Fresh Tomato Sauce from the Garden! #farming #preservation #sustainbility

What happens here

Begin by collecting tomatoes, which may be partially green when picked. Arrange these tomatoes on a clean countertop to allow them to fully ripen until they achieve a super red color. Identify different types of tomatoes, such as large slicing tomatoes and smaller Roma tomatoes, noting that Roma tomatoes are better suited for making sauce due to their less watery consistency compared to slicing tomatoes.

Goal: Ensure tomatoes are fully ripe and sorted by type

What they say

Hide

Some of them are kind of green as I pick them and I lay them on the counter until they all get super super red. Right now, these are good slicing tomatoes. And these are Roma tomatoes. They're a little bit better for making sauce like this. This tomato is a more watery tomato than a Roma tomato. So, the next thing I do after they set on the counter, I'll take my tomatoes from here
