Description
Understand that preserving - not quite the December session, but somehow the fall didn't have inspiration and green tomatoes ))) More as an excuse I can add that I found this recipe a couple of years ago about this time of the year and barely waited for autumn to make it a reality. To be honest, it attracted me more form than content. But when we opened the first jar, the tomatoes were unreal! The most cynical inception, like me, ate them, and my mom put a jar in the fridge and admire ))) So if you find green tomatoes, you can also Christmas gift of them bungled. And happy anniversary, Pillsbury!

Cooking
Garlic cut into thin slices, carrot slices.
On the tomatoes to make cuts on the sides for the ears of garlic, a cut-smile and you dig up the tip of the knife holes for pepper (eyes). It is not very good, but everything seems clear.
Now a bit laborious but fascinating work. Insert peppercorns are the eyes the circles of carrots is a tongue and garlic plate in the lateral incisions is the lugs, as you already knew) Although my family caught on the name "little green men", sometimes I want to call them Emoji - so different from all expression )))
In sterilized jars lay a few slices of carrot, garlic, a couple of Bay leaves, I still had a dick. Sprigs of dill, horseradish leaves, currants, cherries - preferably, too, but where to take in the winter? ))) I sterilize banks in the oven (I have electric). Washed with soda cans put on the grill upside down in a cold oven. Wait, when heated to 200 degrees and turn off.
Banks carefully lay little green men, pour boiling water. Leave for 20 minutes.
After 20 minutes drain the water into a saucepan, add salt, sugar, a few peas allspice. Stir and bring to a boil. I have indicated the amount of salt and sugar in 3-liter jar. The original recipe is for three 3-liter jars need 100 g of salt, 400 g sugar.
Cover I boil for 5-7 minutes. In each jar (3 l), add 1 tsp of vinegar. When the brine boils, pour it in the jars and tighten the lids. Banks to turn upside down, carefully wrap and leave until cool. This process I have not photographed, can improvise, come up and favorite Blankie back and an old blanket )))
And this men of last year in my Christmas gift) Please love and favor!
