Does anyone here have some real on the ground experience with

the Russian style of Tomato Pickles to preserve.........I will look into this more ..

But I think it is a style of pickling in which Large containers can be used....2-4+ quarts and large tomato pickles are preserved (often with other herbs and "end of the garden" produce ) by the salt/sugar method of pickling .

unlike the common vinegar brine method I think this method only preserves 2-3 months ??

it sounds interesting to me ....I would like to get some advise or recipes from this from "real experience " .....not just internet recipes.

I think this is an interesting option to keep produce over some of the winter months .

If it is not a great idea ...I want to know also .
