Steps:
- Bring boiling-water canner, half full with water, to simmer. Wash jars and screw bands in hot soapy water; rinse with warm water. Pour boiling water over flat lids in saucepan off the heat. Let stand in hot water until ready to use. Drain jars well before filling.
- Remove skins and seeds from tomatoes. (See tip.) Finely chop tomatoes. Measure exactly 7 cups prepared tomatoes (with their juices) into 6- or 8-qt. saucepot; bring to boil. Cover; simmer on medium-low heat 2 to 3 min. or until tomatoes are softened. Blend with immersion blender until smooth. (Or, use your regular blender or food processor to process the tomatoes, in batches if necessary, until smooth.) Add lemon juice, garlic and crushed pepper to tomatoes; mix well.
- Combine 1/4 cup sugar and pectin. Add to tomato mixture in saucepot; mix well. Add oil to reduce foaming. Bring to full rolling boil (a boil that doesn't stop bubbling when stirred) on high heat, stirring constantly. Stir in honey, basil and remaining 3-3/4 cups sugar. Return to full rolling boil; cook exactly 1 min., stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Skim off and discard any foam with metal spoon.
- Ladle immediately into prepared jars, filling to within 1/4 inch of tops. Wipe jar rims and threads. Cover with two-piece lids. Screw bands tightly. Place jars on elevated rack in canner. Lower rack into canner. (Water must cover jars by 1 to 2 inches. Add boiling water, if necessary.) Cover; bring water to gentle boil. Process 10 min. Remove jars and place upright on towel to cool completely. After jars cool, check seals by pressing middles of lids with finger. (If lids spring back, lids are not sealed and refrigeration is necessary.)
