Yum. Pickled Halibut and pickled cod.
My step-dad used to make a killer pickled halibut.
Wish I could find that recipe.

I make tons of pickles, but never tomatoes. I will soon have an abundance of tomatoes too. If you come across any, let us know

Best book on pickling I have found is So Easy To Preserve by University of Georgia Coop Extension www.soeasytopreserve.com The book has many many great recipes

Pickling is a lot of fun but I've never followed a recipe. I do that a lot. There are general guidelines, as in: Don't boil tomatoes or cucumbers as they'll get mushy and nasty. Some veggies need a quick boil (I just boil in the vinegar/water mix), like Cauliflower (fav of mine). I recently pickled cauliflower, radishes, carrots, jalapenos, anise root, green beans and asparagus. When I did tomatoes, I used green tomatoes, sliced thin and used a fairly standard, dill/garlic pickle brine but added a bit of honey, star anise, clove and allspice. I actually really liked those spices with the pickled tomatoes. They're great on a sandwich.

Good Luck!

Wife and I made our first ever batch of pickles yesterday. We grew some "Lemon" cucumbers this year, and wanted some way to preserve them. We just used a one-step mix, but we've bought some pickling spices etc., thinking about pickling some of the carrots that need to come out of the ground. We also grew some yellow tomatoes that are small, like cherry-tomato small, but so many have split, I'm not sure how successful that would be. Might sift through and try some if we do the carrots. Decidedly fun.

IF you like pickled things then you should try pickled garlic. I just got some habanero pickled garlic and it is FANTASTIC! It's neither too hot nor too garlicy

Never thought of that. I have about 20 heads of garlic from the garden wondering what to do with them
