of boiling water on the stove to top up the water in the canner when needed.
- Tomatoes may be canned in pint jars if desired. For pints, use half the amount of ingredients per jar. Processing time is the same.
- To check for a complete seal: Remove the ring from the jar. Gently press down on the center of the lid. There should be no movement up or down. Then very gently pull upward on the outside edges of the lid. If the jar is not sealed completely, the lid will come off. Any unsealed jars can be stored in the refrigerator and used within one week.
