Kherson 'naked' tomatoes — a quick pickle recipe ready the next day

The photo shows a finished jar of Kherson-style 'naked' tomatoes: ripe fruits layered with fragrant herbs, garlic slices, bay leaves and whole black peppercorns. Beside it on a rustic wooden surface lie the fresh ingredients — a garlic bulb, loose cloves, bunches of dill and parsley — with a bowl of juicy red tomatoes in the background. The image clearly illustrates a simple, fast pickle that is ready to eat just the next day.
