Sweet Pickled Cherry Tomatoes

Select small, firm green tomatoes or cherry tomatoes. Pack the tomatoes into sterilized jars and to each quart jar add 1 clove peeled garlic, 1 stalk celery, several strips of green pepper and a large spray of dill. Bring to a boil 2 quarts of water, 1 quart vinegar, and 1/2 cup pickling salt and boil for 5 minutes. Pour the hot brine over the vegetables in the jar and seal. The pickles will be ready to us in about 4 weeks. Hot red pepper, celery seed and mustard see may be added to the vinegar mixture.
