Bottled Tomatoes

If you don't bottle your garden tomatoes you should. They are so delish!! I use these in spaghetti sauce, chili and soups.
Wash tomatoes. Scald in boiling water for about half a minute or until the skins start to crack. Run them under cold water, peel and remove stem ends. Pack into quart jars, press down to release juice. Add 1 tsp salt and 1 tsp sugar to the jars. Put lids into boiling water just to heat the rubber then place them on your jars and screw on the tops. Process in the pressure cooker at 10lbs for 8 minutes. Read the instructions on pressure cooker if you have never used one and make sure you don't tighten the lids on your bottles after they come out of the cooker....learned that the hard way!
