2 pounds peeled Pachino tomatoes,(smaller than San Marzano and sweeter)
1 pound granulated sugar
1/2 cup lemon juice
1/4 cup fresh basil, chopped [or less � I found this to be a little too much]
Recipe
To peel the tomatoes, cut a cross in the bottom (opposite from stem end) and put in a pot of boiling water until the skin of the tomatoes starts to pull away (just a few seconds). Remove tomatoes from the water and peel.
Place the tomatoes in a saucepan with the sugar. Mix well. Heat over medium to medium high heat to 222 degrees F. Remove from heat and stir in the lemon juice and basil.
Cool and place in covered jar. Store refrigerated.
