This recipe was extracted from The Hotel St. Francis cook book (1919) by Hirtzler, Victor., page 150. The excerpt below is the record exactly as published.

Tomato preserves. Scald and peel carefully some small, pear-shaped, half ripe tomatoes. Prick with a needle to prevent their bursting, and put their weight in sugar over them. Let them set overnight, then pour off the liquid into a preserving kettle, and boil until it is a thick syrup. Clarify with the white of an egg, add the tomatoes, and boil until transparent. A small piece of ginger root ; or a lemon sliced very thin

Cook this with the app: pantry check, scaling, and the assistant.
