| Tomato Butter
10 lb Ripe Red Tomatoes; Or 6 Qts
6 c White Sugar
2 c Vinegar--I Use Malt Vinegar
1 ts Cayenne
1 ts Cloves; Ground
1 ts Cinnamon; Ground
1 ts Allspice; Ground
1 ts Salt
1 Bottle Certo; Optional
Peel tomatoes, chopping a large pieces. Cover with vinegar and let stand 8 hours or overnight. Drain well and add all other ingredients. Cook slowly (I use a crockpot) until very thick (approximately 4 hours if using a large pot or longer in a crockpot.
If not thickening sufficiently, add Certo and continue stirring and cooking an additional 10 minutes or so. Yield: 3 Qts. Note: A little goes a long way because it is quite spicy. |
