Cucumbers are tasty vegetables that are great for pickling or salting for the winter.
The procedure may seem complicated, but it is worth the effort.
Still, in the end you can get a tasty and aromatic snack that will perfectly complement any lunch or even decorate a festive table.
But during the cooking process, you can notice that experienced housewives put cherry leaves in the jars.
This is necessary to give the product elasticity, strength and a more interesting aroma.
You can safely throw from 3 to 10 leaves into a 3-liter jar.
You can also use blackcurrant leaves, which also affect the aroma and taste of cucumbers.
This addition will also make the vegetables crispier.
But first, the leaves need to be examined to make sure there are no signs of disease or pests. They also need to be rinsed under running water.
