Roma Glory!

Another round with the tomatoes!

 35#s of Romas

Dropped half of them into boiling water, then ice water.

Removed the skins . . .

 Put them on the dehydrator overnight.

 . . . and then into the Vitamix!

 Pulverized into powder!

What do ya do with Tomato Powder?

substitute for tomato paste!
make ketchup (without additives)!

Add to homemade salad dressings and dips!

Add to soups/stews for x-tra tomato flavor!

 . . . and many more ideas!

This is what happened to the other half of the box of tomatoes!

Sliced and dehydrated!  Yum!   Rehydrate and use as you would tomatoes!

What wouldn't fit in the jar .... well, tomato candy!  Yum!
