Write your reply.

assistant: Plastic freezer bags are airtight and cheap. The difficult part
with the home freezer is holding the temperature just above zero
so the water in the tomatoes does not freeze and break the cell
walls.
Seeing that they are not being deep frozen, I would also
recommend that they be blanched in boiling water before storing,
otherwise the enzymes in them that make them go bad would still
be working.
Getting back on topic.....
    TOMATO AND FENNEL SOUP (adapted from Mrs Beeton)
    2 tbsp olive oil
    1 small onion, finely chopped
    2 Florence fennel bulbs
    4 tomatoes, peeled and chopped
    1.5 litres chicken stock
    salt and pepper to taste
 (I don't know how big Florence fennel bulbs are. The fennel
 sold here is in ENORMOUS bulbs, so I used an amount roughly
 the same in size as the tomatoes.)
Heat the oil in a heavy bottomed pan, and fry the onion in it for
about 5 minutes.
Roughly chop the fennel, add to the pan and fry for about 10
minutes, turning frequently, until soft.
Add the tomatoes and chicken stock, salt and pepper. Bring to the
boil, then lower the heat and simmer for about 15-20 minutes
until the fennel is tender.
Garnish with the feathery fronds of the fennel and serve
immediately.

I don't want anyone to think that I'm knocking their taste. as the romans (or
someone) had it, "de gustibus non disputandum est". (I learnt that as an
example of a gerundive - which I can't say I really understood). "About
taste, it is not meet to be disputed" - literally. That said, I'm not a great
fan of Branstons, which i find too rooty and too crude in flavour. I also
find it's too acid. I'm no great pickle freak except that sweet & sour
gherkin recipe I put up some time ago. I do, on the other hand adore
utneys.
I would try it as writ, and see how you get on with it. If you like it, then
by all means quadruple it next time around. As I said, it ain't my favorite,
but with Helen and Eleanor both keen to find a recipe, I just up and done my
duty!
However, my real reason for writing is to give you a BIG thank you. When we
got back from our Hols, what was waiting for us but a lovely package. Now
I'll be able to make all those recipes with allspice in again. the
snickerdoodle recipe tempted Jacquie (so maybe she'll be making some soon. I
was also tickled by the coffee beans. Tell me, did they have a spicy scent
when you put them in, or is it the propinquity (now there's a REAL snooty
word) of the allspice that gives them that lovely smell?
Thanks a whole bundle, Ruth.

It's real fiddly. You blanch them 1 minute and refresh. (Professional cooks
terminology for drop them into boiling water, when the water comes back to
the boil, start timing, after 1 minute, drain in a sieve, plop into cold
water, leave a moment and then drain again.) Then you sit down in front of
the TV, and with a vegetable knife (small knife with sharp point) you tease
the skin away. It takes about 20 minutes to do 4 ounces. In this part of the
world, (and this time of the year) we get them really fresh, and then they're
truly yummy, even with their skins, which are hardly bitter at all. We're
really beginning to learn some of the things we can do with them, and
enjoying it very much.
