what to do with leftover tomato juice & frozen tomatoes
Comments (12)Someone clued me to freezing tomatoes hen we had too many to eat and not enough for a batch. I love it! So much easier than the vittorio strainer or food mill. I wash and core, slice off the blemishes, and freeze in a bag. When time allows or the freezer is full, just slip off the skins, whiz in a blender, and can the juice. No cold break in the finished juice and very little mess. Seems to eliminate some excess water as well. Use the tomato water for pasta cooking, or especially soup or chili water. I freeze in flat bags because im too cheap to spend a lid....See MoreCanned Tomato Juice Separtaion
Comments (17)Do you have many thousands of dollars to spend on flash processing? They are not cheap and are the most costly device to run and maintain for any canning company. For extracting juice from tomatoes, there are several choices and some are a few hundred dollars or more starting with the Spremy which is motorized with conical screens. Adding a little acid to the juice can allow it to be home canned in quarts, provided its processed long enough. 200 plants yielded me about 60 quarts of sauce, but I did give many tomatoes away too. Depending on the type of plants and how much they produce, you can expect a big variable when it comes to the end result of filled jars. In some areas of the country, there are community kitchens that allow people to home can their produce. In those cases, the canning is done in metal cans sometimes, as opposed to glass jars....See Moregrape juice and steam juicers...taking the plunge
Comments (10)I had to look for model numbers to see. The model you pictured is #619. Besides some very slight differences in capacity sizes, Norpro says the #619 berry pan (the one you linked) has 498 holes, and the one I bought, the #624 has only 312 holes in the berry pan. I didn't know the difference before I bought this one, but it's the only rodeo in the area. I would assume the more holes the better, but I didn't have much choice. It is still the 18/10 gauge stainless steel. I think it will be just fine. I would not have bought aluminum. Can't wait to use it. Grapes are on the counter now. I've been saving them in the freezer since I did the last batch a couple of weeks ago. We have 5 different varieties of muscadines, which are about the only type that grows well in our area. They do have seeds and tough skins. So tough that even though the grapes are sweet and tasty, they are too tough and seedy for me. My husband likes them, though. These will be the last of the season here...the birds are busy poking their beaks into them now. Maybe related to our drought...using it as a sourse of water. Oh yeah...I don't have to stem these grapes anyway. The varieties we have don't all ripen at the same time, so they are selectively picked. They come into the house stemless! Of course, with the steamer, I wouldn't have to stem them anyway. Do you think I ought to go ahead and slip the skins on these by squeezing them? Or just leave them whole? I don't see how all the good juice could come out without crushing them a little at least? I'll let you all know how it turns out! Jill...See Moresteam juicing tomatoes and vegetables
Comments (3)Would depend on the type of equipment I suppose. But as far as I know steam jicers only work on soft skinned fruits and vegetables that have a good water content. So things like tomatoes would work and maybe cukes if peeled but you aren't going to get much juice from hard vegetables like carrots, peppers, and such with steam. They require mechanical mashing.
