Cómo preparar Spicy Green Tomato Pickles
- **Sterilize Jars:** Ensure your wide-mouth quart jars and lids are thoroughly cleaned and sterilized. (Refer to your jar manufacturer's instructions for specific sterilization techniques.)
- **Prepare the Brine:** In a large saucepan, combine 2 cups white vinegar and 1 cup water. Bring to a rolling boil.
- **Prep the Tomatoes:** Quarter green tomatoes (halve smaller ones). Aim for approximately 4 cups of quartered green tomatoes per quart jar.
- **Layer the Jars:** Place 2 cloves of garlic and 2-3 jalapeño peppers (or your favorite hot pepper) into each sterilized jar.
- **Pack the Tomatoes:** Tightly pack the quartered green tomatoes into the jars, leaving about ½ inch headspace at the top.
- **Salt and Brine:** Add 1 teaspoon of salt to the top of each jar. Carefully pour the boiling vinegar brine over the tomatoes, leaving ½ inch headspace.
- **Seal the Jars:** Wipe the rims of the jars clean. Apply lids and rings according to the jar manufacturer's instructions.
- **Cool and Seal:** Invert the jars to cool and allow them to seal. (A vacuum seal should form – check by pressing on the center of the lid. It should not flex.)
- **No Water Bath:** Skip the water bath; it can make the pickles mushy.
- **Aging for Flavor:** Allow the pickles to age for at least one month to develop their full, zesty flavor. (They continue to improve with time!)
