Everything is so simple: banks, water, tomato... Cans wash the tomatoes also, send in a cold bath :o) to drain the water from the tomatoes and place in a container. Jar, what size to choose depends on the size of the family. The two of us, so I lay in poltoracki. In a 1.5 liter jar I went from 900 to 950 grams of tomatoes. So 18 cans for 1.5 liters it took me about 17-17,5 kg of tomatoes. The syrup I boiled 5 liters of water. Accordingly, all: salt, sugar, vinegar - was multiplied by 5. This syrup was enough for me for 9 and a half-liter cans. Just!

Further, at your convenience, two methods: without sterilization and with her about sterilization :o) the first Way, without sterilization: Boil water and pour over tomatoes in jars, cover the jar and leave for 20-25 minutes. Drain the water and immediately pour the syrup. Roll up, banks turn over.

I almost always sterilized. Young thought it was faster, if not sterilized, but eventually realized that it was a hoax. Until they stand up, almost half an hour, I already desterilize, rolled up and forgotten. I have two large pans, one just up 4 banks, the second - 5. At the bottom of the cloth, pour already hot water, put banks. Tomatoes, pour the hot brine. As the water is boiling, 5 minutes pokipyatit, removed, rolled and ready. I yesterday for two hours clogged 18 cans. It is with the preparation, packing, seaming, cleaning.
