My neighbours wouldn't like me just growing tomatoes willy nilly on my
lawn. I have no interest in growing things and would even replace my lawn
with indoor outdoor carpet if it wouldn't cause me greif. My thumb is black
not green.

But to get clear tomato water ...pulp a tomato and let it sit in a coffrr
filter...collect what drips thru the paper...too much work as I see it.

So I use fresh crushed tomatoes when I can get a good price on good
tomatoes. If I freeze whole tomatoes I still have the skin and seeds to
worry about. So it's fresh crushed or canned tomatoes for me. The benifit
of canned is that you know what it'll taste like before you start...wIth
fresh crushed, no 2 tomatoes taste the same.
