  1. Step 1:

    Step 1.

    How to pickle cucumbers in Hungarian? Prepare all the necessary ingredients. Wash the vegetables, peel the onions and carrots and rinse.

  2. Step 2:

    Step 2.

    Wash the jars thoroughly with mustard or baking soda in hot water and rinse thoroughly. Cut the carrots into circles, and the onion into slices. Place some of the onions and carrots on the bottom of the sterilized jars. Cans can be sterilized in any way. This can be done over steam, in the oven, or like me in a microwave oven. To do this, pour 2 centimeters high water into jars and sterilize for 4 minutes at a power of 1000 watts. Boil the lids for 10 minutes.

  3. Step 3:

    Step 3.

    Cut off the tips of the clean cucumbers and place them mixed with chopped vegetables to the shoulders of the cans.

  4. Step 4:

    Step 4.

    Pour water into a saucepan and add sugar, stir.

  5. Step 5:

    Step 5.

    Add salt to the pan. It is best to take coarse salt, since fine salt is easy to over-salt, and iodized salt can cause a spontaneous explosion. Although it is already believed that this is not the case, but it is still not worth the risk.

  6. Step 6:

    Step 6.

    Put the pan on medium heat and bring to a boil. Sugar and salt should completely dissolve. Pour vinegar into a saucepan and bring it to a boil again.

  7. Step 7:

    Step 7.

    Fill the jars with cucumbers with marinade all the way to the top.

  8. Step 8:

    Step 8.

    Pour hot water into a deep saucepan and put a clean cloth on the bottom, cover the jars with lids and put them in the pan. The cans should be lowered into the water at 2/3 of the height. Put everything on medium heat and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat a little and after bubbles appear on the walls inside the jar, sterilize for 10 minutes, remove and immediately roll up. Wrap the jars upside down until completely cooled, then store in a cool, dry place.
