These are the subtleties of canning salads that may come in handy in your work. To prepare the dishes (jars), wash them thoroughly with baking soda. Then rinse thoroughly. It is better to place jars for sterilization in the oven. They are placed in a cold oven on a baking sheet. Then you need to turn on the oven for 15 minutes at a temperature of 100 degrees. Sterilization of jars is complete.
The lids for the jars also need to be prepared. We take out the rubber rings for them, wash the lids and pour boiling water over them along with the rubber bands. All. At this point, your canning utensils are ready for use.
A great way to preserve salads is in the oven rather than in water. The advice is completely sincere. In water, in large pots, jars always tend to burst, the temperature is difficult to predict, and removing jars from boiling water is even more difficult. You can also list a lot of disadvantages of this method of sterilizing jars.
Either way, it’s the oven. Place the salad in prepared jars, cover with lids without rubber bands, place on a baking sheet at a short distance between each other, turn on the oven to a precise temperature of 100-120 degrees. Sterilization time is 20 minutes. That's all! We take out the baking sheet along with the jars. Roll up the lids with rubber bands. Next, as you are used to doing - we cool it, for example, “under a fur coat” with the lids down and transfer it to the cellar or pantry the next day.

Take two parts of cucumbers and tomatoes, one part of the remaining vegetables. You will also need parsley (greens), celery (root), dill (umbels), a couple of bay leaves, black peppercorns, water, and a lot of citric acid.
We talk about the amount of acid and other volumes per three-liter jar. At its bottom you need to put parsley, celery, dill, bay leaf, 4-5 peppercorns. Now we place the cucumbers at the very bottom, above them the squash, above the squash the tomatoes, between the rows of which place parsley and dill.
Now let's prepare the marinade. Dissolve 4 tablespoons of citric acid in 1.3 liters of water. Bring to a boil, cool until just hot. Fill the vegetables, but not to the top, the main thing is that they are covered in the jar. Pasteurize the jars in a convenient way (in water or in the oven) for 20-25 minutes. Then we roll them up and cool them.
