½ peck ripe tomatoes.
½ gallon vinegar.
1 teacup salt.
1 teacup mustard, ground fine.
4 pods red pepper.
3 tablespoonfuls black pepper.
A handful celery-seed.
1 cup horseradish.
All of the ingredients must be cut fine, and mixed cold. Put in

_Tomato Catsup._
1 gallon pulp of tomatoes
1 tablespoonful ginger.
2 tablespoonfuls cloves.
1 tablespoonful black pepper.
2 tablespoonfuls grated horseradish.

2/3 gallon vinegar.

_Tomato Catsup._
Put into a preserving kettle about one pint water, fill up the kettle
with ripe red tomatoes, previously washed and picked, with the skins
on, cover closely, and set on a hot fire; frequently stirring that
they may not stick to the bottom. Boil about one hour. Turn into a
wooden tray; when cool enough, rub through a coarse sieve, through
which neither skin nor seed can pass. Measure five quarts of this
pulp, and boil until very thick, then add two tablespoonfuls
horseradish, two tablespoonfuls white mustard-seed, two tablespoonfuls
celery-seed, two tablespoonfuls black pepper beaten fine, two or three
races of ginger beaten fine, three or four onions chopped fine, a
little garlic, one nutmeg, salt and sugar to the taste.
Stir all in, and let it come to a boil. Pour in one quart strong cider
vinegar. Let it boil up once more, and take off the fire. Bottle,
cork, and seal.--_Mrs. S. T._

_Cucumber Catsup._
Grate three cucumbers; one onion, one pint of vinegar, one
tablespoonful black pepper, one tablespoonful salt, one teaspoonful
pounded celery-seed.
Put the catsup in bottles, with large mouths; as the cucumber settles,
and is hard to get out.--_Mrs. H. T._
_Cucumber Catsup._
Chop three dozen large cucumbers and eight white onions, fine as

bottle.--_Mrs. P. W._
