(1917) Tomato Catsup

Source of Recipe

Purity Flour Cookbook 1917 edition


List of Ingredients

1 gallon chopped strained tomatoes
4 tablespoons salt
3 tablespoons black pepper
3 tablespoons mustard ( I think they mean mustard powder)
1/2 tablespoon cloves
1/2 tablespoon allspice
1/3 teaspoon red pepper
3 garlic, chopped (could be cloves of garlic or heads of garlic, I add at least a whole head as I like garlic)
1 pint vinegar


Recipe

Boil until required thickness, with the dark spices and garlic in a piece of cheese cloth to prevent the catsup from turning dark.
Place in hot sterilized jars and seal.
