- You will need 1 gallon sliced tomatoes for this recipe; about 7 pounds of green tomatoes are sufficient.
- Wash, remove stem ends and slice sufficient tomatoes to yield 1 gallon.
- Place half the sliced tomatoes in a large bowl, sprinkle with 1/2 c. coarse salt, add in remaining tomatoes and sprinkle with remaining 1/2 c. salt. Cover and set aside overnight.
- Drain tomatoes very thoroughly; throw away liquid. Heat 4 c. vinegar and 2 c. sugar to boiling in a heavy saucepan or possibly kettle. Stir till sugar is dissolved.
- Make a spicebag by cutting a double thickness of cheesecloth into a 10-inch square. Place the cloves, mace, and cinnamon, that has been broken into smaller pcs, onto the cheesecloth. Tie the corners to secure spices from becoming loose.
- Add in spice bag to warm vinegar mix; add in liquid removed tomatoes and simmer for 10 min.
- Immediately pack into liquid removed, sterilized jars; seal tightly.
- Yield: About 4 pints pickles.
