How to prepare cabbage salad for the winter.

All the vegetables that we need for homemade assorted vegetables (cabbage, sweet peppers, onions, apples, tomatoes and carrots) need to be sorted out from spoiled ones and washed.

Then we start chopping vegetables to create an assortment.

We will chop the cabbage thinly.

The carrots need to be boiled until half cooked and cut into strips.

Cut the onion (pre-peeled) into thin half rings.

Remove the core from the apples and cut into thin slices.

Remove the seeds and stalks from the sweet peppers, first cut each pepper into four parts (lengthwise), and then cut into strips (crosswise).

After chopping, transfer all the vegetables into a spacious enamel bowl (basin), add salt and mix gently but thoroughly. Let's mix without fanaticism! Do not rub with your hands!

Wash half-liter jars in hot water and dry.

On the bottom of each jar we put spices (the quantities described above) and a tomato cut into 4-8 pieces. Tamp the cabbage salad firmly into the jars, thereby mashing the tomatoes.

We close the filled jars with lids and sterilize for 30 minutes, then quickly roll them up and turn them upside down, leaving them in this form until they cool. We store our homemade preparations for the winter in a cool place.

To serve, a ready-made salad with cabbage, apple and vegetables can be seasoned with various dressings, sunflower or olive oil, and mayonnaise. And small children can be given salad just like that, without seasoning with anything.
