How to pickle tomatoes.
We take not a small container. It could be a bucket, a large pan or a barrel.
According to tradition, we place leaves down at the bottom. On top is a layer of tomatoes. You don’t have to line each row with spices, just add them periodically to the tomatoes when laying them.
Fill the container - fill it with brine. And then we do it the way our grandmothers did - put a rag on top of the tomatoes and press them down.
