TOMATOES BAKED. Pour boiling water over them and remove the skin ; cut them in small pieces ; season with salt and pepper ; put them in a pan with bread crumbs and pieces of butter ; cover closely, and bake three-quarters of an hour. When done, mash, and serve hot.

TOMATOES EAW. Do not loosen the skins with scalding water, as it destroys the crispness and flavor, but pare with a sharp knife ; slice and lay in a glass dish ; make a seasoning of vinegar, salt and pepper, stirring a piece of ice around in it. Pour it over the tomatoes ; keep them ice cold until wanted.
