in Italian, Bruschetta is pronounced brusketta not bruscetta

San Marzano are the BEST tasting tomatoes for sauce and bruschetta. They're the only ones I use (organic only). So far this year, I have canned 6 pints of bruschetta, 6 pints of caponata and 4 quarts of tomato sauce with sauteed onions. I've also pressure canned 3 quarts of tomato sauce with sauteed long sweet peppers and homemade loose, sweet Italian sausage, and 14 pints of tomato sauce. I roast ALL of the tomatoes before I make these recipes because that gives you the best tasting finished sauces. It's a time consuming process but oh soooo worth it. Plus it gives me time to watch videos and find people like you who give me wonderful new ideas and tips. I've also pressure canned 8 quarts of that sausage by itself without the sauce plus a LOT of different citrus juices for winter cooking. I am BIG on lemon juice in my recipes so I have decided to just can it all up so it's ready to go this year rather than having to juice the lemons as I go. I make a wonderful chicken piccata that my daughter asks for at least once a week.
