This one speaks for itself. From the Aunt Kitty (my grandma Katherine Giordano DeLucia) archives:
My favorite part: Hard to say. Either: "garlic?" or "Good luck"
The way may Dad (Ralph) makes it, there is never a question about adding garlic. I myself will put one or two cloves of garlic in per quart container (they are hiding in the picture). Dad, on the other hand, puts just enough tomatoes in to "hold the garlic in the jar". Seriously, the man loves his garlic.
If you can't read the original (which is a digital picture of a folded printout from a scanned copy of the original), here it is transcribed:
Green Tomatoes
3 parts water
1 part vinegar
1 Tbsp salt
Garlic ?
Good luck -- K.D.
(My notes from the last time I made these):
Used 4 cups apple cider vinegar, 12 cups water, and 6 Tbsp canning salt. This was enough for approximately 10 quarts.
As Grandma would say "a salute" (to your health).
What a fabulous recipe. It is so much like the ambiguous recipes we've been getting from Gigi and Bubba. Let me get this straight -- according to Kitty, we could do 3000 gallons of water, 1000 gallons of vinegar, and ONE tablespoon of salt?
