How to make cauliflower with tomatoes and vegetables for the winter
We start canning by processing and preparing all the ingredients. First you need to divide the main ingredient of the preparation, that is, cabbage, into small inflorescences.
Simmer cabbage inflorescences in boiling water. 5 minutes is enough. Drain the cabbage into a sieve.
Grind the remaining vegetables and herbs into a meat grinder. It is better to twist the tomatoes using the smallest mesh or blender.
Transfer the slightly cooled cabbage into a deep cooking pan. Pour in the resulting vegetable sauce.
Add the remaining liquid and bulk ingredients according to the recipe to the vegetables. Stir a little.
Boil the mixture over medium heat for no more than 15 minutes. You can’t keep it on the fire for a long time, otherwise the cabbage will boil. 10-15 minutes after boiling, the cabbage can be spread out and rolled into sterile jars.
Wrap the preserved jars while still hot in a warm blanket and keep them there until they cool down. Then, you can put the aromatic cabbage in the pantry.
It is very pleasant in winter to enjoy tender, tasty and unusual, thanks to tomatoes and peppers, cauliflower with a spicy garlic tang.
