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. Yield 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 done.
  • 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 pepper and ground black pepper to taste, 1 tsp. essence 70%, and 2 heads of finely chopped garlic.

Simmer until cooked, place in sterile jars and cover.

Yield: 6,700 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.

I once thought that blanks were not my thing. But having tried to make some homemade preparations for the winter with my own hands, I was amazed at how tasty it was. I don’t know if my assessment is objective, but for some reason it seems to me that my salted tomatoes and my pickled cucumbers are the most delicious. There must be some kind of magic at work here. Which, by the way, I owe to this site. With the advent of the section “Homemade preparations for the winter,” I managed to overcome my prejudice towards preparations. I remember well from childhood the pictures of a full bath of cucumbers, rows of jars, which for some reason were boiled empty in huge pans, after which it was strictly forbidden to approach them within a cannon shot. All these realities of homemade preparations: basins with gurgling syrup, a tired mother’s figure bent over a giant basket of butter. In general, when I grew up, I decided for myself: “No, no preparations!”

But everything flows and everything changes, and so, starting with instant cabbage, I, unnoticed by myself, reached jam and confitures. Now I make jam too. And I am happy to share with you my mother’s recipes for homemade preparations for the winter. Everything she makes is delicious and beautiful. So enjoy both the process and tea drinking on long winter evenings.
