Twists for the winter - what you can do

In fact, you can pickle or pickle almost any fruit or vegetable for the winter. There is absolute freedom of imagination here. Sometimes recipes combine twists of seemingly incompatible things. And in the end everything turns out simple, tasty and healthy. For example, have you heard about adjika made from plums? And its recipe is very simple, even a novice housewife can handle it.

For plum adjika you need:

  • ripe plum 2 kg;
  • onions 3 pcs;
  • chili pepper 1 medium pod;
  • bell pepper, large, 5 pcs;
  • garlic 4 cloves;
  • table vinegar 3 tbsp. l.;
  • sugar 2 tbsp. l.;
  • table salt 1 tsp.

Preparation:

  1. Wash all products, sort out seeds, stalks or skins.
  2. Cut peppers and onions into cubes.
  3. Pass the garlic through a hand press.
  4. Grind all ingredients through a meat grinder 2 times.
  5. Place the mixture in a saucepan and simmer over low heat for 60 minutes.
  6. Place in sterilized jars and screw on with a tin lid.

How to properly make twists for the winter

Properly prepared jars are the guarantee that the preservation will last as long as you need.

Preparing jars involves sterilizing them. This kills excess microorganisms, which means the products will remain of good quality and will bring all their vitamins to the table.

First of all, the jars need to be washed thoroughly. You can do it in the usual way - with a sponge and any detergent. But some housewives prefer to wash cans of soda before twisting. Afterwards, rinse thoroughly with clean water. You can sterilize jars in the following ways:

  1. Pour boiling water over the jar, then place it on the boiling kettle. You can use a special lid with a hole and a regular pan.
  2. Pour boiling water into the jar, pour it out and repeat the procedure. Leave the boiling water in the container for a couple of minutes.
  3. Place the container in the oven. Then light the gas and preheat the oven to 150 degrees. Without extinguishing the fire, keep the jars in it for 20 minutes.
  4. Place wet jars in the microwave. Turn on maximum power and dry the container.

Iron lids are rolled up with a special machine. Popularly called a key. You can purchase it at any chain grocery store. To properly close the workpieces with iron lids, use the following tips:

  • pour the preserved food into the prepared jar;
  • cover the top with a boiled lid;
  • place the machine on top;
  • carefully turn the handle of the machine clockwise;
  • At the same time, carefully twisting the handle, this is done to gently compress the lid - this way the sealing will be complete.

Check to see if the container is screwed tightly. To do this, simply tilt the container with the lid down. If you hear gurgling or liquid starts oozing through the lid, you need to redo it.

It is best to place freshly closed jars on the floor, lid down. Wrap them in unnecessary rags, preferably overnight. In the morning, the jars should be placed on the bottom and taken to the cellar. It should be dark and cool. If this is not possible, store away from heating elements.

  • 1 kg. bell pepper,
  • 300 grams of garlic,
  • 4 pieces of hot pepper,
  • p/oil 250 gr.,
  • vinegar - 100 gr. 6%.,
  • sugar - 1 tbsp. l.,

How to cook

Grind sweet and hot peppers, tomatoes and garlic through a meat grinder. Place all the twisted vegetables in the pan, add salt, sugar, cut the eggplants into cubes and pour in the vegetable matter. oil. Cook for 50 minutes. Finely chop the greens and place them in the pan and cook for another 10 minutes. At the end, pour vinegar, mix and put into jars.

This is the original recipe. I made some changes: instead of vinegar I put 1 tablespoon of essence. Sugar instead of 1 spoon I put 5 tablespoons. Cooked for 30 minutes and after adding the greens, another 10 minutes. I poured vegetable oil into the eye, but much less than 250 grams. Adjika turned out spicy and tasty. You can spread it on bread and as a snack with borscht... It turned out to be 6 pieces of 0.5 liter jars and I still have to try it.

Basil sauce recipe

Ingredients for making basil sauce:

  • tomato puree 4 l.
  • a lot of basil... no matter how much
  • onions 3 pcs.
  • tomato paste 3-4 tbsp.
  • garlic 3-4 heads
  • chili pepper 4-5 pcs.
  • vegetable oil 1/3 tbsp
  • rock salt
  • sugar 2-3 tbsp.
  • collection of herbs

How to do

Grind the tomatoes, hot peppers, half the basil and garlic in a way convenient for you. I first poured boiling water over the tomatoes, then removed the skins from them and chopped them through a meat grinder. Add salt and let it boil.

Meanwhile, sauté finely chopped onion over low heat. Do not fry, bring it to transparency. Pour into tomato mixture. Add tomato paste, sugar and boil for half an hour. Finely chop the remaining basil and garlic and add to the sauce. Season with spices.

Let's try... what's missing for your taste... salt, chili, paste... By the way... if you're not a fan of spicy things... well, you don't have to put in the chili. Reduce the amount or replace with paprika. I wanted hot sauce. At the end I sprinkled some more dry chili.

Pour into jars and overnight under a fur coat.

Cucumbers in tomato adjika

All my family and friends love this cucumber salad. Firstly, the tomato sauce here is very tasty, and secondly, the cucumbers are hard and crunchy under the teeth, hence the name. They go great with any side dish and meat. Besides, I’ll tell you a secret that men adore them, because this salad appetizer is simply great. But their main advantage for us is that the crunches are prepared very quickly, so you don’t have to spend the whole day at the stove.

Ingredients:

  • cucumbers 2 kg.
  • tomatoes 2 kg.
  • bell pepper 7 pcs.
  • garlic 150 gr.
  • 2 hot chili peppers
  • salt 2 tbsp
  • sugar 250 gr.
  • vegetable oil 150 ml.
  • vinegar 9% 80 gr.

Before cooking, cucumbers should be washed and left in water for 2 hours. In the meantime, let's start preparing tomato juice. Wash the tomatoes and grind them in a meat grinder or food processor. But I don’t really like salads that contain tomato skin, so I always use a manual juicer for preparations that contain tomato juice. She copes with her duties perfectly, the juice is squeezed out to the last drop and there is a minimum of waste. So, for those who don’t have it, I advise you to buy it, it will give a head start to all the notorious branded juicers, where a lot of pulp remains and a lot of juice is lost.

Grind the pepper and garlic in a blender or meat grinder and set aside separately on a plate.

Now we take our well-done cucumbers out of the water and cut them into rings 1.5 cm thick, and if they are thick, then in half. But you can cut the cucumber into four parts crosswise and cut into two or three equal parts, depending on the length of the cucumber, it all depends on your imagination. I make the salad in two batches and cut the cucumbers into different shapes, it’s more interesting, it turns out two different-looking salads.

Meanwhile, put the tomato juice on the stove and cook for 10 minutes, then throw in the garlic and pepper, pour in the vinegar, add butter, salt and sugar and cook for another 10 minutes. Already the smell of adjika began to soar around the kitchen, so much so that it was impossible not to try it, which is what we did. And only now we throw in the chopped cucumbers and cook for 5 minutes from the moment of boiling, no more, otherwise it will no longer be crisps, but a cucumber mash.

Pour the salad into hot sterilized jars, roll up the lids and turn over. There is no need to wrap the jars with anything. Now the Crunchy salad is ready for storage.

No-boil condiment made with plums, peppers and garlic

  • 1 kg sweet pepper (red),
  • 1 kg plums (pitted so that they separate well),
  • 200 grams of garlic,
  • 1-2 pieces of hot pepper or as you like.

Pass all this through a meat grinder (preferably a fine one). Add 0.5 liters of tomato paste, sauce (whatever you like) + 1 glass of sugar, + 1.5 tbsp. spoons of salt + vinegar (to taste).

Mix everything well and put it in small sterile jars. Do not cook anything. It's done quickly. And it gets eaten quickly. Keeps well in the refrigerator. The yield of the finished product is about 3 liters.

Korean eggplant, how to cook

It turns out to be quite a sharp thing.

Products per half serving

  • Cut 2.5 kg eggplant into strips, add a handful of salt and leave for 5-6 hours
  • carrots - 150 g grated on a coarse grater,
  • sweet pepper - 150 g in strips,
  • onion - 150 g - into strips,
  • garlic through a press -150 grams (I still took 100 grams of garlic - it turns out spicy), who really likes it very spicy, you can add a little hot pepper - pour it all over with vinegar, I took 5% vinegar, about 6 tbsp, see for yourself to taste, if you like it more sour, mix and leave for 5-6 hours
  • Squeeze the eggplants and mix with vegetable dressing, stir
  • pour oil into the pan, my mother gave 300 ml in the recipe, but it seemed too much to me, I added 200 ml of vegetable oil, heat it up, put the vegetables in the oil, simmer until the eggplant is ready, but so as not to boil for about 25 minutes, it took me about 40 minutes (too thick cut).
  • Stir so that the salad does not burn. When everything had been stewing together for about 15 minutes, I tasted it, there seemed to be enough vinegar, but I added a little salt, a little red hot pepper, paprika powder, black pepper, mixed everything and simmered until tender.
  • Place hot in sterilized jars and roll up.

Caviar for the winter “Beans”

An original recipe for making caviar from beans. Beans and garlic give it a special taste.

Green beans - 1 kg. wash, cut and simmer in vegetable oil. When ready, remove to a bowl with a slotted spoon.

I put 700 grams of onion, cut into half rings, into the pan. Fry.

Add 0.5 kg. carrots, then 1 kg. eggplant, fry.

Add 1 kg of sweet red pepper, then 1 kg of tomatoes. Everything is cut into strips. Add beans to this mixture and simmer.

Add chopped parsley, 2 tbsp salt, 2 tbsp. sugar, chili and ground black pepper to taste, 1 teaspoon of essence 70%, and 2 heads of finely chopped garlic.

Simmer until cooked, place in sterile jars and cover.

Yield: 6 pieces of 700 gram jars.

You can change the quantity of products at your discretion. But this is the best option.

And don’t “stew” it so it doesn’t turn out to be a mess.
