~Farmer Boy Tomato Jam~
Adapted from Farmer Boy by Laura Ingalls & Little House Cookbook
SERVES: 2 PINTS
Ingredients:
- 2 pounds ripe tomatoes
- 1½ cups light brown sugar
- 1 lemon, zested and juiced
- ¼ teaspoon ground ginger

- Add the tomatoes to a blender or food processor. Pulse several times to crush the tomatoes.
- Transfer the tomato puree to a medium skillet set over medium heat. Stir in the brown sugar, lemon zest and juice, and ground ginger. Cook, stirring frequently, until the mixture is thick and jammy – this will take about an hour.
