Canned cucumbers: recipe 1



To make canned cucumbers according to this recipe, we will need:



  • cucumbers (as much as fit in a three-liter jar)

  • greens (parsley, celery, umbrella dill, bay leaves, etc.) - 10-15 g each type

  • horseradish (root or leaves) - 10 g

  • garlic - 3-5 denticles

  • 9% vinegar - 100-150 ml

  • salt - 90 g

  • sugar 35 g


Thoroughly wash the cucumber. Tails can be cut off, and you can leave. If the cucumbers are only from the bed, they can be preserved immediately. And if they were collected more than 5-6 hours ago or bought on the market, before canning you need to stand them for several hours in cold water.



Three-liter jar carefully washing and sterilizing. We wash the greens and put cans on the bottom. Then densely put in a jar of cucumbers (vertically or horizontally - it does not matter), and from above we put an umbrella of dill with seeds.



We boil water in a kettle and gently pour inboiling water in the middle of the can, so that its walls warm evenly. Cover the jar with a pre-boiled lid and leave for a few minutes. We merge the water into a clean pan and pour the cucumbers again with boiling water.



For the third and last pouring we prepare marinade. For this, we pour salt and sugar into the water from the first pour, bring it to a boil, boil for 2-3 minutes and pour in the vinegar.



We merge water from the second filling from the jar, put garlic and horseradish in the jar, pour hot marinade to the top (that it overflowed). If the marinade is too small, top up with boiling water.



We roll up the jars and set them upside down to cool them. You can store canned cucumbers in the refrigerator, basement or pantry.
