Every time I’ve mentioned this recipe to someone, their first reaction “Pickled tomatos? I’ve never heard of that!” And when they try them they’re blown away by how incredibly delicious they are! My first attempt at this recipe was with Candyland currant tomatoes and they’re absolutely perfect in this application, producing nice, small, firm, flavourful pickles.
