Ok I know that if you are doing water bath canning that the acidity of the tomatoes is really critical, and thus it is important to use a canning recipe for the tomato sauce.
My Question is: Do I need to worry about using a canning recipe if I am going to presser can them? My tomato sauce recipe has a lot of onions and other stuff and I really like it but I think that it has enough other stuff in it trough off the acidity. I was also toying with the idea of trowing some meat balls in there. I was going to use the time from a canning recipe that had meet in it.
I think I know what I am doing but I greatly appreciate wisdom from all of you guys.
