I thought refrigeration basically replaced canning as a home food preservation method

Try keeping a bunch vine ripened tomatoes that were picked in August in the refrigerator until December!

That’s why I used the words ‘basically replaced’...... But you can freeze tomatoes for future cooking needs and that’s refrigeration...
