Tomatoes with dill and horseradish in 3-liter cans for winter

Tomatoes for rolling up for the winter are best chosen elastic, without any external damage and damaged areas. Overripe specimens may burst during the seaming process. In addition, it is desirable that the tomatoes are of the same variety and approximately the same size. In this case, they will be equally marinated and will have a beautiful appearance.

Tomatoes should be thoroughly rinsed under cold water and wiped with paper towels. Then take a toothpick and make a puncture at each base of the peduncle - this is necessary so that the tomatoes are evenly salted and do not burst when pouring them with hot brine.

Carrots are washed, cleaned, cut into circles or small pieces. Peel the onion, rinse and cut into the same pieces as carrots.

Wash the dill umbrellas and horseradish leaves, then pour boiling water for a couple of minutes and drain the water. Dry it.

Next, you need to prepare the jar for rolling. Rinse it well with detergent and baking soda. Both inside and outside. It is most convenient to sterilize large jars in the oven. We also do not forget that the lids must also be sterile. The lid should be boiled separately in water for 3-4 minutes.

After the jar cools down a little, you can put vegetables in it. At the bottom of the jar, put pieces of onion and carrot, as well as spices in the form of peppers, cloves, small bay leaves, mustard seeds. Then carefully lay the tomatoes as close to each other as possible, but without crumpling them. Put horseradish leaves and dill umbrellas on top of the jar.

Separately, pour clean water into a saucepan and bring it to a boil. Add salt and sugar. Boil everything together for a couple of minutes so that the crystals completely dissolve, interfering in the process. At the end of cooking, add table 9% vinegar and remove the pan from the heat.

Pour the tomatoes in a jar with the resulting brine and immediately roll up.

Store cans of tomatoes in a dark, cool place for a year.

Successful preparations!
