They have a low calorie content (19.7 kcal per 100 g of fruit), so they are recommended for overweight people. The absence of special substances in them - purines - allows them to be used by patients with gout. Tomatoes are recommended for food for patients with various types of metabolic disorders. They are useful in diseases of the cardiovascular tract. Fruit pectin lowers cholesterol levels in the blood, inhibits the growth of bacteria.
For bookmarking for long-term storage, tomatoes of late plantings of the milky or green stage of maturity are taken, healthy fruits are selected and placed in boxes with trellised lids with the stalks up. At the bottom of the box between the fruits, small dry (best of all birch) shavings or peat are poured, you can also wrap each fruit in paper. The best temperature for storing tomatoes is 12°C. The shelf life of tomatoes according to this method is from 1 to 3 months.
According to the second method of storage, the fruits collected at the end of October at the stage of milky ripeness are wrapped in black thin paper, placed in a disinfected low (Bulgarian type) box with dry, clean straw and brought into a dark, ventilated storage. Here they need to be kept at a temperature of 8-10 ° C. With this method, tomatoes can be stored until January.

For the preparation of canned food, use red oval or plum-shaped fruits, as well as small round tomatoes, up to 3-4 cm in diameter.
Sort the tomatoes by size, degree of maturity and color, remove the stalks, rinse in running water, put in a colander or on a blanching net, immerse in boiling water for 1-2 minutes and cool with cold water. After that, the skin is easily separated from the pulp with a knife.

In addition, the tomatoes must be perfectly ripe - an intense red color, without a green or yellow-green spot near the stalk. Soft and overripe tomatoes, as well as tomatoes with a large number of seeds or loose flesh, are not suitable for canning. You can not use very large, cracked fruits. From them prepare tomato juice for pouring.
Peel the tomatoes selected for canning from the stalks, rinse very well with cold running water. Since tomatoes are not blanched, it is necessary to remove microorganisms adhering to them during washing. Pierce tomatoes in several places with a fork, put in jars and pour freshly prepared tomato juice, cooled to a temperature of 80-85 ° C with the addition of table salt. Sterilize filled jars and seal. Keep upside down until cool.

Summer has come, in the gardens and on the shelves seasonal vegetables appear in large quantities and at an affordable price. From about mid-July, summer residents begin to ripen tomatoes. If the harvest is successful and there are a lot of tomatoes, then you can prepare a delicious homemade tomato for the winter from them.
I make such a blank every year and will be happy to tell you my proven and simple way. I am posting the recipe with step by step photos for anyone who wants to help.
To make a homemade tomato we need:
First, you need to wash and sort out the tomatoes. We do not need black or rotten barrels in a tomato. Therefore, we cut out such places, and the good part needs to be cut. What size to make the pieces does not matter, as we do it for our convenience in the future.
So, we have three ways to turn tomatoes into a liquid.
1 way - juicer.
2 way - meat grinder.
3 way - combine.
It is more convenient for me to use a combine with a nozzle in the form of sharp knives.
This method seems to me the fastest and most convenient, but you choose. The method of grinding does not greatly affect the final result.
Having turned all the tomatoes into a tomato, pour it into a saucepan in which it will be cooked.
Salt, pepper it to taste and put on a small fire. Be careful, as soon as the tomato boils, it can “run away”. You need to cook homemade tomato over low heat for at least 30-40 minutes after boiling.
While the tomato is cooking, you need jars and lids.
The boiled tomato is carefully poured into clean jars.
We roll up full jars with clean lids and wrap them up for further cooling. As soon as our homemade tomato has cooled down, we need to put it in a cool place for storage.
Despite the fact that the recipe seems to be elementary, the tomato turns out incredibly tasty. It can be added to a soup fryer, stewed in it like a sauce, or it can be diluted with water and drunk like tomato juice. And I even eat okroshka with homemade tomato, pour it instead of kvass. 😉 In general, there is a lot of room for culinary fantasies, but the most important thing is that everything is natural. Enjoy your meal.
Tomatoes of any size and variety can be processed using a meat grinder.
This method allows you to prepare delicious tomato snacks that are not suitable for pickling.
By twisting the tomatoes in a meat grinder, you can cook ketchup, adjika or other preparations. This method allows you to preserve the natural taste and aroma of tomatoes.
Tomatoes are washed, cut into several pieces and twisted in a meat grinder. You can do this both with the skin, and after removing it. Then the tomato mass is put on the stove, boiled, and only after that vegetables, herbs and spices are added. Boil everything together for a few minutes and pour into jars. The blanks are sterilized, if it is provided for in the recipe.
Garlic, onions, sweet bell peppers or other vegetables can be added to tomatoes ground in a meat grinder.

I was so fascinated by the topic of preparations for the winter that I continue to share delicious recipes with you. Probably not a single housewife misses the opportunity to cook pickled tomatoes for the winter, because such a beautiful appetizer disappears from the table in the first place. We have friends who are especially fond of pickled tomatoes. So, knowing this weakness, I try to put this dish next to them - invariably the plate turns out to be empty. And the hostess is pleased, because it means that she did not work in vain. In addition, I want to look for new recipes and cook according to them in order to continue to surprise friends and relatives.
One of my favorite recipes, tomatoes are consistently delicious. We will pickle the tomatoes with carrot tops, which apparently gives sweetness and a surprisingly pleasant taste to the tomatoes. I give the recipe for a large batch, but if you pickle a little, then divide by 10 and get the amount of ingredients per 1 liter of water.
2. Since we have a lot of marinade, we will cook it first to save time. We put a large saucepan for the marinade on the fire, pour 10 liters of water, add sugar, salt. After the water boils, pour the vinegar and turn off the gas.
3. While the marinade is cooking, prepare the vegetables. Rinse tomatoes with warm waterso that they do not crack, we pierce in the area of \u200b\u200bthe stalk with a toothpick.
4. We wash the carrot tops and dry them a little. Cut the garlic into small circles.
5. We put carrot tops and tomatoes in hot jars at the bottom, sprinkling them with garlic and pepper.
Place the largest tomatoes on the bottom of the jars, and the smallest ones on top.
6. Pour the tomatoes with boiling marinade up to the neck of the jar.After a few minutes, the tomatoes will absorb some of the liquid, so you will need to add a little marinade to the jars and immediately roll up the boiled lids.
7. We turn the jars upside down and wrap them in a warm blanket until they cool completely.
The name itself speaks for itself - there is much more sugar in the recipe than salt. The brine of such tomatoes is so tasty that it is drunk to the last drop. I'm not talking about tomatoes anymore - they just disappear right away.
3. Pour boiling water over the tomatoes, you can directly from the kettle. We drain the hot water from the cans after 10-15 minutes. Then pour the water from the cans into the pan and prepare the marinade from it.
4. Add salt, sugar, bay leaf and black pepper to 1.5 liters of water, bring to a boil, and lastly add vinegar. Pour the tomatoes in jars with this marinade and close the lids boiled in advance.
A simple recipe, we sterilize the jars in advance so that you do not have to boil the tomatoes later. and what is the best way to choose, I wrote in one of my past articles.
We prepare the marinade for 1 liter, and it is enough for 2 liter jars:
2. Put the tomatoes in jars, try to be tighter. Stick to the rule - put more tomatoes down, smaller ones up. In the middle we place sweet pepper cut in half or strips. Pour the tomatoes in jars with boiling water from the kettle, cover with a lid and leave for 10 minutes.
3. Drain the water into a saucepan, each liter jar contains about 0.5 liters of water. This means that 1 liter of marinade is enough for two liter jars.
It is very convenient to use a special plastic lid with holes to drain hot water from a jar of vegetables.
4. Bring the water to a boil, add salt, sugar and vinegar. Marinade again pour tomatoes in jars and close with metal lids.
5. We turn the jars upside down and wrap them in a warm blanket. So until the cans are completely cooled.
In the summer I plant cherry tomatoes in flowerpots and almost always get a good harvest. They grow well both on the balcony and on the street. I like to pickle such small tomatoes for three reasons: firstly, they do not burst when heated, and secondly, it turns out to be a “one-toothed” snack, and thirdly, they look much more beautiful on the festive table.
2. Pack tomatoes tightly into each jar. We cut the bell pepper into strips and try to put them on the sides in a jar (it’s more beautiful).
3. Pour boiling water over the tomatoes, cover with lids and let stand for 10 minutes. After that, drain the water and prepare the marinade. Add salt and sugar to the water, bring to a boil and pour the marinade over the tomatoes in jars. Pour the vinegar directly into the jars.
4. We roll up the cans with metal lids and turn them upside down. We cover with a warm blanket.
5. We are waiting for a reason to enjoy delicious tomatoes.
So it turned out that the tomatoes did not have time to ripen this cold summer, they remained green. You can collect them and hold them at home on the windowsill, or you can prepare wonderful blanks for the winter. This video shows 3 great pickled green tomato recipes.
This recipe is for lovers of original and new recipes. Due to the fact that we add a lot of garlic here, the tomatoes are obtained, as it were, under white snow. And in this recipe we use cherry tomatoes.
Please note that from 1 liter of marinade two liter jars of tomatoes are obtained
2. Finely chop the garlic. The easiest way to grind garlic is with a blender.
3. Pour boiling water into jars, drain the water after 10 minutes. Put garlic and mustard seeds on top of the tomatoes in a jar.
4. Prepare the marinade separately - add salt, sugar to the water, bring to a boil. Pour the tomatoes with marinade, and pour vinegar directly into the jar from above.
5. Close the lids, turn over and cover with a warm blanket.
We do not always want to add vinegar for pickling. But acid is required for safe storage in jars. You can replace vinegar with citric acid, you can use aspirin. This recipe suggests using citric acid.
Pickled tomatoes prepared according to these recipes will decorate your table, and guests will definitely ask for more. There are many more delicious recipes and pickled tomatoes, and salty, and salads, and various sauces. After all, a tomato is a versatile vegetable that is suitable for almost all preparations.
