Dill Pickled Cherry Tomatoes Recipes

PICKLED CHERRY TOMATOES

Steps:

• Wash the cherry tomatoes. You're going to use enough (depending on the specific size) in this recipe to fill 16 oz. jar.
• Add the tomatoes, garlic, dill, mustard seed, yellow onion, and peppercorn into your jar.
• Don't worry that the spices settle at the bottom, they will rise up again and evenly distribute their flavor when you add the brine.
• Mix the vinegar, water, salt, and sugar in a stainless steel pan and bring to a boil.
• As soon as it reaches a good boil, pour it over the cherry tomato mixture in the jar until the tomatoes are just covered.
• Put the top on immediately and put into the refrigerator.

PICKLED CHERRY TOMATOES

Steps:

• Simmer the washed mason jars and lids in the large pot of water to sterilize the jars before filling them.
• As the jars are simmering, wash and dry the cherry tomatoes. Remove any leaves that may be attached. Using a clean knife, needle or skewer, prick each cherry tomato to allow the brine to penetrate the tomatoes. Peel the garlic cloves and cut them in half.
• Measure out all the dry ingredients listed above. In a dry pan over medium heat, gently toast the dill seed, mustard seed, black peppercorns, and chili flakes. Once the spices are toasted remove the spices from the pan and set aside.
• Measure out the vinegars, water, sugar and salt, and bring them to a boil in a small pot.
• As the mixture heats up, remove the mason jars and lids from the large pot of water. Gently place the jars on a dishtowel. Carefully fill each hot jar with an equal amount of the toasted spice mix, 1 half garlic clove, and one sprig of garlic. Pack the jars with the pricked cherry tomatoes.
• When the jars are filled and the pickling liquid has come to a boil, carefully pour the hot liquid into each jar, leaving a 1/2 inch of space to the rim of the jar. If you spilled a little, wipe the rims of the jars with a clean cloth to ensure the jars seal properly.

PICKLED CHERRY TOMATOES

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Wash 2 wide-mouth, 16-ounce mason jars with lids with hot, soapy water and dry thoroughly.
• Wash and dry the tomatoes and remove and discard any stem ends still attached. Use a skewer or toothpick to poke a hole all the way through each of the tomatoes. This helps the pickling brine infuse its way into each tomato and keeps them from floating up inside of the jars.
• Evenly divide the tomatoes, garlic cloves, and rosemary sprigs, between the two prepared jars.
• In a medium saucepan, combine the white vinegar, water, granulated sugar, kosher salt, black peppercorns, and red pepper flakes.
• Bring to a boil over high, stirring until sugar dissolves.
• Remove from heat and allow to cool for 10 minutes.
• Pour over the tomatoes in the mason jars.
• Cover with a tight-fitting lid and chill for at least 2 days to allow the flavors to combine and infuse before enjoying.
