WHOLE TOMATOES.

8 quarts of medium-sized tomatoes.

4 quarts of sliced tomatoes.

Put the pared and sliced tomatoes into a stewpan and cook as directed

for stewed tomatoes. When they have been boiling twenty minutes take

from the fire and rub through a strainer. Return to the fire.

While the sliced tomatoes are cooking, pare the whole tomatoes and put

them in sterilized jars. Pour into the jars enough of the stewed and

strained tomato to fill all the interstices. Put the uncovered jars in a

moderate oven, placing them on a pad of asbestos or in shallow pans of

hot water. Let the vegetable cook in the oven for half an hour. Take

from the oven and fill to overflowing with boiling hot, strained tomato,

then seal. If there is any of the strained tomato left, can it for

sauces.
