Tomatoes

Tomatoes must be cooked several hours, otherwise they taste sour and watery.

Slice them, salt and pepper them, add a few bread crumbs, broil them on the gridiron, serve very hot for breakfast.

Stuffed with mince meat, or sliced, with French dressing or mayonnaise sauce, they are delicious.

Scald, peel, and slice them. Put in the refrigerator, with French dressing. Put a slice of onion in the dish with them, and remove it before serving.
