    For lovers pickled vegetables this recipe will do. Can do cucumbers, and you can zucchini or patissons. Cucumbers according to this recipe, I immediately warn you, they turn out vigorous, not sweetish, but we like it.

    So,

    Pickled cucumbers (zucchini)

    You will need:

    for 1 liter jar:

    1 tsp salt;

    1 tsp Sahara;

    50 gr of vinegar;

    4-5 garlic cloves;

    5 pieces of black (and preferably allspice) peppercorns;

    Bay leaf;

    1 dry dill umbrella;

    cucumbers;

    water;

    jar and iron lid.

    We select strong small sizes cucumbers and wash thoroughly with a brush.

    Jars and lids mine in hot water mustard or baking soda. If you are sure that you will thoroughly wash and rinse detergent, then it is possible. But if this procedure is carried out somehow, then later the bank may “explode”.

    So, we sterilize the washed jars for 5-10 minutes over boiling water on a special ring, and boil the lids in a separate bowl for 5-7 minutes and leave them in this water and take them out as needed.

    Garlic clean, wash and cut each clove in half. If the garlic is small, then you can not cut it.

    We cut off the “butts” of cucumbers on both sides - the accumulator of harmful substances.

    We take a clean sterilized jar, put it on the bottom dill umbel, garlic, peppercorns, bay leaf and lay the cucumbers standing in the first row, and the second - lying down. It would be great if you picked up cucumbers of such a size that both rows in the jar turned out to be standing. There is such a special variety, but if not, then it does not matter.

    So, the spices were laid, the cucumbers too, now we fall asleep salt and sugar . We put clean water in a saucepan to boil (I use an electric kettle - it's more convenient). Pour boiling water into a jar of cucumbers to the top (be sure to pour on a spoon and put on a wooden board so that the jar does not burst), cover iron lid and put the jar in a pot of water. The water level should be such that it reaches the "neck" of a 1 liter jar. And after the water boils, boil for 15 - 20 minutes.

    Then carefully pull out the jar, it is advisable to use special tongs, pour vinegar and twist with a seaming machine.

    We spread a blanket on the floor, turn the jars upside down, put them on a blanket and cover them with the second one on top. We carefully wrap it on all sides and leave it like that for 6-8 hours. Then we take it to a cool place and look forward to winter. All!

    Tips:

    If there are no dill umbrellas, then you can use fresh dill, just rinse it thoroughly in running water and dry it a little on a towel;

    For a sharp taste, you can add a circle of bitter pepper;

    If you do not like "vinegar" cucumbers, then add only 30 grams of vinegar;

    For convenience, it is better to make several jars at the same time, for example 4, depending on the pot in which you will boil the jars;

    To fill 4 1 liter jars, 1.5 - 1.7 liters of boiling water is enough;

    It is better to put a small towel at the bottom of the pan in which you boil the jars, then the likelihood that the jars will burst will decrease.
