    The longer tomatoes are in the refrigerator, the saltier they turn out. I especially like tomatoes on the 4th-5th day.

I sometimes put small cherry tomatoes in jars with large tomatoes, so the container looks more full and appetizing. Small tomatoes will be ready faster than those that are larger, so first of all we eat cherry.

The option of keeping the jar at room temperature for two days is allowed.

Lightly salted tomatoes will serve as an excellent addition to meat and potato dishes.

Bon appetit!

For cooking, it is better to use filtered or bottled water that is neutral to taste. If you use tap water, keep in mind that it can give the dish an unpleasant characteristic taste.
