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.

Thanks for the canning recipe!

You can can the green tomatoes.

What do you do with canned green tomatoes?

PERFECT Pullman loaf!

Before I read that, I thought it was a block of your home made cheese. How is the cheese making going, btw?

Good luck and be safe on your hunt!

No, it’s a 4 x 4 piece of lumber.

I actually almost had a deer today.

Well, I failed. It’s not a perfect loaf anymore. Cut it open to get a slice, and it was completely doughy on the inside. Threw it out. I then realized what I did wrong.

I multiplied the recipe by 1.5, but I didn’t multiply the baking time.

Either that or my oven is off, which is likely also.

I am so mad.

Ok, I’m calm now.

I use a meat thermometer to test bread-- 195 to 205F internal temp for bread to be done.
