Money Savers Grandma's solution
to over-priced, out-of-season tomatoes is still a good one: use high
quality canned whole tomatoes, You will need about 10 of them. Rinse and
drain them, then slice and drain again. |
Serving Variation
For gazpacho salad, chop ingredients finely. Add 1 clove
garlic and use white-wine vinegar. Omit sugar and mustard seeds. |
