Tomato Canning Season Is Here
By BLANCHE SPANN PEASE, Homemaking Editor
One of these days it is going to
frost or freeze and most of us will
be left with lots of green toma
toes to use. One of the ways you
can use them is in green tomato
pickles. We think you might like
to use this recipe.
GREEN TOMATO PICKLES
Select small, bright green to
matoes. Discard a slice from both
the stem and bottom ends. Cut re
maining tomato into halves, or
into 1/3-inch slices. Cover four
quarts of tomatoes with % cup
salt. Let stand overnight. In the
morning, drain for an hour. Cov
er with a solution made by bring
ing to a boil four cups water, two
cups vinegar and two cups brown
sugar. Let stand for several hours
on the back of the stove or in a
warm spot. Drain again (the
syrup drained off the tomatoes
may be used for additional batch
es of pickles). Cover the drained
tomatoes with rich pickling syrup
made by boiling for seven min
utes two cups vinegar, one cup
water, 2% cups brown sugar, two
or three one-inch sticks of cin
namon and three tablespoons mix
ed pickling spice tied in a bag.
Let tomatoes remain in syrup for
one hour. Do not boil. Keep mix
ture hot, just below boiling point.
Remove tomatoes and pack into
jars. Boil syrup down with spices
for five minutes. Remove spices
and pour syrup over tomatoes.
Seal jars.
PICCALILLI
Another way to use green to
matoes: You will need a gallon of
the green tomatoes for this recipe.
Also one head of cabbage, three
sweet red peppers, two large
onions, % cup salt, one cup
brown sugar, two tablespoons
mustard seed, one tablespoon cel
ery seed, one tablespoon horse
radish and one quart vinegar.
Chop and mix vegetables with
the salt. Let stand overnight.
Drain. Mix sugar, seasonings and
vinegar. Boil one minute. Add
vegetables. Heat to boiling. Pack
into hot jars and seal at once.
If you have an orchard, you are
probably looking for new ways to
use apples. I have already made
quite a few apple pies and frozen
them. I like to use a tablespoon
of minute tapioca for thickening
in pies, instead of flour.
For the home freezer, I use
specially-made paper pie plates
or the smaller foil pie pans. I
I bake the usual two-crust apple
pie and cool on a rack thorough
ly. I like to wrap them in heavy
freezer foil. Then when I want to
serve one, thaw it in the hot oven
and it tastes fresh-baked, but
needs only to be thawed and
heated. In fact, by accident, we
had a pie in early June that I had
baked last September and it tast
ed as fresh as if it had just been
baked. Most home freezer folks
do not recommend that long in
the freezer.
I haven’t tried the following
pie in a freezer but you’ll like it
just to bake and serve.
SOUR CREAM APPLE PIE
This recipe makes a nine-inch
pie which serves six.
Two tablespoons flour, % tea
spoon salt, % cup sugar, one egg,
one cup sour cream, Vz teaspoon
vanilla, two cups apples, finely
chopped.
Sift dry ingredients together.
Add apples, mix well. Pour into
Add egg, cream and vanilla. Beat,
pastry-lined pie tin. Bake in a
hot oven of 400 to 425 F. for 15
minutes, then in a moderate oven
of 350 F. for 30 minutes.
TOPPING
One-third cup sugar, 1/3 cup
flour, one teaspoon cinnamon, V\
cup butter. Combine all the ingre
dients and mix thoroughly. Sprin
kle over pie. Return to oven and
bake at 400 F. to 425 F. for 10
minutes.
Now that you have plenty of
tomatoes, maybe you would like
to serve them a bit differently
for a change.
OI ur UJ x wiunx
You’ll need six ripe unpeeled
tomatoes, one cup cooked lima
beans, % cup fresh bread cubes,
two tablespoons chopped onion,
two tablespoons parsley, Vz cup
American cheese (grated), two
tablespoons melted butter, three
tablespoons cream or milk, one
egg (beaten), 1/3 teaspoon salt.
Scoop out centers of tomatoes.
Combine remaining ingredients
and stuff tomatoes. Fit into shal
low pan and add 1/3 inch boiling
water. Bake in a moderate oven
of 350 F. 30 minutes.
You probably know that when
you’re adding raw tomatoes to
salads, they won’t be as watery if
you cut them vertically instead
of across. If you allow them to
lie on paper toweling for a min
ute the towel will absorb some of
the excess juice, too, and make a
less watery salad.

Dear Mrs. Pease:
The shower of rain we received
last night changed the routine of
work today, so seeing that you
need more letters I will try to add
my bit
This is not a very industrious
household but we do enjoy our
garden and flowers and the gar
den is providing us with a few
extras to can along with the daily
table use.
These are busy days for the
farm homemaker, but some of the
hard work is pretty well done, but
the cooking for the hay men is
still being done in some homes
Taking care of the garden is an
added chore, but a little each day
is done and when the end of the
season is here the jars are all
filled and it’s a big saving for the
pocketbook, for the high cost of
living still has to be considered.
Even if some foods are down in
price, the average homemaker
goes a long way in providing the
food for the winter meals.
By the time we pick our last
gladiola blossoms and the haying
is beginning to draw to a close
school is here again. Seems like
the summer has gone fast and
mother is beginning the long task
of filling the lunch boxes for the
kiddies. Pickles and preserves are
two important items, so here are
some ideas on both.
This is pickle time at our house
and we are trying to follow a spe
cial recipe, but don’t have enough
cucumbers at one picking to start
a full batch, so add a few each
day to the already mixed brine.
When a gallon or more are ready
will start to freshen them. We like
the sweet chunk pickles which are
a sort of an “all-around” pickle
that can be used in potato salads
and sandwiches as well as just
pickles and relishes.
The gardener who doesn’t have
many strawberries at one time
can try this preserve recipe.
STRAWBERRY PRESERVES
Four cups washed, cleaned and
hulled berries. Put on to cook with
four cups of sugar. Boil about
four minutes then pull back to
auup uic uuiuiig nuu twu
more cups of sugar, boil another
four minutes or so until they are
thick enough. Usually the eight
minutes are enough. Remove from
fire and continue stirring until
air is all out. Pack into sterilized
jars and seal. These are good and
the berries go farther.
This is getting long, but would
like to tell you that I’ve marked
the nicest glad bulbs and will save
only those as the room in the gar
den is allotted. They would have
been beautiful if the weather had
been more cooperative. It’s hard to
understand how mother nature
doles out just what she wants us
to have but we are still living in
hopes
