Sorrel in jars without sterilization

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 25 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make sorrel in jars for the winter without sterilization? Prepare all the necessary ingredients. The sorrel must be freshly picked, not limp or spoiled.

2. STEP 2

   

   Sort through the sorrel. Remove stems, leaves eaten by insects, and remove any grass that may have gotten in with the sorrel. Carefully inspect the backs of the leaves. Insects love to lay eggs there, so be careful. Wash the leaves thoroughly in several waters so that sand and soil do not get in with the leaves.

3. STEP 3

   

   Wash small jars with baking soda and sterilize using any method convenient for you. I usually use the microwave. I pour some water into the jars and place them on the turntable in the microwaves and heat them for 3 minutes at the highest speed. Just make sure that the water does not boil away during sterilization. Remove the jars and drain the water. Boil the iron lids in water for 5 minutes. Dip the nylon ones into boiling water for 20-30 seconds.

4. STEP 4

   

   Cut the washed sorrel and fill the jars tightly with it to the very top.

5. STEP 5

   

   Add salt to cold water and stir until completely dissolved. Use coarse and non-iodized salt.

6. STEP 6

   

   Pour vinegar into the water and stir again.

7. STEP 7

   

   Fill the jars with the resulting solution to the very top. Take a clean knife and pierce the sorrel so that the air comes out of the jars. Add more saline solution if necessary.

8. STEP 8

   

   Roll up the jars with lids and leave at room temperature for two days.

9. STEP 9

   

   Then put the jars in a cool place. This could be a refrigerator or a cellar for storing canned goods. If the lids on your jars are swollen, throw away the contents without regret, otherwise you may be poisoned.

10. STEP 10

    

    Before using the product, drain the liquid from the jar. Just keep in mind that sorrel is already salted, so add salt to your soup or other dish to taste after cooking. Bon appetit!

Sorrel in jars for the winter without sterilization will remind you of spring during the cold season! I make sorrel in jars for the winter as an alternative to freezing. At the same time, the taste of sorrel remains excellent. I add it to soups and it’s very tasty, aromatic and spring-like. The workpiece is stored well and for a long time, but in a refrigerator or cellar. Thank you very much for the recipe!
