I prepared cabbage and beets for the winter in jars. More precisely: in one jar))). I boiled the beets in advance. Used random amounts of beets, cabbage and garlic to fill the jar. But I made the marinade strictly according to the specified proportions. It took me almost 400 ml of marinade for a liter jar. I sterilized the jar of cabbage 15 minutes after boiling water in the pan. The result was a bright, appetizing, ruby ​​salad. I have no doubt that it will be delicious))). Thanks for the recipe, Zhemchuzhina!
