Pickled pumpkin recipes

It’s unlikely that you’ll surprise anyone with pickled peppers or cucumbers. But I think not every experienced housewife is familiar with pickled pumpkin. Typically, this vegetable is used to make baked goods, porridge, or simply bake with honey. As it turns out, pickled pumpkin is just as good.

Pumpkin recipes

I was also surprised that pumpkin marinated in a variety of ways turns out delicious.

This is a savory, original vegetable appetizer that is delicious on its own.

In addition, it can be served with something and goes well with meat dishes.

Perfect for pies, pies, and salads.

Pumpkin snacks can be prepared both spicy and quite savory, both salty and sweet. At the same time, the cooking process is quite simple, which is why almost everyone can do it.

And the Baltic countries are considered the birthplace of these dishes - such an appetizer is common there, like pickled zucchini in our country. That’s why I want to start with a recipe from Estonia.

Pickled pumpkin “Estonian pineapple”

This type of pickled winter pumpkin is called “Estonian pineapple” due to the fact that the finished pieces really look like this tropical fruit.

What you will need:

  • pumpkin – 1 kg
  • sugar – 1.5 tbsp.
  • water – 500 ml
  • table vinegar 9% - 2-5 tbsp. l.
  • cloves – 8 pcs.
  • allspice – 6 pcs.
  • cinnamon – 1 stick
  • grated nutmeg - optional
  • ginger - a small pinch.

How to cook:

  1. First, you need to cut the pumpkin into small pieces.
  2. The syrup is made from liquid mixed with sugar in water and vinegar. Place the orange pieces in this marinade for 12-24 hours.
  3. Then you need to add spices to the pan with the ingredients.
  4. Cook the pumpkin over low heat for half an hour to an hour. It depends on how big the pieces are.
  5. The finished slices should become somewhat transparent. Leave to cool in syrup for at least 30 minutes. After this, you can put all the pieces into jars.

Spiced pumpkin for the winter

The taste is very similar to Estonian pumpkin. Of course, cooking will require some effort, but such an appetizer can be stored until the next harvest.

  • Cuisine: Baltic
  • Type of dish: preparations
  • Method of preparation: canning
  • Servings: 1 jar
  • 30 min

Ingredients:

  • pumpkin – 800 g
  • ground nutmeg – 1 tsp.
  • cinnamon sticks – 1-2 pcs.
  • ground ginger – ½ tsp.
  • table vinegar 9% - 20 g
  • granulated sugar – 150 g
  • clove buds – 3-4 pcs.
  • water – 500 g.

Cooking method

Then, so that the pumpkin can quickly marinate and cook, I cut it into medium squares. In this form it will be convenient to put it in jars.

I heat the water almost to a boil and add all the granulated sugar, stirring until it gradually dissolves.

You will also need spices for the marinade: cinnamon sticks, cloves.

And also ground ginger. I add vinegar to the marinade so that the pumpkin can be stored all winter without problems.

I don’t forget about ground nutmeg. The marinade should boil for about 5 minutes. Then I turn it off and remove it from the heat.

I put all the slices in the hot marinade. While the marinade cools, the pumpkin will marinate. This will take at least 2 hours.

After that, I put everything on the fire and boil for 10 minutes.

I pour the hot, semi-finished pumpkin along with the marinade into clean glass jars.

I set it to sterilize for 10 minutes. During this time, the vegetable will reach full readiness.

I seal them with lids and cover them with a warm blanket. Any preservation should cool slowly under a blanket so that all preparations are well stored in winter.

In winter, such a spicy pumpkin will surprise each of your guests; the taste is something!
