Tomato Salsa






















2 kg tomatoes
2 dl olive oil
1 whole garlic, peeled into cloves
A large handful of fresh basil
1 ½ -2 Tbsp. coarse salt
Granulated Glass

Cut the tomatoes over if they are large, Distribute them in the jar, so they are completely full.
Press the tomatoes well. Prop basil and garlic along the sides, sprinkle with salt, pour olive oil over and screw the lids almost entirely on. If you use the right patent glass with rubber tubes they must be closed.Put the filled glass in the oven at 110 degrees and let them stand untill they look like boiled tomatoes(around1,5 hour) . Take out the glasses and screw on the lid tight.. Put them back in the oven and let cool. Patent Glass is just standing in the oven until they have cooled.

PLUM JAM



So I tried a new way of making plum jam and this was really easy & Tastyyyy;-)
The recipe is for one jar,since i didn't know how it was going to turn out..

1 kg of plums split in half
0,5 kg of sugar
1-2dl of captain morgan dark rum
cinnamon
Heat up the owen to 150 degrees celcius & Mix all the ingredients together in a roasting pan.
Have it in the owen for around 1-1,5 hour ,don't forget to stir it around.
Heat up the glass before you put the jam in it to ensure the durability.Let it cool down before you put it in the fridge,,,Enjoy;-)

Red Currant Jelly Recipe

1 liter of Red Currant & 6dl of Sugar

1.Pick and wash the berries and boil them in a jam pot with just enough water so it won't burn
2.Simmer until berries have released themselves from all the juice and strain it all through a jelly bag or piece of cheesecloth.
3.Heat the juice to boiling in the saucepan and heat together the sugar in the oven - to 6 cups sugar 6 dl juices. Pour the hot sugar in fruit juice and boil vigorously until the gel begins to settle,but not more than 20 minutes. If you let the jelly boil for a long time when the sugar is well appointed and darkens it loses both its beautiful appearance and taste. If you have reason to suspect that the juice is the thinnest team and not concentrated enough, so reduce it in about 10 minutes,
add sugar...Good Luck
