Quick Pickled Cherry Tomatoes With Dill Recipes

Steps:

• Pour vinegar and water in small saucepan. Add salt, sugar and lemon peel. Bring to a boil, stirring to dissolve sugar and salt. Remove from heat. Let cool 20 minutes.
• Pierce each tomato 2 times with a slender wooden skewer. (I interpreted this as take a toothpick and run it through.) Toss tomatoes, dill, garlic and red pepper in a large bowl. Add cooled vinegar mixture. Let stand at room temp at least two hours and up to eight hours.

Steps:

• Combine vinegar, 3/4 cup water, sugar, spices, and 2 tablespoons salt in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring until sugar is dissolved. Fill clean containers tightly with tomatoes. Add boiling brine to cover completely. Let cool completely. Cover, label, and refrigerate at least 1 week before serving, or up to 3 months.

Steps:

• Bring all ingredients except tomatoes to boil in medium saucepan on medium heat, stirring frequently; simmer on medium-low heat 5 min., stirring occasionally. Cool 5 min.
• Meanwhile, cut large tomatoes into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Pack with cherry tomatoes into 3 (16-oz.) jars with tight-fitting lids, leaving 1/2-inch headspace at top of each jar.
• Pour vinegar mixture over tomatoes, making sure to equally distribute herbs and garlic pieces among the jars. Cool completely.
• Cover jars with lids. Refrigerate 24 hours before serving.

Steps:

• Wash tomatoes and pack in clean, hot quart jars.
• Add 1 dill head, 3 peppercorns and 1 red pepper to each jar.
• Place the pickling spice in the center of a coffee filter or cheesecloth and tie.
• Bring water, vinegar, bag of spices and salt to boil.
• Remove bag.
• Cover tomatoes with brine, leaving 1/2-in. headspace.
• Process in boiling water bath 10 minutes.
• Let set 6 weeks to mellow.

Steps:

• Pierce the bottom of each cherry tomato with a skewer. In a large bowl, place tomatoes, garlic, peppercorns and mustard seed. In a saucepan, bring water, vinegar, salt and sugar to a simmer until sugar and salt dissolves. Pour over tomatoes; cover. Let stand 2 hours. Transfer to jars, if desired; seal tightly. Refrigerate 48 hours before serving and up to 1 month.
