How to Can Tomato Sauce
"This super basic canned tomato sauce has just tomatoes and salt (and jarred lemon juice to assure a proper acidic environment for canning) - making it perfect for canning because you can add any additional flavors later, when you go to use it. Note that fleshier Roma, plum, or Early Girl tomatoes are great here since they have less juice to cook down to make the sauce...."

8 lbs. supremely ripe tomatoes (a bit overripe isn't bad here either)
•
1 tsp. sea salt
•
4 Tbsp. jarred or bottled lemon juice
