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.

Let’s not waste summer time in vain and idly, dear housewives! We can preserve and prepare good harvests of vegetables for future use! These are the secrets of canning some of the most common types of vegetables that I would like to share with you.

cucumbers

For pickling and pickling, choose cucumbers with black pimples, since white ones are more suitable for fresh eating. If you grow cucumbers at your dacha, pick them in the morning and immediately start preserving them. These cucumbers don’t even require soaking. They just need to be washed well and cleared of soil.

Cucumbers that were picked from the garden a few hours ago need to be soaked in cold water for several hours. They will restore their elasticity and regain lost moisture.

We distribute the cucumbers in the jar sideways to each other, but not tightly, do not press them too hard, otherwise they will lose their “crispness”. For the same reason, you should not fill them with boiling brine, whose temperature is above 90 degrees.

Tomatoes

Only late varieties of tomatoes are used for preservation. You can salt green, red, pink tomatoes. To preserve tomato juice, take tomatoes that are not fleshy, large and very ripe. And for pickling, on the contrary, they are medium and small in size, meaty and strong to the touch.

Of the spices, tomatoes respond best when preserved to parsley, dill, horseradish, garlic, hot capsicum and black peppercorns.

Patissons

It is better to take this vegetable for pickling and pickling of the same size, thin-skinned. We cut off their (squash) stalk with pulp, but no more than one centimeter. It is better to wash the squash with a soft brush in running water. This vegetable does not require soaking. We put small fruits as they are in a jar, and cut large ones into pieces. Squash loves celery (its root), mint leaves, horseradish, parsley, garlic, dill.

Pepper (hot and sweet)

This is a vegetable that, when canned, retains most of its vitamins compared to other vegetables. Red bell peppers are more suitable for pickling. It is better to use hot pepper as a seasoning for other vegetable twists, and white pepper is most suitable for stuffing. It can be frozen and salted.

“Naked” pickled tomatoes For preparation you will need: 1 kg of tomatoes; 1 small bunch of dill; 1 head of garlic; 1/3 pod of hot red pepper. For the marinade: 1/2 liter of water; 1/3 cup sugar; 1/4 cup salt; 1/4 cup 9% vinegar; peppercorns; Bay leaf. Wash the tomatoes. Make cross-shaped cuts on them and pour boiling water over them for 10 minutes. Then place the tomatoes in cold water. Remove the skins from the tomatoes. For the marinade, mix water, vinegar, spices, salt and sugar. Bring to a boil, remove from heat and cool. Finely chop the dill and garlic. Peel the pepper from seeds and cut into half rings. Place peeled tomatoes in a jar, sprinkle with chopped herbs, garlic and red pepper. Pour warm brine and leave to marinate for one day. Delicious quick pickled tomatoes are ready. Bon appetit, make your loved ones happy!

The best recipe for eggplant caviar for the winter Ingredients: -Medium-sized eggplants 1.5 - 2 kg, -Onions 300 - 400 g, -Sweet peppers 3-4 pieces, -Carrots 2 - 3 pieces, -Tomatoes 5 - 6 pieces, - Garlic 2 - 3 cloves, Salt, pepper. First, rinse the eggplants, pierce them in several places with a fork or knife, then place them on a baking sheet and bake in the oven at a temperature of 180-200*C until they become soft. Let the eggplants cool and peel them. Now let's prepare the rest of the vegetables. Cut the onion and pepper into small cubes, grate the carrots. Fry everything in vegetable oil. Now you need to scald the tomatoes with boiling water and remove their skins. I got used to doing it a little differently: I put the tomatoes on the vegetables in the pan and cover them with a lid for a few minutes, then turn them over and cover them again. Fast and convenient! Now, finely chop the eggplants and peeled tomatoes with a knife and add them to the pan with the rest of the vegetables. Salt and pepper to taste. Cover with a lid and evaporate our caviar over low heat, stirring occasionally, until it reaches a thick consistency, but not less than 15-20 minutes. A couple of minutes before cooking, add chopped garlic. Then put it in sterilized warm jars. Seal tightly with lids and turn upside down until morning.

Finger-licking stuffed eggplants with winter vegetables! Small elastic eggplants – 2 kg; 50 gr. dill and parsley; 0.5 kg each of white onions and carrots; Garlic – 1 head; Table salt and vinegar.

Detailed preparation: The eggplants for this recipe should be ripe but firm. There should be no dents, dark spots or other substandard conditions. After washing, remove the stem and adjacent green part from each vegetable. Then cut the vegetables lengthwise on one side to create long “gaps.” Peel the head of garlic and separate it into cloves. Chop the onion and carrots into thin strips, simmer until soft, then mix with garlic, passed through a squeezer. Add salt to taste and finely chopped herbs to the stuffing mixture. In a large saucepan of boiling water, always salted, blanch all the eggplants for 20 minutes. Place immediately into cold water, after half a minute remove and place on a towel to absorb the water. Fill the slits of the blanched eggplants with the vegetable mixture. In a vertical position, place the blanks in liter jars. Pour 1 tablespoon of vinegar 6% or 9% into each, no difference. Sterilize for a long time, at least 40 minutes. If you have an air fryer, then use it for sterilization, in this device the quality will be higher, and it will take only 20 minutes for a liter jar. Roll up the lids and cool the preserves.
