PICKLED GREEN TOMATOES

Steps:

• Sterilize the jars. Wash the jars and lids in hot soapy water; rinse well. Place a wire rack or empty tuna cans in the pot to keep the jars from touching the bottom. Fill the pot halfway with water and bring to a simmer (do not boil). Submerge the jars in the water and let simmer until you're ready to fill. Sterilize the lids in a separate small pot of simmering water.

HOMEMADE SPICY PICKLED GREEN TOMATOES

Steps:

• Fill two clean, quart canning jars with bite sized green tomatoes. Any variety you prefer is fine, as long as they're green. I used Juliette tomatoes here, but have also used Cherry and Sweet 100, all successfully. Distribute sliced onion, jalapeno slices, red pepper flakes, and minced garlic evenly between the two jars. Wipe the rims clean with a damp paper towel.
• On the stovetop, boil the rings and lids for the jars in water for 5 minutes. Meanwhile, in a separate pot, heat distilled white vinegar until boiling. (Be sure you have enough to fill the jars. - Any remaining vinegar can be poured back into the container after it cools.) Pour hot vinegar into pre-packed jars leaving 1/4 inch space at the top of each jar. Secure one lid and ring per jar, and leave on your counter to cool. The lid will make a single 'pop' sound as it cools, letting you know that it sealed properly. For Best results and flavor, let it sit at least a week before eating -- If you can wait that long.

GARLIC DILL PICKLES AND PICKLED GREEN TOMATOES

Steps:

• 1. In a clean sink or basin, wash the vegetables and drain on paper towels.
• 2. In a large 14 quart pot on stove, combine the water, vinegar, salt and sugar. Bring to a boil stirring to dissolve sugar and salt.
• 3. Slice your cleaned cucumbers in half and the green tomatoes in quarters,
• 4. In each clean jar, place 2 sprigs of fresh dill, 3-4 slices of sliced garlic, 6 slices of onion and 1/4 tsp. of coriander and peppercorns. Fill each jar with enough cucumbers (standing upright) or enough green tomatoes to fill the jar up to the neck leaving 1/2 inch space at the top.
• 5. When the brine in the pot is boiling, carefully ladle hot brine over the vegetables in jars to cover them. Leave 1/4 inch space at the top of jars. Place jar lid and screw ring over jar and turn to seal tightly.
• 6. If canning, follow the manufacturers directions for safe canning and sealing of jars in a large canning pot with enough water over jar to process and seal.
• 7. I do not process mine to seal but store them immediately in the refrigerator for cold process. They are not shelf stable using this method but do not last long enough, anyway! After three days, your pickles and tomatoes are ready to eat. I can keep them safely for two months in the fridge.

PICKLED GREEN TOMATOES (COLD PACK)

Steps:

• 1. Put the vinegar, water and salt for your pickling liquid in a pot and bring to a boil. Once it boils turn off the heat, cover and allow it to cool overnight on the stove in the same pot.
• 2. Wash off tomatoes with cold water. Sterilize Mason jars (You will need clean "hot" sterilized jars for packing)
• 3. In each jar place sprig of dill, clove of garlic, celery seed, 1/2 tsp all spice and green tomatoes. Pour the boiled pickling liquid over the tomatoes to 1/2 inch from the top of the jar.
• 4. Seal jars. HOW TO SEAL JARS: 1. Place cap in position. 2. Partially tighten the tops of the glass jars by screwing the top of the Mason jar on completely, then turning it back one-fourth of a turn to loosen it. 3. Place jars on the rack, lower them into the hot-water bath and boil 2 hours for greens; 1 1/2 hours for roots and tubers; 3 hours for beans; 5 hours for corn and peas; 16 minutes for berries and soft fruits; 20 minutes for hard fruits; and 30 minutes for fruits without sugar. Begin to count the time when the water begins to boil vigorously or jumps. 4. Be sure that the lid of canner is provided with a small hole to allow for escape of steam. 5. Remove the jars from the boiler at the end of the sterilization, or processing, period and seal immediately. 6. Invert the jars to test the seal. If not sealed properly, determine the cause, remedy it, and re-sterilize in the hot-water bath for 10 minutes. 7. Cool as quickly as possible, avoiding drafts. 8. Label, wrap, and store jars in a cool, dark place. A uniform system of labelling will add to the attrac-tiveness of canned goods. Use labels of one size for all jars. Print the name of food and year on each label. Place the labels 4 inches from bottom of quart jars, 2 inches from bottom of pint jars, and l 1/2 inches from bottom of jelly glasses. Put the labels on straight. Wait at least 1 week before eating the tomatoes!

BREAD AND BUTTER PICKLED GREEN TOMATOES

Steps:

• Wash tomatoes thoroughly; cut away any bad spots. Cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices.
• Combine 2 gallons of water and the pickling lime in a large nonreactive bowl, and add tomatoes. Let soak for 24 hours.
• Drain tomatoes, and cover with fresh water. Soak for 4 hours, changing water every half hour. Rinse, and drain well.
• Make syrup: In a large nonreactive pot, combine sugar and vinegar, and bring to a boil. Fold an 8-by-16-inch piece of cheesecloth in half to make a square; rinse with water, and squeeze dry. Place cloves, cinnamon, allspice, celery seeds, mace, and ginger in the cheesecloth; tie closed with one end of a 12-inch piece of cotton string. Tie a loop in the other end, and slip it over the handle of a wooden spoon. Suspend spice bag in the syrup by placing the spoon across the top of the pot. Remove syrup from heat, add tomatoes, and let sit overnight at room temperature, covered with a clean dish towel.
• Remove kitchen towel, and transfer pot back to the stove. Bring tomatoes to a simmer over medium-high heat, and cook, pushing them into the syrup occasionally, until translucent, about 35 minutes.
• Meanwhile, sterilize the jars and lids: Place a round wire rack in the bottom of a large stockpot. The rack should fit as snugly as possible and should stand 1/2 to 1 inch above the bottom of the pot. Wash the jars, lids, and screw bands with hot, soapy water. Stand six pint jars on the rack, and add the lids; it's not necessary to add the screw bands. Fill the pot with enough water to cover jars by 1 to 2 inches; an additional 1 to 2 inches of space should remain below the rim of the pot so the water doesn't overflow. Cover, and bring the water to a simmer (180 degrees.; let the lids and jars simmer 10 minutes. (The lids and jars can continue to simmer until you're ready to fill them.)
• Using a jar lifter, remove a jar from the simmering water, and empty the water back into the stockpot. Place the jar on a clean surface. Using stainless-steel tongs, layer hot tomatoes in hot sterilized pint jars, leaving 3/4 inch of space beneath the rim. Pour hot syrup over tomatoes, covering them by 1/4 inch, leaving 1/2 inch of space beneath the rim. Slide a clean plastic chopstick or wooden skewer along the inside of each jar to release any air bubbles. Wipe the mouth of the jar with a clean, damp cloth. Place hot lid on jar; turn screw band firmly without forcing. Repeat with remaining jars and tomatoes.
• With the jar lifter, return the filled jars to the stockpot of simmering water, making sure the jars aren't touching the sides of the pot and are spaced about 1 inch apart.
• Raise the heat to high, cover the stockpot, and bring the water to a boil. Process the jars in the boiling water for 10 minutes. Remove the jars from the water bath with the jar lifter, and transfer them to a wire rack to cool for 24 hours. As the tomatoes cool, a vacuum will form inside the jar, sealing it; you might hear a popping sound. A slight indentation in the lid indicates the vacuum seal; the lid should not flex up and down when pressed firmly with a finger. Store in a cool, dry, dark place for up to 1 year. The tomatoes can be served when cool but are more flavorful when allowed to mellow in a cool, dry place for 2 to 3 weeks. Store opened jars in the refrigerator.
