πŸ₯’ 15-minute Pickled Green Tomatoes (no canning required)


Hey there,

When you grow your own tomatoes, it seems like there are always so many that don't have time to ripen. Don't toss them - pickle them (or fry them - more on that below)! These refrigerator Pickled Green Tomatoes are crisp, tangy, and surprisingly quick to make. You don't need to boil anything or even turn on the stove.

The whole process takes just 15 minutes of prep, with zero canning required. Just slice, brine, and wait. In just 6 hours (even better in a day or two), you'll have perfectly pickled tomatoes that are way better than anything you can buy and they'll last for a full month!

Pro tip: Use firm, unripe tomatoes for the best texture. If they're starting to soften or show any red, save them for something else - you want that crisp bite that only truly green tomatoes can give you.

Until Sunday,
