Sweet Tomato Pickles
12 pounds of green tomatoes, sliced. Pack in a jar in layers with salt sprinkled between, and let stand over night. In the morning put in a colander, and pour clear water through until they are fresh. Then steam until a fork penetrates easily. Have ready 1 quart of vinegar, and 3 pounds of sugar boiled together, with 2 ounces of cinnamon, 1/2 ounce allspice and 1/2 ounce of cloves. Tie these loosely in a thin cloth. Pack the hot tomatoes in a jar and pour the boiling vinegar over them, putting a plate in the jar to press them under the vinegar.
