    1. Soak the pearl barley in cold water for 1 hour. 2. Score the tomatoes with an X, drop them into boiling water for a minute, then slip off the skins. Blend the peeled tomatoes into a purée. 3. Peel the onion and cut it into large cubes. 4. Coarsely grate the peeled carrots. 5. Core and seed the bell peppers and dice them. 6. Peel and dice the zucchini the same way—young zucchini don't need peeling. 7. Set a large pot over high heat. Once it warms up a little, pour in the vegetable oil. 8. Add the onion and cook for 5–7 minutes. 9. Add the carrots, stir, and cook for the same amount of time again. 10. Add the bell pepper, zucchini, pearl barley, tomato purée, salt, and sugar. Stir everything together and cover the pot. 11. Simmer over low heat for 15 minutes. Pour in the vinegar, stir, cover again, and cook for another 10 minutes. 12. Spoon the boiling-hot base into sterile jars and seal with sterile metal lids. Wrap them up until completely cool. Your rassolnik base for winter is ready!
