  • Bring tomato mix to a boil. Add sugar mix: stir to dissolve while returning to a boil then remove from heat.
  • Fill pint or half-pint canning jars leaving ¼” head space. Adjust lids. Process in water-bath canner for 10 minutes. Let jar/s cool overnight and check seal.
  • This recipe can be doubled, tripled, or even quadrupled.
