Heirloom Tomato Chutney

Heirloom Tomato Chutney

Makes 12 half-pint jars with some extra for sampling

Mix together in a heavy-bottomed pot:
18 cups Heirloom tomatoes, cut in small pieces (cherry tomatoes can be halved or left whole)
6 cups granulated sugar
1 tbsp. salt
3 cups sliced crystallized ginger
2 cups apple cider vinegar
2 Tbsp. Garam Masala
4 3-inch pieces cinnamon stick
2 lemons, thinly sliced

Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring until sugar is dissolved.  Cook down on medium-low heat until mixture is thick.  Stir frequently, especially towards the end, to prevent sticking and burning.
