Directions
Always select perfect fruit ; cook in porcelain, never in metal. Some, in making catsup, instead of boiling, sprinkle the tomatoes with salt and let them stand over night, then strain and add spices, etc., and a little sugar. Bottle in glass or stone, and never use tin cans for catsups ; keep in a cool, dry, dark place. If, on opening, you find a leathery mould on top, carefully remove every particle of it, and the catsup will not be injured. To prevent this moulding of catsup some do not fill the bottles quite full, filling up with hot vinegar. If there are white specks of mould all through the catsup it is spoilt. If, on' opening and using a part, you fear that the rest may sour, scald, and, if too thick, add vinegar. Sauces should always be made in a pan set in hot water, with great care, having your sauce pan clean if you want a delicate flavor, especially if the sauce" is drawn butter.
