In addition to the quality of fruit and vegetable products, it is necessary to pay attention to the recipe. We will tell you what housewives often forget when pickling cucumbers for the winter.
Those who think that only salt is needed in this matter are mistaken. Experienced cooks insist that sugar is also needed for a tasty preparation.
Correct proportion
The best way to prepare cucumbers is pickling, not preserving with vinegar. And the main thing in this case is the brine. How to calculate the exact ratio of salt and sugar?
So, for 1 liter of water you will need:
- Salt 50 g;

How to salt
Dissolve the main ingredients in water, wash and soak fresh cucumbers in water, trim the ends.
Place all vegetables in the brine so that they are completely submerged in the brine.
Cover the cucumbers with a lid and put them in a cool place. They will be ready in a few days.
