Ingredients
- 6 medium-sized green tomatoes
- 2 cups white vinegar
- 1 cup water
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon kosher salt
- 3 garlic cloves
- 4 dill sprigs
- 1 teaspoon black peppercorns
- 1 teaspoon mustard seeds
- 0.5 teaspoon red pepper flakes
Directions
Step 1
Wash the green tomatoes thoroughly and cut them into wedges or thick slices, depending on your preference.
Step 2
In a medium saucepan, combine white vinegar, water, granulated sugar, and kosher salt. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat, stirring until the sugar and salt have dissolved. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
Step 3
While the brine cools, sterilize two pint-sized glass jars by washing them in hot, soapy water and rinsing well. Set them aside to air dry or dry with a clean towel.
Step 4
Divide the garlic cloves, dill sprigs, black peppercorns, mustard seeds, and red pepper flakes evenly between the jars.
Step 5
Pack the sliced green tomatoes tightly into the jars, leaving about 1/2 inch of space at the top.
Step 6
Carefully pour the warm brine over the tomatoes, ensuring all slices are fully submerged. Leave about 1/4 inch of headspace at the top of each jar.
Step 7
Use a clean knife or a spoon handle to gently tap the sides of the jars to release any trapped air bubbles.
Step 8
Seal the jars with their lids and allow them to cool to room temperature. Once cool, refrigerate the jars for at least 48 hours before enjoying to allow the flavors to meld.
Step 9
Store the pickled green tomatoes in the refrigerator for up to one month.
