Green tomato Mincemeat filling
From the kitchen of ?.
Sweet, spicy, juicy, a touch tart. Use 4 cups in a whole wheat pie crust for a delicious treat. This will debut at Thanksgiving 2005. Cant wait!
Ingredients
- 5 lbs finely chopped green tomatoes
- 4 cups finely chopped peeled tart apples
- 1 ¾ cup raisens
- 1 ¼ cup packed brown sugar
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/3 cup vinegar (we used apple cider)
- ¼ cup (or more) lemon juice
- 2 tbsp minced lemon peel
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp salt
- ½ tsp allspice
- ½ tsp cloves
- ½ tsp ground ginger
- 1 cup water (if needed)
Instructions
Place all ingredients into a large dutch oven. Add some water if needed. I think we ended up using only about ½ cup.
Bring to boil.
Reduce heat and simmer until thickened or desired consistancy is reached.
You can pack into hot jars and process for 25 minutes in a boiling water bath. Or you can toss in a tuperware and throw it in the freezer.
