Start with fresh, unblemished tomatoes.

While I don't recommend buying an entire 50-pound crate of Early Girl tomatoes like I did, I do suggest selecting firm tomatoes at their peak of freshness and flavor, and avoiding any that have cracks, spots, and growths. Wash and drain the tomatoes.

Me too! Talk about nostalgia. One of my grandmothers had a HUGE garden and was a canning fiend. As a wee fuzzle, I loved fetching stuff for her from the rows upon rows of pretty labeled glass jars on the many cellar shelves. Talk about farm to table!
