Learn from my tomato sauce misadventures. Instead of laboriously cooking down tomato sauce, just freeze the whole tomatoes. When they defrost, the flesh will completely separate from the water and also wash away most of the seeds. Then you just bring it up to heat before canning, which turns it immediately into sauce. I wish I had known that, especially for the MANY GALLONS of cherry tomatoes I got one year. SO much easier and less laborious.
Your pie filling just gave me an idea for this bag of pears from a neighbor. 🙂
