Salad for winter cucumbers with tomato paste

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   To prepare a salad for the winter from cucumbers with tomato paste, prepare the products based on the proportions given above. You will need medium-sized cucumbers, good quality tomato paste, salt, granulated sugar, odorless vegetable oil and 9% table vinegar.

2. Step 2:

   

   Cucumbers must be thoroughly rinsed, possibly using a medium-hard brush. Next, you need to cut off the tips. Cut the cucumbers themselves into semicircles about 5 mm thick .

3. Step 3:

   

   Place the chopped cucumbers, tomato paste, salt, granulated sugar, vinegar and vegetable oil in a saucepan of suitable size. Leave the products at room temperature for 20, preferably 40 minutes. During this time, cucumber juice will begin to stand out, which is necessary for making a salad.

5. Step 4:

   

   Put the products on the stove and start gradually heating, stirring frequently so that the mass does not stick to the bottom. With heating, the juice will become even more after boiling (be careful, the juice with tomato is sprayed during intense boiling). Boil the cucumbers in the tomato for 10 minutes, do not forget to stir.

6. Step 5:

   

   Arrange the salad in sterile jars. Seal it, turn it over, cover it with a warm blanket or wrap it in a blanket. After complete cooling, cans of cucumber salad with tomato paste for the winter can be sent for storage.
