Ingredients
- 500 g Pear tomatoes
- 4 pieces Fresh rosemary sprigs
- 250 ml White vinegar
- 250 ml Water
- 2 tbsp Granulated sugar
- 1 tbsp Sea salt
- 1 tsp Black peppercorns
- 2 pieces Garlic cloves
- 0.5 tsp Red chili flakes (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Wash the pear tomatoes thoroughly. Using a skewer or toothpick, poke several small holes in each tomato to help them absorb the brine.
Step 2
Peel the garlic cloves and lightly smash them to release their flavor.
Step 3
In a medium saucepan, combine white vinegar, water, granulated sugar, and sea salt. Stir until the sugar and salt dissolve.
Step 4
Add the black peppercorns, garlic cloves, and red chili flakes (if using) to the saucepan.
Step 5
Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for 2 minutes.
Step 6
Meanwhile, prepare clean, sterilized jars. Place one sprig of fresh rosemary at the bottom of each jar.
Step 7
Pack the pear tomatoes tightly into the jars, leaving about 1 cm (1/2 inch) of headspace at the top.
Step 8
Carefully pour the hot brine over the tomatoes, ensuring they are fully submerged. Add a second sprig of rosemary on top for extra aroma.
Step 9
Seal the jars with airtight lids and let them cool to room temperature. Once cooled, refrigerate the jars for at least 48 hours to allow the flavors to meld.
Step 10
Serve the pickled pear tomatoes chilled as a side dish, salad topping, or antipasto. Store in the refrigerator and consume within 2 weeks for optimal freshness.
