Cucumber caviar for the winter: recipes you will lick your fingers with photos and videos

Cucumber caviar for the winter saves my harvest every summer. I grow cucumbers in a greenhouse, when they start to sing in July, we simply do not have time to eat them. We pickle small cucumbers, but there will always be “harmful” cucumbers that successfully hide in the foliage, so they grow to huge sizes. It is from these overgrowths that I usually cook caviar from cucumbers for the winter, you will lick all the recipes.

The easiest cucumber caviar recipe

I only take overripe cucumbers. I make this caviar of the most delicate consistency, so I clean the skin. Naturally, I wash the cucumbers well before this. I cut them into pieces along with the seeds. Weight of prepared cucumbers 500 g.

I take 1 large carrot and 1 onion. First, I cut the onion into cubes and send it to stew in a saucepan (stewpan) with a thick bottom. At the bottom I pour out part of the vegetable oil, in total it will need 50 ml. While the onion is stewing, peel, grate the carrot and send it to the onion.

To make the vegetables release juice faster, add s alt. You only need 15 g of s alt. We also add a tablespoon of sugar and the same amount of tomato paste. If desired, the portion of pasta can be doubled, it will not be worse. You won't spoil the caviar with pasta. After 5 minutes, we send cucumber slices to the vegetables, pour out the remaining oil, cook the vegetables for 20 minutes

As I already noted, this caviar should have the most delicate texture, so I take an immersion blender and grind the mixture into a smooth puree. I fill it with vinegar (30 ml), stew for 5 minutes, pour it into jars. Agree, this is a very simple recipe.
