She has already done quite a lot of cooking on those tomatoes. I feel that less cooking leads to more flavor.

Have you ever froze food in the quart jars with shoulders.
They dont recommend it but was just asking.
We used the plastic freezer containers they probably still sell if I looked for them.

They look like this and we put catfish and water in them to freeze.
Also fruit.

I use the wide mouth jars so they don't really have shoulders. I also have some plastic "jars" that are made by Ball that are BPA free. They make them in pints and quarts.

I mostly use the glass jars for my home made spaghetti sauce and plastic for tomatoes and everything else.
