  • Title: Whole or Halved Tomatoes (packed in tomato juice)
    Categories: Canning
    Yield: 1 recipe

    Quantity: An average of 21 pounds is needed per canner load of 7 quarts;
    an average of 13 pounds is needed per canner load of 9 pints. A bushel
    weighs 53 pounds and yields 15 to 21 quarts-an average of 3 pounds per
    quart.

    Procedure: Wash tomatoes. Dip in boiling water for 30 to 60 seconds or
    until skins split, then dip in cold water. Slip off skins and remove
    cores. Leave whole or halve. Add bottled lemon juice or citric acid to
    the jars (See acidification instructions). Add 1 teaspoon of salt per
    quart to the jars, if desired.

    Raw pack — Heat tomato juice in a saucepan. Fill jars with raw
    tomatoes, leaving 1/2-inch headspace. Cover tomatoes in the jars with
    hot tomato juice, leaving 1/2-inch headspace.

    Hot pack — Put tomatoes in a large saucepan and add enough tomato juice
    to completely cover them. Boil tomatoes and juice gently for 5 minutes.
    Fill jars with hot tomatoes, leaving 1/2-inch headspace. Add hot tomato
    juice to the jars to cover the tomatoes, leaving 1/2-inch headspace.
    Adjust lids and process according to the recommendations in Table 1,
    Table 2 or Table 3 depending on the method used.

    Table 1. Recommended process time for Whole or Halved Tomatoes (packed
    in tomato juice) in a boiling-water canner.

    Style of Pack: Hot. Jar Size: Pints or Quarts

    3,001 – 6,000 ft: 95 min.
    Above 6,000 ft: 100 min.

    =====================================================================
    NOTE: This section of the guide appears to contain some sort of error
    in the information given within Table 2 above. In the USDA book, there
    are only TWO sizes of jars specified in the table, but there are THREE
    separate lines of figures in the table, and it is not completely clear
    which jar size the second and third entries refer to. I have given the
    second entry’s numbers as those to be used for Quart jars, and below I
    have reprinted the third entry on the table, for an unknown jar size.

    Style of Pack: Hot. Jar Size: ??.
    Process Time: 15 min.
    Canner Gauge Pressure (PSI) at Altitudes 0 – 1,000 ft: 15 lb.

    2 c plus 2 tbsp cake flour
    2 tsp baking powder
    1/4 tsp EACH baking soda and salt
    1/2 stick cold margarine (not spread) — cut in small cubes
    3/4 c buttermilk

    In a medium bowl, mix flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Cut in

    larger than small peas. Stir in buttermilk with a fork until mixture clumps
    together. Press dough into a ball.

    On a lightly floured surface with a lightly floured rolling pin, roll dough
    into a 10×6-inch rectangle. With the long edge facing you, fold in both short
    ends so they meet in center. Fold dough in half (as if you were closing a
    book), forming a packet 4 layers thick. Roll dough into a 6-inch square.

    With a floured knife, cut dough into 16 squares, using a straight downward
    motion with each cut (don’t saw dough). Place biscuits 1 1/2 inches apart on
    ungreased baking sheet.

    Bake 10-12 minutes until biscuits are lightly browned. Removed to a wire rack
    to cool.
