Yes that will work...was a time in my life we would go to a farm yearly, pick Roma tomatoes...about 5 bushels...go home and make bottles and bottles of sauce for year...I had a hand crank tomato strainer....DH attached his electric drill to it and I could strain the pulp from seeds/skin in no time........now....go to store and buy......our few garden tomatoes....I put in boiled water for few minutes....skins fall off...cut in half, squeeze out seeds, bag and freeze......phew! All those yrs of all that work!
