Any Home Bakers Here?

I baked two loaves of sourdough this weekend using the basic country bread recipe from Tartine bread book. This is one of them:

The Book does not have a nice recipe to follow for posting here-- it is more in the form of a blog. I do recommend the book.

Canning all the tomatoes that were on the table, 3 quarts. Now I can clean off my table and put the leaves down so I have more room in here. Progress!

I told hubby that we have enough canned tomatoes, so the rest of what ripens -- and there are a LOT of green tomatoes out there -- is for salsa. That made him smile.

You can can the green tomatoes.

Better yet, make a tomato stew.

Tomato Stew - Canned

Equal amounts of ripe, partially ripe and green tomatoes to fill a 6 qt. saucepan.
3 large bell peppers
1 medium onion
1 cup water

Scald and peel the ripe and partially ripe tomatoes. The green tomatoes may be peeled or left as is but do not need to be scalded. Section tomatoes into sauce pan. Core and remove seeds from bell peppers. Cut into pieces and add to sauce pan. Peel and slice onion into sauce pan.

Add the water to the sauce pan. Bring mixture up to a boil and cook for approximately 20 minutes while occasionally stirring.

Prepare jars and lids and rings.

When stew is ready, ladle into prepared jars adding 1 tsp. salt to each quart before sealing. After placing lid and tightly closing the ring on the jar, turn jar upside down on counter until cool. Check to see that lids have sealed (depressed inward) after jars are cool.

Makes approximately 5 quarts.

Store until ready to use. Empty jar into to sauce pan. Add 1 to 2 tbsps. butter or margarine. Sweeten to taste(I use 1 cup sugar or sucralose per quart). May add browned ground meat if desired and serve over toast.
