Time 40m

Yield 6 pints

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 onion, thinly sliced
1 red bell pepper, ribs and seeds removed, thinly sliced
3 lbs green tomatoes, cut into 1-inch wedges or left whole if small (about 9 medium)
3 -6 garlic cloves
3 -6 small red chilies
3 cups sugar
2 tablespoons coarse salt
4 cups cider vinegar
4 teaspoons mustard seeds
2 teaspoons whole cloves
2 teaspoons celery seeds
2 teaspoons whole allspice

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine onion, bell pepper, and tomatoes.
  • Pack mixture into 3 (1-quart) or 6 (1-pint) canning jars. Place a garlic clove and a red chili in each jar, and set aside.
  • In a large saucepan, combine sugar, salt, vinegar, mustard seeds, cloves, celery seeds, and allspice. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat; stir until sugar dissolves.
  • Pour mixture over produce, leaving a 1/2-inch space at the top of each jar.
  • Wipe rims of excess; screw on lids.
  • Bring a large stock pot of water to a boil. Using canning tongs, gently place jars in boiling water, making sure the water covers the jars (if not, add additional water to cover).
  • Let jars sit in gently simmering water for 10 minutes.
  • Remove; let cool slightly.
  • Check seal by pressing in center of lid. If it doesn't pop back, it is properly sealed. If it does, return jars to water for 10 more minutes.
  • Let sealed jars cool completely.
  • Let pickled tomatoes stand until flavors have melded, at least 2 weeks. Store unopened jars in a cool, dark place up to 6 months. Once opened, jars will keep in the refrigerator for up to 1 month.
