Servings: persons

30 green tomatoes (about 7-1/2 lbs.)
6 onions, large
3/4 cup pickling salt
1 tablespoon mustard seeds
1 tablespoon allspice, whole
1 tablespoon celery seed
1 tablespoon whole clove
1 tablespoon dry mustard
1 tablespoon peppercorn, whole
1/2 lemon
2 red sweet peppers
2 1/2 cups brown sugar
3 cups white vinegar

1
Slice tomatoes and onions very thin. Layer them in a large bowl (I use a really clean small plastic pail), sprinkling salt between the layers. Let stand overnight.
2
In the morning, drain in a colander, letting cold water run through the vegetables for a few minutes, then drain well again.
3
Into a large saucepan (I use a roaster) measure sugar and vinegar.
4
Tie all spices loosely in a cheesecloth and add to vinegar mixture. Bring to a boil and add tomatoes, onions and lemon (lemon should be very, very thinly sliced).
5
Remove stem and seed cores from peppers, slice thinly and add to mixture.
6
Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, for 30 minutes (or to desired consistency), stirring occasionally to prevent sticking; remove spice bag.
7
Pack pickles in sterilized jars and seal.
8
Enjoy.
