Proper sterilization of the jars is crucial for successful preservation. Here’s the recipe for achieving excellent tomato preserves:
Ingredients for 3 2L jars:
- 7 kg of tomatoes
- Basil, to taste
- Boiling water for sterilizing jars
Preparation time: 15 minutes Cooking time: 30 minutes Shelf life: 2 years
Preparation:
- Slice and blend the tomatoes into a puree, then transfer to a saucepan and bring to a boil.
- Skim off any foam that forms on the surface while boiling, then continue boiling for a couple more minutes before turning off the heat.
- Pierce the tomatoes with a fork and place them in sterilized glass jars. Fill the jars with the tomato puree.
- To seal, immerse the jars in boiling water in a pan to create a vacuum. Store in a cool, dry place.
Ensuring a tight seal and vacuum is crucial for extending the tomatoes’ shelf life. With this method, you’ll always have homemade preservatives at your fingertips, ready to elevate any dish, from a quick spaghetti to flavorful seasonings!
