Can you use regular store-bought canned (tin) crushed tomatoes to make the salsa? Our fresh tomatoes are a little pricey right now. I can't wait for our farmer's market to open up and get lots of beautiful fresh veggies.

@Topaz5866 You should check out the "canning" group at Facebook.

Love this! Thank you so much for this series. I am new to canning and am so excited to learn. I saw that you mentioned fresh herbs in your video, there is an even easier way to grow your own fresh veggies and herbs. Its called The Bucket Garden! I have one in my back yard and love it!

Didn't you exceed the recommended amount of non-tomato veggies? I've read only 1cup other veggies per 7 # of tomatoes, or 3c. per 22#s tomatoes.

David, this video is great but it'd be better if you spoke a little louder while you're on camera, there was a couple spots where it was hard to hear you. Thank you for the wealth of information

But how do you CAN the stuff? Or is this video about something else?

@Topaz5866 Actually i never said canning wasn't fresh...i can (jar) my tomatos too! but i don't add unnessary things to it! all i'm saying is it will take away from the "fresh" ...i'm comment makes alot of sense if you think about it! I can tomato sause plain...this way in the future i can add whatever different things want...and i'm not stuck without plain sauce! Fresh also means natural.

@Lemon020202

Your comment is unnecessary. OBVIOUSLY, canning fresh is best!

[Lemon020202]

@Topaz5866 the whole point is to make it fresh! and not food from a can! (sometimes you don't know how old those cans are!) just saying! fresh is always best...store cans can contain alot of chemicals!

[Lemon020202]

...this asshole! OMG...you should always make the tomato sauce plain! because this way if you want to add another ingredient in the future you can, or meat etc...
