Step-by-step cooking
Step 1:
How to close tomatoes and peppers through a meat grinder? Prepare all the necessary products. Of course, such a preparation should be prepared in the most vegetable season, so tomatoes and peppers need fresh, ground.
Step 2:
Wash tomatoes and peppers, remove the stalks, and remove the seeds from the pepper.
Step 3:
Put the vegetables through the meat grinder.
Step 4:
Peel the onion, chop it with a blender. I recommend using a blender for chopping onions, not a meat grinder - so the onion will not be watery, and the finished dish will have a more homogeneous texture with small onion pieces.
Step 5:
Combine everything in a saucepan with a thick bottom - in such a dish, our workpiece will not burn during cooking.
Step 6:
Add sugar.
Step 7:
Add salt.
Step 8:
Put on a small fire and cook for 40 minutes, stirring constantly.
Step 9:
Cooking time can be increased by focusing on the desired thickness of the workpiece. After all, tomatoes can be both more and less watery, so make sure that the finished dish would not be too sticky.
Step 10:
Sterilize the jars in any convenient way. I put cans of water in the microwave for 5-7 minutes. But you can sterilize them in the oven at 100 degrees for 15 minutes. Or put a spoon in each jar so that the jar does not burst, pour boiling water and leave for 5 minutes. Then drain the water. Or just hold the cans on the ferry. Choose the method of sterilization that is convenient for you. Boil the lids for 5 minutes.
Step 11:
Spread the tomato-pepper mass hot into jars and close tightly with lids or roll up. Sterilization is not required, such a blank is stored in a cool place.
Step 12:
Bon appetit!
Remember that spices such as salt, sugar, as well as vinegar and its substitutes are used in recipes for winter preparations not only for taste, but primarily as preservatives. Therefore, in no case should you reduce the concentration of salt and sugar, and also replace vinegar (essence) with a weaker concentration than indicated in the recipe, otherwise vinegar (salt / sugar) will not show their preservative properties and the workpiece will be spoiled.
So that the jam does not sour and the jar of cucumbers does not explode, read the basic rules, secrets and life hacks about preparations for the winter.
