Vegerific Pasta Sauce by Ball®
Preserving Method: Pressure Canning
Makes about 2 (32 oz) quarts or 4 (16 oz.) pints
If you can't get enough vegetables in your pasta sauce, this recipe is for you! It's so thick and luscious, you can even serve it as a veggie tapanade with crackers and cheese.
YOU WILL NEED
• 4 lbs. Roma Tomatoes
• 1 large summer squash, halved lengthwise and sliced (about 12 oz)
• 1 large zucchini, halved lengthwise and sliced (about 12 ozs)
• 1 medium eggplant, diced (about 1 lb)
• ¼ cup plus 2 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
• 1 large onion, chopped
• 4 cloves garlic, finely chopped
• 2 carrots, thinly sliced
• 1 cup sliced mushrooms
• 1/4 cup bottled lemon juice
• 1 pkg. Ball® or McCormick® Roma Pasta Sauce Mix
DIRECTIONS
1. Heat jars in simmering water until ready for use. Do not boil. Wash lids in warm soapy water and set aside with bands.
2. Preheat oven to 375 F. Core and slice tomatoes in half lengthwise and arrange on large baking sheet with cut sides up. Season with salt and pepper. Toss summer squash, zucchini and eggplant together in a large mixing bowl with ¼ cup olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Arrange on foil lined baking sheet that has been sprayed with non-stick cooking spray. Place baking sheets in oven and roast for 45 minutes stirring vegetable mixture halfway through and rotating trays to ensure even roasting. Remove from oven when vegetables are softened and most of their moisture has evaporated. Set aside and allow to cool.
3. Meanwhile, heat remaining olive oil in large Dutch oven and cook onion, garlic, carrots and mushrooms over medium-high heat, until golden brown, stirring frequently. Stir in roasted squash and eggplant. Pull skins off tomatoes, roughly chop and combine with vegetables in Dutch oven. Stir in lemon juice and spices from Ball McCormick recipe card. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce to low and simmer until thickened slightly. Adjust flavor to taste with salt and pepper.
4. Ladle hot sauce into hot jar leaving 1-inch headspace. Remove air bubbles. Wipe rims and center lids on jars. Apply band and adjust to fingertip tight. Place jar in pressure canner containing 2 inches of simmering water; repeat until all jars are filled.
5. Place lid on canner and turn to locked position. Adjust heat to medium-high. Vent steam for 10 minutes. Place the counter weight or weighted gauge on vent; bring pressure to 10 pounds (psi) for a weighted-gauge canner or 11 pounds (psi) for a dial-gauge canner. Process quarts for 90 minutes and pints for 75 minutes. Turn off heat; cool canner to zero pressure. After 5 minutes, remove lid. Let jars cool 10 minutes. Remove from canner.
Pickled Bread-and-Butter Zucchini
16 cups fresh zucchini, sliced
4 cups onions, thinly sliced
1/2 cup canning or pickling salt
4 cups white vinegar (5%)
2 cups sugar
4 tbsp mustard seed
2 tbsp celery seed
2 tsp ground turmeric
Yield: About 8 to 9 pints
Procedure: Cover zucchini and onion slices with 1 inch of water and salt. Let stand 2 hours and drain thoroughly. Combine vinegar, sugar, and spices.
Bring to a boil and add zucchini and onions. Simmer 5 minutes and fill jars with mixture and pickling solution, leaving 1/2-inch headspace. Adjust lids and process according to the recommendations in table below:
*After the process is complete, turn off the heat and remove the canner lid. Wait 5 minutes before removing jars.
❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧
DRYING Zucchini
Choose young, slender zucchini. Wash. Cut into 1/4 inch slices or 1/3 inch slices for chips.
Dry at 125ยบF until brittle. Dried zucchini should be stored in a moisture -proof container in a dark, dry place. It will keep for a year. Possible
storage containers to use include jars, tin cans with tight-fitting lids and plastic containers. Containers should be filled as full as possible without crushing.
Use in soups and casseroles. Sprinkle zucchini chips with seasoned salt and serve with dips.
STORAGE
Only fresh zucchini in prime condition can produce a good quality pre-served product.
Fresh Zucchini: Best when eaten or preserved shortly after purchase or harvesting. Expected shelf life is 1 week.
Frozen Zucchini: Label and date the packages. Properly packaged and frozen, zucchini should maintain high quality for approximately 10 months.
Canned Pickled or Pineapple Zucchini: If lids are tightly vacuum sealed after processing, remove the screw bands, wash the lid and jar to remove food residue; then rinse and dry jars.

๐ด Spaghetti Sauce (no meat)
Delicious homemade spaghetti sauce, packed with vegetables and flavour! Use as a base for lasagne or pasta bake, or heat for 5-10mins (until very hot) to serve with cooked pasta. Add fresh chillies for spiciness. As this spaghetti sauce contains vegetables, it must be pressure canned.
Ingredients:
14kg (31lbs) whole, fresh tomatoes
3 cups finely diced mushrooms
2 cups finely diced zucchini
2 cups finely diced carrots
½ cup finely diced green sweet pepper (capsicum)
½ cup finely diced red sweet pepper (capsicum)
1 cup finely diced celery
1 cup finely diced onion
chillies (optional), seeds removed, finely diced
6 cloves garlic, finely minced
4 ½ teaspoons kosher or pickling salt
2 tablespoons dried oregano
2 tablespoons dried parsley
2 tablespoons dried basil
2 teaspoons ground black pepper
Prepare jars.
Prepare jars by covering in water and boiling for 10 minutes.
Prepare tomatoes.
Wash tomatoes and remove cores and blemishes. Place onto a lined oven tray. Bake under grill until skins split. Cool until warm and safe to handle. Remove skins. Dice roughly and place into a large pan. Boil 20 minutes or until very soft. Puree. De-seed by food mill or pressing through a fine sieve if you wish.
Prepare other vegetables.
Place all other vegetables in a pan with a little oil (just enough to stop it sticking to the pan). Sautรฉ until tender.
Combine cooked vegetables and tomato puree.
Pour tomato puree back into the pan with the vegetables and spices. Bring to a boil then boil steadily until reduced by 50% (cook over several wide pans to reduce cooking time).
Prepare lids.
While you are making the sauce, place the lids into a pot of previously boiling water. Do not simmer or boil, just let the lids heat through in the few minutes while you fill the jars, removing the lids from the water when you are ready to place them onto the jars so they stay hot.
Ladle hot sauce into hot jars.
Immediately spoon the hot pasta sauce into your prepared hot jars, filling to 1 inch (2.5cm) from the top. Remove bubbles, top up with extra sauce to the 1 inch headspace if required. Wipe rims and seal.
Pressure canner processing.
Your pressure canner needs 2 inches (5cm) of pre-boiled water in the bottom before adding the hot jars. Then place each filled jar of sauce into the canner. Put the lid onto the canner and turn onto high heat. Once the white steam is present (constant stream), vent for 10 minutes before adding weight and bring up to pressure (10lbs weighted, 11lbs dial gauge). Adjust pressure level according to your altitude if required. Once pressure is reached, start your timer for 20mins (pints) or 25mins (quarts). Once the time is up, turn the heat off and allow pressure to return to zero. Then remove the weight and wait another 5 minutes before removing the lid and cooling jars overnight on a towel-covered bench overnight.
Next day check for seals.
Check jars have sealed before labelling and storing in a cool, dry and dark place for up to 12 months.
