Directions
Puree washed tomatoes in electric blender; pass through a fine sieve. There should be a little over 1 pint puree. Chill thoroughly in fridge, and just before serving add sugar, salt, onion juice and the juice and grated rind of lemon. Beat well until smooth; stir in cream and add diced ham and cucumber. (Garnish with freshly chopped parsley.) I mix sugar, salt, lemon and tomato before hand, then at the last minute, I add double cream and onion juice (finely grated onion). After a good stir, I add the cubed ingredients and serve forthwith.
