Take green tomatoes, turn boiling water on them, and let them remain in
it a few minutes--then strip off the skin, cut the tomatoes in slices,
and put them in deep pie plates. Sprinkle sugar over each layer, and a
little ginger. Grated lemon peel, and the juice of a lemon, improve the
pie. Cover the pies with a thick crust, and bake them slowly for about
an hour.
