    unknown

    List of Ingredients




    1 1/4 pounds very green tomatoes (not pink)
    3/4 cup seedless raisins, plumped
    1 1/2 teaspoons grated lemon rind
    2 tablespoons lemon juice
    1 tablespoon cider vinegar
    1 1/2 cups sugar
    1/8 teaspoon ginger
    1 teaspoon cinnamon
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    3 tablespoons flour
    2 tablespoons fine dry breadcrumbs
    2 tablespoons butter

    Recipe



    Cut tomatoes in half and then slice them almost paper thin. You can keep raisins soaking in a little rum in a jar, so they are always plump. Or pour boiling water over them in a sieve to plump up if you prefer to not use rum. Drain well. Put tomatoes, raisins and rind in a large bowl. Sprinkle with lemon juice and vinegar. Mix sugar, ginger, cinnamon, salt and flour in a small bowl.

    Line a large pie pan with dough. Sprinkle crumbs over bottom. Sprinkle about 1/3 C. of the sugar mixture over the crumbs. Stir the rest of the sugar mixture into the tomatoes and heap into pan. Dot with small pieces of the butter and top with crust. Sprinkle the top with a little sugar and nutmeg if desired. You can also put 1/2 tsp. of nutmeg in flour when making the crust. Cook for 15 minutes at 425ºF, and then at 325ºF for 15 minutes longer.
