  • Wash and cut the tomatoes, then run them through a meat grinder fitted with the fine plate. Finely chop the onions, herbs, and garlic cloves. Coarsely grate the beets and carrots. Cut the bell pepper into strips. In a non-reactive (enamel) bowl, combine all of the above. Add the salt and sugar, and pour in the oil and vinegar. Let it stand for 1 1/2 hours to release its juice. Pack into clean, dry jars. Cover them with lids and set them in a pot of water—the water should come up to the shoulders of the jars. Process: pint (0.5-liter) jars for 20 minutes, quart (1-liter) jars for 30 minutes. Seal the lids and turn the jars upside down until completely cool.
