Pickled asparagus

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 20 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make pickled asparagus for the winter at home? Prepare all the necessary ingredients. You can learn useful tips and subtleties of making preparations for the winter by reading an article on this topic. There is a link at the end of this recipe.

2. STEP 2

   

   If you have thin, very young asparagus stalks, then you don’t need to do anything additional with them. If you have more mature shoots, then cut off the thick, hard stems at the base of the plant. Peel the garlic, we will need it a little later.

3. STEP 3

   

   Cut the stems so that they fit into the jar. I rolled up small jars, so I divided each stem into two, and some into three parts. Pour boiling water over the asparagus for a minute or a little less (depending on the thickness of the plant), then drain the water.

4. STEP 4

   

   How to make a marinade? Pour water into a saucepan, add peppercorns, vinegar, salt and sugar. Place the marinade over high heat and bring almost to a boil (as soon as the first bubbles appear, remove the pan immediately from the heat; you should not boil the vinegar for a long time).

5. STEP 5

   

   Wash the jars well in running water and soda. Place a clove of garlic and a teaspoon of grainy mustard at the bottom of each jar.

6. STEP 6

   

   Place asparagus sprouts in jars with “umbrellas” on top, as in the photo.

7. STEP 7

   

   Pour the marinade over the preparation and place the open jars in a saucepan with hot water, the bottom of which has been covered with a towel, over high heat. The water should not reach the neck of the jars a little (1.5-2 cm). Place the lids in water. Bring the water to a boil, reduce the heat slightly and sterilize the workpiece with lids for about 10-15 minutes. Then remove the lids with a fork (be careful not to burn yourself!) and cover the jars with them, leave for another two to three minutes.

8. STEP 8

   

   Remove the dough from the water using a kitchen towel and screw the lids on tightly. Turn the container upside down, wrap it in a warm blanket and leave until it cools completely.

9. STEP 9

   

   Place the finished jars of pickled green asparagus in a cool, dark place for storage, this could be a cellar or refrigerator. In this way, the product can be stored for several months.
