Because canning tomatoes requires extra care, try this refrigerator variety for your Bloody Marys. Trust us: You'll want to drink it immediately anyway. Learn how to safely can tomatoes and-prevent botulism-at the National Center for Home Food Preservation (nchfp.uga.edu). Ingredients:
8 ripe heirloom tomatoes, cored and quartered (about 6 lb.) |
1 tablespoon worcestershire sauce |
1 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon celery salt |
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper |
1/2 teaspoon hot sauce |
Directions:
1. Place tomatoes in a Dutch oven, and mash with a potato masher until chunky. Cook over medium heat, stirring often, 20 to 25 minutes or until peels are wilted and most of juices have been released. 2. Press tomatoes through a fine wire-mesh strainer into a medium bowl, pressing with a wooden spoon to squeeze out juices; discard solids. Return tomato juice to Dutch oven, and stir in Worcestershire sauce and remaining ingredients. Bring to a boil over medium heat, and cook, stirring often, 5 minutes. Remove from heat, and let cool to room temperature (about 30 minutes). Pour into 2 (1-qt.) jars; chill 2 to 4 hours. Store in refrigerator up to 5 days. |
