Vegetables Browned Tomatoes

browned tomatoes.
(from Godey's Ladies Magazine, edited by L.A. Godey, Sarah J. Hale, 1865)

Ingredients:

large tomatoes​

butter or lard​

salt​

pepper​

flour​

Instructions:

Take large round tomatoes and halve them; place them, the skin side down, in a frying pan in which a very small quantity of butter or lard has been previously melted; sprinkle them with salt and pepper and dredge them well with flour, and let them brown thoroughly; then stir them and let them brown again, and so on until they are quite done. They lose their acidity, and the flavor is superior to stewed tomatoes.​

Since now have my tomato plants, planted, thought look for some old tomato recipes. It will be a while before I have any tomatoes but always buy them at the grocery or framer's market.
