• To pickle tomatoes evenly, choose fruits of the same size.
• Do not tie the bag too tightly, there must be room because tomatoes produce pickled juice during pickling.
• The smaller the size of the tomatoes, the faster they will salt out. Focus on your chosen tomatoes.
• If your tomatoes are salty, just put some more sugar in the bag, shake and remove for 15-20 minutes.
• No matter how tasty salted tomatoes were obtained, do not harvest them for future use, as their shelf life is short. The salting process is quick and easy, so you can prepare a snack in small portions.
