I decided to try again with some canning. The tomato sauce didn't seal properly but it didn't leak all over the water bath either. It wasn't until I took it out to let it sit that it started to ooze out. Andy noticed the ring was slightly bent and after removing it we noticed the seal had the same bend. So that was a bust.
The second attempt was to use the Oscar carcass to brew up some ever useful pints of chicken stock. It yielded five pints. I can't wait to use it in a recipe!
I also dried tomatoes to use in ketchup and I dried the skins (of the five pounds of tomatoes used for the tomato sauce) to make a powder. I can add the powder to water to make fresh paste anytime I need some!
