- 1 Tb. butter
- 1 small onion
- 6 medium-sized ripe tomatoes or 1 can of tomatoes
- 1 tsp. salt
- 2 Tb. sugar
- 1/4 tsp. pepper
- 1 Tb. flour
Brown the butter in a saucepan, slice the onion into it, and cook for a few minutes. Add the tomatoes. If fresh tomatoes are to be used, remove the skins, cut into pieces, put into the saucepan with a few tablespoonfuls of water, and cook until the tomatoes are thoroughly softened. If canned tomatoes are to be used, merely allow them to come to the boiling point. Add the salt, sugar, and pepper, and, a few minutes before removing from the fire, moisten the flour with a tablespoonful of cold water and stir into the tomato. Cook for a few minutes and serve.
BAKED APPLES
- 6 medium-sized apples
- 1 lemon
- 3/4 c. sugar
- 1/2 c. water
Wipe and core the apples. Put them into a baking dish and place a slice of lemon on the top of each. Make a sirup of the sugar and the water, pour this around the apples, and bake slowly until they can be pierced easily with a fork. Serve hot or cold, with a teaspoonful of jelly on the top of each apple.
BLACK TEA
6 tsp. black tea
6 c. boiling water
Scald out the pot with freshly boiling water, pour in the tea, add the 6 cupfuls of freshly boiling water, and allow it to stand on the leaves until the tea is strong enough to serve. Then either pour the tea off the leaves and keep it hot or serve at once.
