Tomato processing is a much awaited event for us, from starting the seeds inside the cabin in early spring, to planting starts in the high tunnel, and finally harvesting the fruit to ripen back inside the cabin during the fall months. With snow falling and the wood stove cooking we make our annual tomato sauce and were lucky enough to have an excellent tomato yield to be able to make homemade salsa for this winter too.

When people ask me why I can my own food I just take them to my canning room or show them a picture and try to explain how satisfying it is to see all that food and know that, by the grace of God, I made that happen!! I don't have enough space to grow all the food I preserve, but when I am able to can something I grew it is an even more amazing feeling!!! I will never forget the 1st time we had a dinner where everything on the plate, but the meat which we do buy grass-fed meat in bulk when possible, was from my garden it was the most amazing feeling!!!!

@jo-annjewett198 2 года назад

I saw one RU-vidr use an immersion blender and completely incorporated all the skins and seeds so nothing was visible and made up whatever she decided: sauce, ketchup, salsa etc. Also dehydrated tomato skins make a fabulous tomato powder to add to soups etc and you can make tomato “paste” from it.

@colliecoform4854 2 года назад

I have seen that also. I get the tomato powder but I wouldn't grind up the skins and seeds and leave them in the sauce. It changes the flavor and many suffer with heartburn and a few other things. I just don't like them left in. It is worth the extra steps to process. They did use the mill for the tomatos so I think it might have been all the peppers and other ingredients in the salsa.

Fiber & nutrients, but often the ancient ways are better for a reason.

It will save you a LOT of cook down time if you would drain the tomatoes after they thaw out. I do that too. Too much going in the summer sometimes so I wash cut and core the tomatoes and chuck them in the freezer till later. Draining them while they are still in chunks really helps. You can save and freeze the water you drain for vegetable soup stock or whatever...

Pro tip for doing the onions: toss them into a pot of cold water as you chop the ends off. Leave them in there until you are ready to peal and slice them. It will get rid of the liquid that comes out of the cut ends and they won't be so hard on your eyes.

Love your vids. Brings back so many wonderful memories from my youth. I remember we had the most incredible dog, his name was Skookum. 125 pound Makenzie river Husky black Lab mix. Best dog that ever lived. Sorry but Bo and Bandit would agree. He would have been Bo and Bandit's best friend for sure. He was the uber alfa dog, bred with wolves, took down moose in deep snow, bla, bla. Saved my life from a charging (not a false) cow moose protecting her calf. N.S. She would have stomped me into mush if not for him. How many people can say that? What I remember most as a young teen was checking my trapline after school in the dark with Skook. He always had to come along at his insistence, but complained the whole way about the cold. Other than his whimpering there was the hush. The silence of the deep woods. 3 feet of snow on the spruces as I trudged along on my 5 foot long bentwood snowshoes. 25 degrees below zero. Fond, fond memories. Sparkley. Crunchy. Even a little spooky. Rabbit creek valley, in the shadow of Flattop mt. n.e. of Anchorage Alaska, 1970-1975. I was 12-17 years old. Used victor leg holds and Thompson deadfall snares. In adulthood I also used conabear 330s. You share so I share. I hope that I am not boring you.

Something that might help you when cutting and peeling onions. Cut a lemon in half and rub it all over the side of the cutting board you're using. The lemon smell will draw the onion smell down.

Tasting off the spoon and putting it back into the pot, that’s double dipping extreme style 🤮

You guys are the perfect role models and examples for the dreams I’ve always wanted for my life! I want nothing more than to be a homesteader and be self-sufficient in a world where everything is readily available to us. I’ve been working my butt off to get to this point but it seems like I will never get there, some days. I love watching your videos for inspiration. Thank you for showing people another side to life!! 😌💜
