Pickles and Preserves Recipes
Yield: 6 pints
This is an old family recipe and is very good with baked beans and ham, and even better with eggs.
- 24 ripe tomatoes
- 4 large green peppers
- 3 large onions
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 2 tablespoons salt
- 1 tablespoon ground cloves
- 1 tablespoon ground nutmeg
- 1 tablespoon ground ginger
- 1 tablespoon ground allspice
- 1-1/2 quarts apple cider vinegar
Skin tomatoes. Seed peppers.
Cut tomatoes into small chunks and coarsely chop peppers and onions. (DO NOT use a food processer for this ).
Mix in sugar, salt, cloves, nutmeg, ginger, allspice, and apple cider vinegar.
Cook slowly for 2-1/2 to 3 hours, and seal with a HOT PACK method in clean jars. Keeps well for 8 months or longer in a cool place.
NOTE: If you want this sauce a bit hotter, use 2 sweet peppers and 2 hot peppers or to taste.

This sounds like the one my mother used to make. I can remember some of the ingredients. I was a little girl and didn't know anything about how it was made. I loved it on bread and butter. I used to sneak a jar from the pantry and hide it so no one else could eat it. – Reviewed by Sue McEndree
