The cake took first believe it or not
See there really are green tomatoes in it.
The relish came in second with the salsa a close third. The Jam hmmmm I'm not sure it comes in at all but, I did reserve a small corner of my fruit room in the very back corner for the 8 pints I got. Not my favorite.

How much salt and is it mixed with water? Uh, I need more particulars on that step. ;)
I just salted it really good with the salt shaker and after 15 minutes rinsed it really good.
Any cake at this point in my diet looks good even this...interesting...one. ;)
I told my Auntie I saw this on your blog because the poor lady has a wild abundance of green tomato's because her husband was a wild man in their greenhouse this year. I just sent her the recipe!
