Ingredients:
4 large tomatoes
2 stalks celery, chopped very fine
1/4 bell pepper, chopped very fine
1 teaspoon accent (same as MSG)
4 tablespoons sugar
salt and pepper to taste
2 cups water

Peel the tomatoes by soaking them in boiling water for
one minute. Gently pull away the skin. Place tomatoes in a large pot and add the remaining ingredients. Cover and boil gently for 15 minutes, until tomatoes are tender. Serve with croutons. I like my stewed tomatoes with toast and butter. Whenever I am sick, this is the dish I crave!

The above recipe is from the book out of print cookbook "cajun country cooking" by John and Glenna Uhler published 1976..
