TOMATO WINE
Jack Malone gave me a copy
of his recipes for his famous Tomato
Wine. Keep in mind, this is not for children….
12 lb.
Ripe sliced tomatoes.
12 lb.
Sugar
2 oz.
Cake of yeast
4
unpeeled oranges sliced thin
4
unpeeled lemons sliced thin
4 boxes
dark seedless raisins
2 gal.
Luke warm water
When all is prepared, mix
all except the yeast in a 10 gal. Crock.
Set in a dark corner of the basement.
After thoroughly mixed, crumble yeast over the top. Stir till dissolved.
Cover with cheese-
cloth. Lift the cheese cloth off every day and stir. Within 4 or 5 days, the brew will stop
fizzing when it is stirred. It is ready
for bottling. Strain the brew
through muslin into gallon jugs and
wait for the solid matter to settle.
Siphon off the clear wine into other bottles, jugs or jars. Repeat the process if you wish the wine to
be more clear.
Makes 5 gal. (more or less)
