All the recipes I have seen for juice have you not peeling the
tomatoes. On the other hand, you are supposed to peel the tomatoes when making puree. I don't get it. In both cases you end up straining out seeds and so on and squishing it to a pulp. I know that leaving the skins on would jam up my juicer device to some extent, and also the skins are sort of bitter. So why do the recipes say to leave on the skins? I never have, but I guess it would save time if it didn't mess up the juicer. |

I would run both through my machine, don't know what it is called but it has a conical feed auger similar to a meat grinder and a conical screen nose on it--the juice and pulp go thru the screen into a pot or something and the seeds and heavy junk (and skins if there were any) come out the end of the nose and into a bucket. I think this is how anybody would start to make puree, and it is how I make juice, except that I don't have skins in the mix. Maybe it all depends on what people have for tools to use. We make 120-150 quarts of juice every year and would have been in rehab with repetitive motion injuries long ago if we had to use a foley food mill. I run the juicer with an electric drill and it works like a champ. |

I would run both through my machine, I assumed you were using a juicer and a blender. I'm not in the "machine guessing game". -sw |

The National Center for Home Food Preservation has identical prep methods for tomato sauce (unseasoned) and tomato juice: cook with skins, then mill to to remove skins and seeds. When I make juice, I use this: http://www.mendingshed.com/200strainer.html The whole idea is to separate the skins and seeds from the pulp and the juice. Works a treat.

Works a treat. What kind of juicer device are you using that >you are concerned about jamming it up? You can't really make tomato juice at home from fresh tomatoes... it won't taste anything like commercial tomato juice nor will it have the same texture. The only way to make tomato juice that's like what you buy is to dilute tomato paste... tomawto juice made from tomato paste tastes most like fresh tomatoes because it's so minimally heated, the excess water is removed by a special vacuum evaporator process. all commercial tomato juice is made from tomato paste/concentrate. |

Leamington was the first place I saw a grocery store selling sugar by the 50 pound sack, for preserving I presume. |
