Dill Green Tomatoes

Small firm green tomatoes

Garlic cloves

Celery stalks

Sweet green peppers, quartered OR a few hot peppers

2 quarts white vinegar

1 cup salt

Fresh dill to taste

Pack tomatoes into sterilized quart jars. To each jar add one garlic clove, one celery stalk and four quarters of a green pepper. You can add one hot pepper instead of the four quarters of a green pepper if you like. Mix remaining ingredients and boil for five minutes. Pour into jars and seal at once. This amount of fluid will fill about six quarts. Let sit for at least three to four weeks or longer.
