Blanch the tomatoes and rinse in cold water, then peel and deseed them. Cut into cubes, reserving the juice. Boil this juice down by half. Weigh the tomato flesh and add an equal weight of preserving sugar to the juice along with the diced tomatoes. Add the herbs (tip: tie the herbs together, this makes them easier to remove after cooking). Add the spices to taste. Simmer gently for about 30 minutes. Remove the herbs and pour everything into prepared jars. It’s best to let it “ripen” for a few days before serving.
