Preserving Tomatoes Without Cooking
Dear Aunt Daisy, . I have used this method of preserving tomatoes for twenty-six years. The recipe is one we discovered during the last war.
Wipe the tomatoes clean and dry, and place in a layer in a crock. I use twogallon crocks. Sprinkle with brown sugar and a few cloves. Continue so until the crock is almost filled. Boil equal quantities of vinegar and water. Let it get really cold, then pour over the tomatoes. Take a piece of flannel, put over the top of the jar, allowing it to dip'well into the liquid. This collects any mildew that forms. Cover over with strong brown paper and tie up with string. Tomatoes are lovely done this way, and can be used whenever needed provide the flannel is kept dipped in the liquid to collect any mildew. Have the flannel big enough to come over the top sides as well. -*" Help Each Other" (Papanui). |
Many thanks indeed. A most helpful recipe.
