How to prepare canned tomato and cucumber salad for the winter
I make the salad in quart jars. Therefore, the calculation of products will be just for this volume. Let's get started! The photo shows the products that will be required for preparation.
To the bottom prepared jar pour a little vegetable oil. A couple of teaspoons will be enough. Slice cucumbers and tomatoes. The shape and size of the cut does not matter. Cut as you like. We put them in a jar. Better - in layers, adding onion rings and garlic cloves - to taste. If your cucumbers have thick skins, you can peel them. I sometimes even use large overripe fruits for this salad. Here's how I did it.
At this time, boil the water. And in the jar we put 2 teaspoons of salt, 1 teaspoon of granulated sugar, 2 tbsp. directly on the vegetables.spoons 9% vinegar.
Pour boiled water over the future salad.
Sterilize the lid. Cover the jar with it. Place the salad in a saucepan with water. We send the pan to the fire. Sterilizing workpieces 20 minutes. It is better to first place a small towel on the bottom of the pan. This will help the jar not to “bounce”.
Remove the jar from the boiling water. Let's roll up. No need to wrap it up. Just leave it to cool in the air.
Next, we simply send the canned tomato and cucumber salad for storage. I have it in my cellar for a whole year. Stores perfectly. But you can also store it at room temperature.
