The preparation prepared according to the recipe from this article will facilitate and speed up the preparation of borscht, salads and other appetizers, where the main ingredient is boiled beetroot.
Yulia Arkhipova , an expert of the online publication BelNovosti, a chef, told us how to prepare beets for the winter so that you don’t have to waste time on cooking, cutting and grating them.
To do this you will need:
- 1 kg beetroot;
- 1 tablespoon salt;
- 1 l of water;
- 3 g citric acid.
First, boil the vegetables for 20-25 minutes – until half-cooked – then cool them and grate.
If you prefer chopped beets, you can shred them with a knife.
After this, place the root vegetables in small, pre-sterilized jars and you can begin preparing the marinade.
To do this, you will need to pour water into a saucepan, add salt and lemon juice and let it boil for a minute.
The hot marinade should be poured into the jars so that the liquid completely covers the beets.
All that remains is to roll up, turn over and wrap the blanks.
Earlier we told you what to make from tomatoes instead of salad.
