I love lecho very much, I spent a long time looking for a recipe on the Internet. I chose this one, I liked the ratio of products, but I added carrots (0.5 kg) and half a kilo less pepper. It turned out perfect! Carrots add even more sweetness and flavor. It’s very convenient to use the vinegar calculator; I easily calculated the amount of vinegar essence (mine is 70 percent, but the recipe calls for 9).
