  • Autumn arrived out of nowhere, frosts and all. And there were still so many green tomatoes left on the vines. A few had even started to redden, only to be caught by the cold. Enough to bring you to tears — you can't eat them as is, but it's a shame to throw them out. This is probably exactly the kind of situation that the recipe for green tomato spread for winter was invented for. Of course, you'll also need to pick up some ripe red tomatoes at the store, but that's no trouble — nothing goes to waste. Wash the green tomatoes, bake them in the oven, and let them cool. Then run them through a meat grinder or food processor. Peel the onion and slice it into thin rings. Fry the onion in vegetable oil, then mix it with the ground tomatoes and the allspice. Stir it all together well. Now make the sauce from the ripe tomatoes: first cook them in an enameled pot. Drain off the juice that releases, and reduce what's left to about one-third of its original volume. Press this through a sieve to remove the seeds and skins. Mix the strained pulp back into the reduced juice and boil for twenty minutes, stirring constantly. Near the end of cooking, add the bay leaf, pepper, parsley, salt, and sugar. Spoon the green tomato mixture into jars, filling them about two-thirds full. Then top them off with the sauce. Cover with lids and sterilize for forty minutes. Seal the lids tightly and let them cool upside down.
