Pour boiling water on the tomatoes, allow to stand for 1 minute, after
which the skins may be easily removed. Break the tomatoes (do not cut) and
put into a closely-covered saucepan. Put on one side of the range, or an
asbestos mat over a very low gas ring, and allow to cook slowly to pulp.
Serve.

This simple recipe makes the most delicious sauce for those who appreciate
the undiluted flavour of the tomato. But a good sauce may be made by
allowing 1 teacup water or carrot stock to each teacup of pulp, boiling up
and thickening with wholemeal flour. A little butter may be added just
before serving.
