Description
A winter preserve made at home. Tomato jam made with this recipe turns out very refined. It is cooked slowly and should simmer until thoroughly tender. It is also good to add a shot of aromatic red wine to the first boil, in addition to lemon juice; you can add a little cinnamon or vanilla. In short, you can add something of your own to the recipe, to suit your taste. The main thing is to understand the principle. Store in a cool, dark place.
