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.

=====================================================================
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.
