Summer full of tomatoes
this video has me thinking of doing this is in the backyard when we get 90 degree weather again! I did dehydrate some tomatoes in the dehydrator.
I was picking a roaster pan full every day through August and September. Had 5 different kids- Brandywine’s, Colossal, Abe Lincoln, Dr. Wyche Yellow (was my favorite), and a few others.
These tomatoes have been coming in handy and they lasted till November. I made a lot of tomato soup to freeze and I was adding up the savings when I think of a can of soup is at least $1.19.
It’s nice to be able to pull out a frozen portion of tomato soup; beef and barley too which takes a lot of tomatoes for the broth. I froze tomatoes plain to make fresh beef and barley soup. Isn’t Beef and Barley the best soup there is?
