Pickled Green Tomatoes

I keep forgetting to post this - at the end of the season we had tons of green tomatoes on the vine when the first frost hit - well i was not going to let all those tomatoes go to waste, so i pickled them and this is a really simple way of doing it. And it works well with other veggies too.

Pickled Green Tomatoes

Ingredients

4 cups of sliced green tomatoes
1 large onion halved and sliced
6 sprigs of fresh dill
3 cups white vinegar
3 cups of water
1 cup raw sugar
1 table spoon yellow mustard seeds
1 table spoon fennel seeds
1 table spoon celery seeds
1 table spoon pepper corns - what ever you have on hand
1 tab;e spoon salt

Directions
In a large sauce pan add all the ingredients with the exception of the tomatoes, onions and dill. Place over medium high heat, stir and when it just starts to boil remove from heat and let cool.

Place tomatoes, onions an dill into three jars, pour in cooled pickling sauce, seal and place in fridge over night.

This will last in the fridge for months.

I just served the tomatoes of greens the other night, Michael really likes these.

Enjoy Cooking
