Pickled cucumbers with zucchini for winter

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   Prepare everything you need for rolling vegetables – sterilize liter cans in a convenient way for you – in the oven, microwave oven or holding over steam, boil the iron lids for 2-3 minutes, wash the vegetables thoroughly. For one liter jar, you will need 3 cucumbers and 1 zucchini. Prepare the vegetables as follows: cut cucumbers and zucchini from both sides, then cut the zucchini along the length of the cucumber and cut it into 4 parts

2. Step 2:

   

   Cut the rest into rings, cut the carrots into thin rings, red or yellow bell pepper into strips, peel the garlic. In sterilized jars, we put sprigs of parsley and dill, several rings of carrots, strips of bell pepper and a clove of garlic. We put zucchini and cucumbers vertically, alternating them. 3 cucumbers and 3 vertical parts of zucchini and 1 fourth part of zucchini become vertically in the jar, stirred in the middle.

3. Step 3:

   

   Since the jar is not fully filled, we fill it with sliced zucchini and, if there are small cucumbers. We also put carrots, pepper and garlic on top. So we fill all the jars. Fill the jars with vegetables with boiling water, close them with iron lids and leave for 15 minutes.

5. Step 4:

   

   Preparing the marinade (I increased the ingredients for making the marinade by 2 times): add salt and sugar to the water and put it on the stove when the marinade boils for 3 minutes, pour in the vinegar and boil for another 1 minute. Drain the water from the cans, add all the spices and pour boiling marinade. Immediately roll up, turn upside down and leave to cool completely. The cooled billet is taken out to the cellar or stored in the pantry.
