How many tomatoes does it take to make a quart jar of plain tomato sauce?
I figure 80 to 100. This is based on the fact that I brought home about 200-250 tomatoes from a friend's house and made two batches of tomato sauce and ended up with two quarts of sauce (well, plus some extra sauce that I put in a freezer bag).
This was my first venture into canning. I've been prepping for a few years. That's how nervous I was. So far so good.
Outside in the backyard the Roma tomato plants are starting to get there. The other generic tomato plant that I have is also finally starting to produce some fruit. It looks like this weekend will be another sauce-making weekend.
More on all this later.
