TOMATO SAUCE

• Tomatoes, stewed, 1 quart.
• Butter, 1 tablespoonful.
• Salt.
• Minced onion, 1 tablespoonful.
• Flour, 1 tablespoonful.

Put the tomatoes into a saucepan over the fire; add the onion and salt; boil about twenty minutes; remove from range and strain through a sieve. In another pan melt the butter, and as it melts sprinkle in the flour; stir till it browns and froths a little. Mix the tomato pulp with it, and it is ready for use.
