Preparation for pickle soup from fresh cucumbers for the winter

I suggest you make this cucumber dressing, and a step-by-step photo recipe will help you easily cope with this preservation. This cucumber pickle preparation for a working housewife saves a lot of time when preparing the dish.

How to make cucumber preparations for pickle sauce

This preparation can be made from overgrown and very large cucumbers. Peel them from the thick peel and remove the seeds (if necessary). Conveniently overgrown cucumber barrels, first peel them with a vegetable peeler, then cut them lengthwise and remove the seeds from the resulting “boats” with a teaspoon. Cut the cucumbers into 5 mm cubes.

As a result, we should have 800 grams of ready-made cucumber slices.

Peel the onion (150 grams or 4 medium onions) and cut into quarters.

You can cut the onion into half rings, but if you continue to use this dressing in a salad, the half rings will look less aesthetically pleasing.

We need 3 large cloves of garlic. Cut it as you wish. I just put it through the press. It's simple and fast.

Mix cucumbers, onions and garlic. Add 60 grams (3.5 level tablespoons) of sugar, 30 grams (1 heaped tablespoon) of salt, 9% vinegar - 40 milliliters, vegetable oil - 50 milliliters.

Mix everything carefully with a spoon and put it in the refrigerator overnight.

In the morning we see the following picture: the cucumbers gave juice and were completely immersed in brine.

This means it’s time to begin the final stage. Pour the ingredients into the cooking pot and boil the contents for exactly 5 minutes.

At that time sterilize banks. Pour the hot preparation into the prepared container. It is best to use small jars, preferably even less than 500 grams. From all the products I got 4 jars of 180 grams and 1 jar of 300 grams.

The pickle preparation is closed with sterile lids and screwed on. After that, we cover it with a warm blanket for a day, and then put it away for storage in a cool place.

This cucumber dressing for soups and salads in winter will be just a lifesaver for any housewife. Everything has already been cleaned and cut, just open it and put it in - either in a pickle sauce or in a vinaigrette.
