NAME your 'babysitter' or at least give us the link to her blog, since clearly you have no original ideas.<br /><br />Think about your life - displayed to us via blog. It's too obvious. You are a potentially valid food writer. Stop writing crap. I was disappointed to come across your blog when googling tomato sauce with no peeling, since many italians/spanish do this at home. You are a faker - not a bad thing, if you write accordingly.<br /><br />Sorry, you shouldn't post anything on YouTube either. Just, don't do it, until you're more talented, or less spoiled.<br /><br />Sincerely.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3421475838864238344.post-34358064265663770982011-10-08T19:58:46.915-06:002011-10-08T19:58:46.915-06:00I'm still trying to find canning supplies here...I'm still trying to find canning supplies here in Guatemala!

Depending on how long ago you canned this sauce, you should be able to still hot water bath the jars as long as you use the cold pack times.Mark and Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02568782420855476791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3421475838864238344.post-35803523808402422142011-10-07T09:36:28.883-06:002011-10-07T09:36:28.883-06:00I don't see a point in which you hot water bat...I don't see a point in which you hot water bathed your sauce. This used to be considered the safe way to can tomatoes, but in the last few years the guidelines from the USDA changed. Since more tomatoes varieties have been coming out with low acid types, the acid content is often not high enough to can them safely without either adding a splash of vinegar or lemon juice or hot water bathing the jars. Quarts need to be processed for 40 minutes, pints for 35, depending on your altitude. I would be very wary of using the method you were taught because young children are more susceptible to botulism. see http://www.foodsaving.com/G3SelectingPreparing-CanningTomatoes-TomatoProducts.pdfMark and Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02568782420855476791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3421475838864238344.post-15095079521394070852011-10-07T06:15:54.313-06:002011-10-07T06:15:54.313-06:00I'll be looking for the jars when I get home! ...I'll be looking for the jars when I get home!
