Canned Tomatoes Recipe 1

Instructions

1. Peel small ripe tomatoes and cut out the hard part round the stem end.
2. Put, whole, into the sterilized jar as many as the jar will hold without crushing.
3. In the meantime cook enough pared-and-sliced tomatoes as are needed to make about a pint; pour this, while hot, around the tomatoes in the jar and shake the jar to fill all the open spaces.
4. Put on the cover and let cook set on a folded cloth on a rack in a saucepan or steam cooker half and hour.
5. Have ready hot tomato; fill the jar to overflow and cover as usual.
