Hey Zana!

I made your recipe yesterday, wow, they taste great! It was my first time canning anything, so if you don't mind, I have a few questions.

I packed the tomatoes first in the jar, leaving 1/2 inch at the top, then topped it off with the vinegar mixture. (still leaving 1/2" at the top) After canning, I ended up with a few inches of just vinegar mixture, no tomatoes. Should I have packed the tomatoes in tighter? That would have smashed a few of them, does that matter? I used a water bath, but I'm thinking of trying it again with my pressure cooker. Would it be the same 15 minute time under pressure?

I brought one of my jars to my book club tonight, served it on sliced seeded French bread, it was delish! Thanks for sharing your recipe. Did you create it?
