Seven liters of tomato juice was made. Only addition was one liter of water added to facilitate cooking. Process is to wash, quarter the tomatoes,add a liter of water, cook until soft and make into a slurry. Strain through a 2 mm mesh screen, put the residue from this through a Champion juicer to extract all nutrients. Pressure can at 15 PSI for 15 minutes for long term preservation at room temperature. Pictures depict the process.

looks great. do you harvest enough to use through winter?

 

[Durgan]

Usually harvest around 100 plus liters. This year probably not due to a cold Spring.

I am in zone 6. have more growing time than you. Between freezing, canning and dehydrating I think this is the 1st year I will make it through the entire winter without buying veggies (except onion)
