#Cooking with Anabel’s

Thank you to Dilmun Hill and community members who attended the tomato preserving event Sunday! We made about 50 pounds of delicious sauce and learned about the benefits of preserving. Check out the process below! Keep an eye out for our next event, a community dinner with pickled vegetables from a previous event :)

To Sauce

  1. Wash ripe tomatoes

  2. Optional step to remove the skins by blanching the tomatoes

  3. Remove the core and roughly chop into chunks

  4. Add to food processor and blend until desired consistency

  5. In a pan heat up olive oil and add chopped onion then garlic

  6. After the onion has cooked until translucent  and garlic is browning add the tomato base

  7. Stir the sauce and bring the pot to a boil

  8. As the water evaporates, the water will thicken

  9. Season with herbs, salt, and pepper until desired taste

To Can

  1. Sterilize jars: either boil in hot water or place jars in the oven at 200 degrees. Clean lids with hot soapy water

  2. Add citric acid to the jars, amount depending on jar size (¼ tsp for 16 oz.)

  3. Add hot liquid into the hot jars leaving 1/2 inch headspace

  4. Before putting the lid on wipe off excess sauce in order to ensure a good seal

  5. Put lid on and lightly screw the ring on

  6. Bring a pot of hot water to a boil and add the jar in using canning tongs

  7. Leave jars in boiling water for 40 minutes

  8. Gently remove the jar using tongs and set aside for 24 hours

  9. Do not touch the jars until the 24 hours is up and make sure you hear a ping to ensure the jars have properly sealed

  10. Once the jars are sealed, move to final storage

  11. Do not eat anything that looks or smells off :)
