Wash 4 pint size mason jars, bands and lids in hot soapy water. Rinse and dry with a cloth before starting the pickling process.
Dice and Pack Tomatoes
Wash and dry vegetables thoroughly before using.
Dice green tomatoes and onions into bite size wedges for a relish type pickle, or slices for sandwiches. You can also cut them in larger wedges if desired.
Pack each mason jar with green tomatoes and onions until veggies reach the top of the jar. Be sure to leave 1/2 inch headspace at the top.
Make Pickle Brine
In a large saucepan over medium heat, combine vinegar, water, sugar, garlic, mustard seed, celery seed, seasoned pepper, kosher salt and red pepper flakes. Stir until it comes to a boil and sugar melts. Boil mixture for 3 minutes.
Using a funnel and a ladle, spoon the hot brine into the mason jars until it reaches the top.
Process Jars
Wipe rim of hot jars with a paper towel or cloth. Center lid on each jar and tighten the band. Turn the jars upside down and rest on the kitchen counter until they reach room temperature.
Once the jars have cooled and can be safely handled, rinse them under cool water to get rid of any residue left on the jars. Wipe dry with a cloth and place in the refrigerator (upright) for up to 1 month.
This recipe makes 4 pints which can serve 16 people.

This recipe is an adaptation of a recipe in Fred Dubose’s wonderful cookbook from a bygone era, “Four Great Southern Cooks.” It is sort of a cross between a pickle and a relish. Do not worry about the salt; most of it will go out when the tomatoes are drained.
