The recipe for unusual cucumbers
Many people are afraid to experiment with harvesting vegetables for the winter and completely in vain. Those who do not have time for such experiments, We offer a proven recipe that is simply impossible not to fall in love once and for all. The peculiarity of this recipe is that as a result, the cucumbers are tasted about the same as barrel.
The main ingredients:
- cucumber – 1 kg;
- salt – 1 tablespoon;
- currant leaves and horseradish leaves – 10 g;
- dill – 1 bunch;
- garlic – 1 head.
Cooking method
The leaves of currant and horseradish are thoroughly washed with running water. We clean all the cloves of garlic and cut each scrubber into several thick plates. From the kilogram of cucumbers we select despised cucumbers or non-standard large, wash well and rub on a coarse grater along with the peel.
For 1 liter of mashed mass, add 1 tablespoon of salt with slide. We give a little rest, so that the mass gives juice. To the bottom pre-sterilized banks (here you can use any convenient or proven method) put the leaves of black currant, on top are several plates of garlic.
We wash the cucumbers of medium and small size and try stack them horizontally in a jar. Spread our rubbed on top a cucumber mass with juice, which she managed to empty during this time. The gruel itself must be well tampered so that the juice leaks as much as the bottom of our jar. This is followed by a layer of small cucumbers, which this time are covered with dill, a leaf of horseradish, currant leaves and garlic. Once again, put the cucumber mass and if there is room, then pour juice to the brim.
We close the capron lid and put it in the basement or refrigerator. The longer cucumbers stand in a similar brine, the more they will turn out tastier. The first test can already be removed after 2 weeks. In a month cucumbers will get the taste of barrel, but those that can stand up to the end of winter will simply conquer their taste.
The recipe is good in that you can start trying to harvest already in the first summer month, finding the best option for taste qualities and storage time of such cucumbers.
Harvesting options: currant leaves can be supplemented with leaves grapes, apple trees, and even raspberries. You can add garlic to a jar some white grapes to add flavor.
Use: if such a can is opened, then the contents need eat in no more than 2 days, otherwise the product will simply turn sour. Here need to focus on fans of this product and better close a few liter cans than a couple of 3 liter cans, if there is a risk, that the cucumbers “disappear.”
