Tomatoes were once considered an acid food that could be safely canned in a boiling water canner. However, when some newer, less acidic varieties of tomatoes are canned, certain precautions must be taken to ensure the pH is low enough to prevent botulism. Adding this product will do just that.
This blend can be added directly to jars before filling and will produce a smoother less tart taste because while containing citric acid, it also contains Trehalose - a natural sugar, as well as lactic acid.
