Does anyone here make tomato jelly/jam? [View all]

My mom used to and it was delicious (involved raisins iirc) but I can't find her recipe and she's no longer here to ask.
I think we're going to have an abundance of tomatoes here soon, so I am going to make jelly, something I have never done before.
Any tips or recipes will be appreciated, and thank you!
