1. Step 1:

   

   Prepare the ingredients according to the list. We clean the white cabbage from the upper dry and dirty leaves, cut the head, cut out the stalk, cut the cabbage into large pieces, of such a size that they pass through the neck into the jar.

2. Step 2:

   

   Carrots are washed, cleaned and cut into circles, if the vegetable is large, if the carrot is small, then it can be cut into several parts.

   Bulgarian pepper is washed, cut out the peduncle with the seed pod. It is better to take a multicolored Bulgarian pepper, the billet in the jar will turn out colorful and bright. The flesh of the peppers is cut into circles or wide strips, as you like.
