Great score on the tomatoes-WOW!moolie said:Got a great deal on 50 lbs of organic Roma tomatoes at the end of the day at the Farmer's Market today, so guess what I'm doing tomorrow...
indeed, I was very happy! We stopped off at the end of the day to see if there were any deals and hubs bought 25 lbs of simply gorgeous Romas (still on the vine!) while I was chatting with another vendor. When I got out to the car and saw the crate I asked him about the price, and then told him to go right back and see if they had any more--he came back with a second 25 lb crate!BarredBuff said:
It really pays to get to know the vendors at your local market, we've been buying from this vendor for 5 or 6 years now and he just gave us the tomatoes in his plastic crates, trusting us to bring them back next week
Here's the 8 pints plus 2 half pints of salsa I made today in addition to 11 half-pints of raspberry jam (story in my journal):
8 pints with glass lids plus 2 half-pints salsa
11 half-pints of raspberry jam (first time ever using Pomona's Pectin, seems to have worked great!)
I still have most of the tomatoes left to make into tomato sauce, chili sauce (hoping that a recipe I found recently will taste like what my Grandma used to make, I was too young when she passed away to have thought of asking for her recipe), and probably some more salsa.
