Cucumbers and tomatoes are sweet for winter

1. Wash tomatoes and cucumbers under running water. Also wash the greens from dirt and dust, then pour water for 20-30 minutes, drain and dry. Peel the garlic from the husk, remove the skin from the horseradish root as well. Rinse with water. Disassemble the garlic into slices and cut it in half. Also wash the bitter capsicum and cut off the stalk.

2. Prepare containers for preserving vegetables. Thoroughly rinse the cans with baking soda, sterilize in the oven or steamed. Boil the lids.

3. At the bottom of the sterilized jar, put the washed horseradish root, garlic cloves. Add greens. Also cut the bitter pepper in half and put a piece of it on the bottom of the jar.

4. Next, cut off the tip of the cucumbers and place them tightly in a jar. You can also put a few sprigs of celery between the fruits of cucumbers. The stems of tomatoes should be pierced with a toothpick, not to the end - somewhere up to the middle of the fruit. This is necessary so that the tomatoes are well salted and do not burst when pouring them with boiling water. Put tomatoes on top of cucumbers in the same jar. On top of the tomatoes, also put greens and half a capsicum.

5. Boil water and pour it into jars with tomatoes and cucumbers. Then cover the jars with sterile lids and leave in this position for about half an hour.

6. Next, prepare the pickle for vegetables. To do this, pour clean water into a saucepan, boil it and add salt and sugar. Mix everything well until the salt and sugar are completely dissolved in water.

7. After the cucumbers and tomatoes have stood in boiling water, it is necessary to drain the water from the jar into the sink - it will no longer be needed. And again pour the vegetables with the cooked hot brine. Leave the vegetables in the brine for 15 minutes, previously covered with a clean lid.

8. Next, drain the brine from tomatoes and cucumbers back into the pan and add some more clean water. Put the pan on the stove to prepare the marinade. Put a mixture of peppers in a saucepan. Just before boiling, pour apple cider vinegar into a saucepan. The marinade is ready. Pour boiling marinade over cucumbers and tomatoes and immediately roll up the jars.

Successful preparations!
