RecipesCanning tomatoes
The time for canning tomatoes comes at the turn of July and August, when our gardens are overflowing with the rich harvest of this fruit or vegetable (?). In this regard, there is quite an interesting contradiction, as some courts in America have ruled that tomatoes are a vegetable, while others have ruled them to be a fruit, and for example, the European Union categorized tomatoes as fruit in 2011, which is in agreement with botanists since tomatoes grow on a perennial bush. Regardless, canning tomatoes provides a way to deal with the excess harvest. Canning is very simple, especially canning tomatoes, so you should "give it a try" as well. You can find a recipe for canning tomatoes without brine a little further down.
