Times:

Preparation time: 15 minutes
Cooking time: 30 minutes
Shelf life: 2 years
Preparation :

Cut the tomatoes into slices and blend. You will obtain a puree that you must transfer to the saucepan where it will be left on the heat until it comes to a boil.
While it is on the heat, use a ladle to remove the foam that forms on the surface. Boil a couple more minutes and then turn off the heat.
Prick the tomatoes with a fork and then place them in glass jars previously sterilized in boiling water. Then fill the jar with the tomato puree obtained.
Finally, to cook them, just fill a saucepan with boiling water and place the closed cans of tomatoes with lids inside to create a vacuum. Store them in a cool, dry place.
It is important that the jar is well closed and vacuumed, otherwise the tomatoes will not last 1 or 2 years. This is a great way to always have homemade preservative ingredients on hand. It takes very little to make them and you will always have tomatoes available whether for some quick spaghetti or to season your dishes!
