    1. Wash the tomatoes, cut them into quarters, and leave them for 15-20 minutes to release their juice.
    1. Peel the garlic and seed the hot chili pepper (be sure to wear gloves!), then put them through a meat grinder along with the tomatoes (don't add the juice the tomatoes released into the adjika — this keeps it thicker and stops it from separating).
    1. Add the salt and sugar to the mixture, pour in the vinegar, and stir.
    1. Let the adjika rest for 4 hours so the sugar and salt crystals fully dissolve, stirring a couple of times along the way.
    1. After that time, spoon the Ogonyok into sterile jars and screw on sterile lids. Store the preserves in the refrigerator.
  • Wishing you warmth and comfort — and a delicious "Ogonyok" on the table :)
