Step 1

Add vinegar, water, and salt to a microwave safe dish and stir.  If salt does not dissolve completely, microwave and stir in 30 second increments until it does.

Step 2

Place sliced garlic - I suggest starting with no more than half a clove per 24 ounce jar - and tomatoes into jars.  (These are my very favorite jars!).

Step 3

Pour brine over tomatoes, and tap gently on the table to bring bubbles to the surface.  Add more brine if need be.

Step 4

Cover and shake gently, refrigerate overnight.

Step 5

Enjoy!
