Putting It Away

The biggest pleasure and sometimes hardest work is putting away the fruits of your garden labor.  I spent the weekend canning all of the green tomatoes that were left over on the plants before the weather change.  In the past I'd bring the tomatoes in and let them ripen in the house.  This year I decided to use the green tomatoes to make a variety of recipes I had heard about.

I made Piccadilli, which is a pickled tomato concoction used as a southern food condiment and dill green tomato pickles.

Ingredients:  Shredded cabbage, chopped green tomatoes, green and red bell peppers and onions.


Veggies brined overnight
