    How to make cucumbers with mustard powder for winter? For cooking, type hard, fresh fruits of a small size. Wash them in running water properly to wash off all the dirt.

    Add salt, pepper, sugar, vinegar, vegetable oil, garlic cloves and mustard powder to the cucumbers. Mix everything very well so that all the ingredients are evenly distributed over all the cucumbers. Then cover with a lid and put under pressure for 8 hours.

    Step 6.

    Put the jars in a large, spacious saucepan and pour water so that it does not reach the top of the jars a little. Put the pan on the fire to warm up. Bring the water to a boil and sterilize the jars for 15 minutes.

Do not be afraid of the complexity of the preparation of the whole process. Of course, you will have to tinker, but in winter you will be rewarded with a jar of delicious, fragrant and crispy cucumbers, as a reminder of warm summer days.
After harvesting cucumbers according to this recipe, they will be ready for use in 1-1.5 months. During this time, they will be perfectly marinated and absorb all the flavors of spices and spices. Fresh cucumbers will have run out by then and you will want to try something from the blanks.

Vinegar in recipes, unless otherwise specified by the author, is added by default at a concentration of 9%.
