   into each jar, over tomatoes.

   Bring to rolling boil; lower heat and boil 3 to 4 minutes.  Pour into
   sterilized jars up to shoulder (line).  Seal immediately with sterile lid.
   
   To sterilize jars, put jars in pan of water upside down.  Boil water and
   cool.  (Water is sucked up into jars.)
