Another tasty relish that will work well with boiled meats and similar dishes.
Prep Time: 20 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Ingredients:
- 7/8 pound (400 g) green tomatoes
- 1/3 pound (300 g) sweet apples
- 1/3 pound (300 g) white grapes
- The juice of a lemon
- A packet of pectin sufficient for this weight of fruit
- About 2 1/4 pounds (1 k) sugar
Preparation:
Wash the fruit. Seed and chop the tomatoes. Grate the apples, and put the grapes through a food mill. Combine everything with the juice of the lemon and the pectin in a high-sided pot.Cook, stirring the mixture lest it scorch, until it comes to a boil; boil it for one minute, slowly add the sugar and continue cooking, stirring; when the jam returns to a boil cook it for 3 minutes, stirring constantly.
Remove the pot from the fire and stir for a minute, or until the foam is reabsorbed. Check the consistency of the jam (a drop on an inclined plate should run slowly) and transfer it into sterile jars. Cap them, and stand them upside down for 5 minutes. Check the seals by tapping the lids with a knife blade (they should ring), and store the jam in a cool dark place.
