STEP 1
How to pickle carrots for the winter? Let's prepare the ingredients. It is better to make this preparation in the middle of summer, when the carrots are young, juicy, tasty and rich in nutrients and vitamins. It is better to take small carrots so that you can place them whole in a jar or cut them into large pieces. But large root vegetables are also suitable; they can be cut into circles or squares.
STEP 2
Wash and peel the carrots; if the vegetables are young, then just wipe them with a stiff brush to remove any remaining dirt from the skin, preserving the skin and the vitamins contained in it, cut off the ends and damaged areas.
STEP 3
Place the carrots in a deep bowl, pour boiling water over them and add a little salt. We leave the vegetables in the salty solution for 5-7 minutes, so that the top layer of the root vegetable softens a little, and the existing bacteria on the surface of the carrot are destroyed, and everything harmful comes out. We will prepare jars for seaming in advance. We wash the jars with soda solution and sterilize them using one of the convenient methods: in a water bath, in a microwave oven or in an oven. Wash the lids, boil them, dry them
STEP 4
Pour clean water into the pan, add sugar, salt, bay leaf, peppercorns, cloves (you can use any other spices and herbs if desired and to taste). Place a pan of water on the fire, bring to a boil, stirring with a spoon until the sugar and salt are completely dissolved, boil for 2-3 minutes, pour in the vinegar, let it boil again and turn off the heat.
STEP 5
Place the carrots tightly in sterile jars. Pour in the prepared marinade. Cover the jars with a lid and sterilize them in a water bath for about 15 minutes (0.5 liter jars). Immediately roll up the lids on the jars. Let them cool upside down under a warm blanket at room temperature and store them in a cool place. The carrot preparation is ready. Bon appetit!
