Tomato Marmalade

Ingredients

• 2 medium-sized oranges
• 1 lemon
• 2 quarts of stewed tomatoes
• 1 package of seeded raisins
• 2 pieces of candied ginger cut into bits
• 4 cups of sugar
• 2 teaspoons of cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon of ginger
• 1 teaspoon of cloves
• 1 teaspoon of nutmeg
• 1/2 teaspoon of allspice

Instructions

Grate the yellow rind from the oranges, taking care to grate very lightly. Place in a small pan and add one-half cup of water. Let stand one day and then cook slowly until soft.

Add this rind to the juice of the oranges and lemon. Then place in a preserving kettle and add stewed tomatoes, rubbed through a fine sieve, raisins, candied ginger, and sugar. Add cinnamon, ginger, cloves, nutmeg, and allspice tied in a piece of cheese-cloth.

Cook until the mixture is very thick like jam and then remove the spice bag. Pour into sterilized glasses and cool and cover with paraffine. Store in a cool place.
