From Cooks Illustrated (may need an account to view this article):

  • 1 lb fresh tomatoes = 1 14.5-oz can of drained diced tomatoes + 1 T of drained juice
  • Calcium chloride added to some canned tomatoes helps tomatoes retain firm texture, so may need extra smooshing to break them down
  • 28-oz can of diced tomatoes = 2-1/2 cups of drained tomato solids
  • 28-oz can of whole tomatoes = 1-3/4 cups of drained tomato solids
