Well this was not very messy or exhausting. My neighbors said I could pick their tomatoes while they are on vacation for two weeks. So I did this:

I will probably do it again when these get ripe enough:

yum! @Finnie :)

after i get the jars sealed and cooled completely i put the date/batch number on them and shake them a few times to get the air bubbles out and to settle the contents down into the liquid.

tomatoes are pretty easy considering how much they can produce and i love the flavor they bring.

i used to do tomato juice but i've not done that for many years now as it does mean more work to food mill them.

I didn’t know I could shake them! I was kind of wondering about the ones floating above the water -or should I say juice- line.
