Pickled green tomatoes

[mikekj]

You prepare you favorite dill pickling brine and instead of cucumbers you use quartered green tomatoes.

I like to do this every summer and eat them all the rest of the year.

My brother makes great green tomato pickle relish! I'll have to see if I can find his recipe.

I've done these before, and also made some batches with varying temperatures of chilies in them. They are delicious pickles!

The Wolf river cafe in Rossville serves the best tomato pickle relish with its catfish. I don't know if they start with yellow tomatoes or if something about the process makes them yellow, but it's yellow.
