Tomatoes salted in a jar as cask

Fragrant, with a hint in the taste of a tomato billet! Previously, tomatoes were salted in wooden barrels and tubs, and the taste of this preparation was, of course, much more interesting than ordinary pickled tomatoes. Now in modern conditions it is problematic to carry out salting in barrels, but there are other ways of salting.

    The jars for the preparation must be prepared in advance: washed with soda solution, sterilized in one of the convenient ways: in a water bath, in a microwave oven or in the oven.

We put the wet cans with the neck on the grill in a cold oven, turn on the oven at 150 degrees and keep the cans in the oven for about 15 minutes with a volume of 1 liter.

In ancient times, our grandmothers salted tomatoes without using preservatives such as vinegar and citric acid. Plants, for example, horseradish, acted as preservatives, and also allowed good conditions for long–term storage of blanks - cellars and other underground storerooms, which modern apartment residents do not have. However, there are recipes for pickling tomatoes as barrel-shaped to taste, adapted to modern conditions.
