Let's can tomatoes together and get ready for freeze drying! - A YEAR OF TOMATOES!
Let’s can some tomatoes together and get some ready for freeze drying! My tomato garden is a bit of a bust this summer, but that’s not stopping me from preserving enough tomatoes for a year. I’ll show you how to can tomatoes you didn’t grow so you will hopefully feel excited and confident about preserving food from farmers' markets and local growers. Since I have enough tomatoes for a year, I’m freeze drying the peels, leftover parts, and extras. So, along the way, I’ll also show you how I am prepping the tomatoes for freeze drying and ensuring nothing goes to waste.
