1. For canning, select fresh green, just picked cucumbers of small size and uniform elongated shape. Pour the selected cucumbers with cold water for several hours. F-1
2. In the meantime, we prepare the jars, rinse them thoroughly, and do not need to sterilize. We wash all the spices, that is, dill, parsley, horseradish leaves, cherry leaves, black currant leaves, hot peppers, bay leaves, peel the garlic (if desired, cut large slices in half).
3.Now we are preparing for the preparation of tomato juice. We wash the tomatoes, divide them into parts and pass through a meat grinder, pour the prepared juice into a saucepan and put on a low heat, let it simmer (I usually take fleshy tomatoes to make the juice thick, but this is optional).
All this preparation will take some time. And just this time will be enough for cucumbers that settle in water. Why keep cucumbers in water for pickling for the winter, you ask? And in order for them to be saturated with moisture, this will not lead to fermentation of already rolled cucumbers in tomato juice.
Then, after pulling them out of the water, rinse thoroughly with running, cold water.
4. At the bottom of the jar we put 1/3 of the spices (that is, two or three sprigs of dill and parsley, 2-3 peas of black pepper, 1 allspice, chopped horseradish leaves into large pieces, throw some of them on the bottom of the jar, one currant leaf, bay leaf , one cherry leaf, chopped garlic, two or three slices of chopped chilli pepper, add it as desired, who loves what kind of spiciness), and then fill the jar with cucumbers up to half the jar, I put all the cucumbers standing, tightly to each other, cut off the butts, then again the aforementioned layer of all the spices, then again orugtsy, and so on until the jar is full. Spices in the amount in which I indicated, it is better to put only three layers in jars so that there is no overload with spices.
5. Then fill the cucumbers with boiling water, this should be done very slowly, in small portions, so that the jar does not burst, and to warm the bottom and walls of the jar, cover it with a lid and leave for 10 minutes.
At this time, add salt and sugar to the tomato juice to taste, I add 1 tablespoon of salt and 3 tablespoons of sugar to 1 liter of juice, let it boil slowly.
6. Drain the water from the cucumbers and put it on the fire again, and after boiling, pour the cucumbers again and leave for 10 minutes, covering with a lid. We drain the water very carefully so as not to burn yourself. Now the most important thing is that our preservation does not ferment, we add 1 aspirin tablet to a liter can of preservation, i.e. acetylsalicylic acid (it needs to be crushed), which, in addition to everything, makes our pickled cucumbers in tomato juice crispy. And one hundred percent preserves your preservation, without any sterilization. There will be no smell and taste from one tablet, trust me.
If you don't want to use aspirin tablets, you can add half a teaspoon of citric acid to 1 liter of preservation.
7. Then we fill the cucumbers with tomato juice, in which the sugar and salt have already dissolved. I advise you to make tomato juice yourself, you will be confident in the naturalness of your preservation.
We roll jars of pickled cucumbers in tomato juice for the winter. Turn it upside down and let it cool. To cool them down more slowly, we wrap them with a blanket and leave them overnight. Store jars in a cool place (pantry, basement).
