Green Tomato Pickle Recipe Card

December 1, 2024

This is the Family Recipe for “Green Tomato Pickle”, which is mostly used as a topping for a pot of beans. Sweet, vinegary, and a bit of cloves.

I went through some old files, and found the oldest family reference to this recipe, from Great-Grandma Box herself, and it’s dated 1917.
