Pelustka cabbage with beetroot

Delicious crispy cabbage straight to your table! Another option for preparing cabbage is a culinary recipe from Georgian cuisine, which I will now describe to you. Such cabbage with beets for the winter (or cabbage with beets) can be rolled up in jars or simply left in some large container placed in a cold place. The food is ideal as a snack, preparing salads (you can come up with them yourself) and various dishes (for example, borscht).

We love pickled cabbage very much, so when I came across a loose head of cabbage in the store, I immediately started looking for a suitable recipe on the website. I decided to make pelyuska cabbage with beetroot for the winter. I didn’t roll it up, I just prepared it in a five-liter bucket. I cut the cabbage and beets with a curly knife, and chopped the beets into wide cubes to make the color more intense. I cut fresh garlic into petals and a sharp, appetizing aroma immediately appeared! I poured the cooled brine over the vegetables and kept them on the table for a couple of hours. I diluted two liters of brine to make sure there was enough. Then I placed a plate on top and closed the lid. After just two days, the cabbage was sufficiently salted and became crispy and tasty. And after four days, not only did the taste and crunch improve, but the color of the cabbage became very beautiful. The brine turned out to be successful, just the right amount of salt and sugar.

You judged correctly, for yourself first of all! And with homemade vegetable oil, it’s so good! Can you buy your own pressed oil there?
