Remove tops from root vegetables. Rinse all vegetables thoroughly under running water.
Peel the beets and carrots. Grate using a coarse or medium grater, or for a more aesthetically pleasing look, use a Korean grater. This will allow you to get smooth and textured “noodles”.
Pour all the vegetable oil into a fairly large saucepan at once, heat it and add the grated vegetables to the bowl. Stir and fry over low heat.
At this time, peel the onion. Remove the “entrails” from the pepper and remove the skin from the tomato. In order for the peel to come off well, the tomatoes must be placed in boiling water for a couple of minutes, after making a crosswise cut.
Cut the onions, tomatoes and peppers into cubes and add to the vegetables in a saucepan.
Stir again, add granulated sugar, salt and add vinegar.
Cover with a lid and simmer for about 60 minutes.
Place the prepared vegetable mixture into sterilized jars and secure with iron lids. Turn upside down, insulate and leave until completely cool. This type of sealing has a shelf life of about a year.

Ingredients:
The first thing to do is wash and peel the vegetables, being careful not to damage or remove the skin. After this, boil the root vegetables until tender. By the way, today they often boil vegetables in the microwave, but this option will not work for us, since the decoction from the juice is also useful in preparing zakoma.
Place the cooked beets in cold water and leave there for 20-30 minutes. Now we begin to prepare the marinade, for which we need to use gauze. Strain the broth through a cloth and add 3 tablespoons of sugar and a spoonful of salt to the mixture for each liter of marinade. To add sourness to the broth, add a little citric acid, but this is at your discretion.
Now you can start processing the beets: carefully remove the skin (after the root vegetables have been in cold water, this can be done much easier) and put them in pre-sterilized jars. Beets can be cut into pieces or placed whole in jars. We roll up the jars and place them in a container with water, bring to a boil and wait for half an hour - this is necessary for sterilization. All is ready! As you can see, this recipe for canned beets for the winter is simple and quick to prepare! Now you can move on to other recipes that are no less tasty and healthy.

All vegetables for preparing red beets for the winter must be thoroughly washed, peeled, chopped peppers and onions and fried for 10 minutes. After this, grate the beets and twist the tomatoes, or, if you have a blender, chop them in it. Don't forget to add hot peppers along with the root vegetables. Simmer the prepared mixture of beets and hot peppers for 60 minutes, stirring several times. After an hour, add onion, pepper, salt and keep in the pan for about 10 minutes. That’s it, the beets canned for the winter, the recipe for which is also not difficult, is ready! All that's left to do is just roll the vegetables into the jars!
Borscht is the most popular dish in Russian cuisine. The main difficulty in preparing the first course is that fresh root vegetables have to be cooked for a very long time - up to several hours. It is much easier and faster to prepare from beet preparations for borscht already made with your own hands. To prepare the borscht mixture we will need:
The cooking process is quite simple: boil the root vegetables until tender, cool in water and peel without removing them from the liquid. After this, cut the beets into small slices and place them in sterilized jars. It is best to take a container with a volume of 0.5 liters. Also, do not forget about preparing the marinade - boil water (450 ml) along with spices, add salt, sugar and vinegar and bring to a boil again.
As soon as the marinade has cooled, you can pour it into the beets in the jars, closing the lid tightly. The process of canning beets with this recipe is also simple because you do not need to sterilize the jars.
The only negative is that you only need to store it in the refrigerator or basement or any other cool place so that the borscht mixture does not turn sour.
We told you how to prepare beets for borscht for the winter, but that’s not all that can be made from such a healthy vegetable. Thus, a very popular dish is vegetable caviar, which can be served without hesitation on the table for any holiday.

After this, put the mixture in a saucepan, preheating the oil in it, and simmer for about 10 minutes, then add garlic to the mass and simmer again, but for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Season the mixture to taste with salt and spices and leave on the fire for another 10 minutes. We put the hot dish into jars, roll them up and put them upside down until they cool down.

To quickly prepare beetroot soup, make healthy preparations for the winter! Very simple and incredibly useful - dressing for beetroot.
Soup seasoning, beetroot soup for the winter, a recipe with a photo of which I offer, this is a delicious set of canned vegetables for making borscht or soup. Boil the beets in their skins; they need to be added to the rest of the already boiled ingredients, this way the bright beet color will be better preserved. It will take 2 hours to prepare, from the above ingredients you will get 1 liter.
The basis of soup dressing for the winter is sautéing of grated carrots, garlic and finely chopped onions. In a deep heat-resistant bowl with a thick bottom, heat up all the olive oil (it can be replaced with any odorless vegetable oil), add vegetables, cook for 10 minutes.
Place ripe red tomatoes in boiling water for 15 seconds, then peel off the skin and grate the tomatoes on a coarse grater. Instead of a grater, you can use a blender. Add the tomato puree to the sauté and simmer over medium heat for 10 minutes.
Now add chopped chili pepper and ground red pepper. Be sure to taste the chili; if it is very hot, then half a pod is enough.
Boil the beets in their skins until tender (40 minutes - 1 hour), peel them, grate them on a fine grater, and add them to the frying pan.
Following the beets, place the sweet bell pepper, cut into large strips and seeded.
Add coarse salt and granulated sugar, simmer the vegetable mixture for 5-6 minutes.
Place the prepared hot beetroot soup into warm, sterilized jars and compact well so that there are no air pockets left. Pour a layer of olive oil on top; it will additionally preserve the seasoning for the winter and will not allow a crust to form on the surface.
Close the jars tightly, sterilize at a temperature of 95 degrees for 7-8 minutes (time indicated for 500 g jars).
We store the workpieces in a dark and dry place, for example, in a cellar. Shelf life is several months at temperatures from +2 to + 7 degrees.
Prepare a dressing for beetroot and in winter you will free yourself from the hassle. Cook the aromatic broth, add potatoes and cabbage, as well as a jar of the preparation in the form of a dressing and that’s it, the soup is ready. And what a aroma that will flow through the kitchen! And what a color! With a little effort now, you will be freed from extra effort in the winter. The main thing is that there is no need to fry, peel vegetables, chop them, or dirty a lot of dishes. In winter, the days are already shorter, so you don’t want to spend a lot of time in the kitchen, but it won’t hurt anyone to warm up with aromatic borscht. Use a simple homemade recipe for aromatic preparations for borscht and beetroot soup now, so that later you can enjoy delicious dishes without spending a lot of effort.
The weight of the ingredients is indicated in the recipe in already purified form, be sure to take this into account. Prepare all vegetables, wash and peel them thoroughly.
Chop the tomatoes; you can put them through a meat grinder or blender.
Grate the carrots and beets on a coarse grater. I use red beets; they give the borscht a beautiful color and a sweet taste.
Finely chop the onion and garlic. These vegetables can also be chopped in a blender, then there will be no tears.
Cut the bell pepper into small strips, and chop the greens (parsley or dill). Do not use hard green stems.
In a large bowl, mix all the vegetables, add salt, sugar, vinegar and vegetable oil. Leave it for 1-1.5 hours so that the vegetables release their juice.
Then put the borscht dressing into dry, sterilized jars (I got 12 of them), preferably half a liter, and cover with sterilized lids.
Place the dressing in a pan of water for sterilization, count 20 minutes from the moment of boiling and roll up. One such jar is suitable for preparing beetroot soup for a 3-4 liter pan.
Before adding salt to the beetroot soup, be sure to taste it, as the dressing is already salty.
Let's start preparing beetroot for the winter at home by preparing the beets. Wash the beets, peel them from the top layer and tails, and then grate the bright vegetable on a grater with small holes.
Next, use a meat grinder to chop the tomatoes, but first prepare them for this. First rinse the tomatoes in water, and then cut them into large pieces. Only after this can the tomatoes be passed through a meat grinder.
Combine the prepared beets and tomatoes in one common deep container, then add vegetable oil to them. Next, move the vegetables to medium heat, and after boiling, boil the vegetable mass for one hour and thirty minutes.
After the specified time has passed, add chopped hot pepper and garlic cloves passed through a press to the boiling preparation. Following these ingredients, add granulated sugar and salt to the mixture. Mix all ingredients thoroughly and boil for about half an hour.
After thirty minutes, remove the vegetable preparation from the stove and pour it into sterilized jars, and then seal them hermetically. While the workpieces are hot, they should always be turned upside down under a warm blanket. Afterwards, the cooled jars can be moved to any place for storing winter supplies. The universal beetroot maker is ready for the winter!
Rinse all the vegetables and herbs listed in the recipe under running water. Peel beets, carrots and onions. Remove the first leaves from the cabbage.
Shred the cabbage into thin strips. More than once in my recipes I have stated that if you have a food processor with a shredder, then the work will be much faster. If you don’t have one, then your assistant will be a knife.
Beets and carrots are chopped on a grater with large serrated blades. Cut the onion into cubes.
We cut the tomatoes into cubes; they may not be too small in size; later everything will be stewed. It is advisable to chop the parsley finely.
Place all the vegetables into a deep saucepan at the same time, except parsley, add it 15 minutes before the end. Sprinkle with salt and pour in oil, place the pan on the stove and simmer for 40 minutes.
In the middle of stewing, add sugar, and a couple of minutes before cooking, add vinegar, turn off. The result is a vegetable mass of a pleasant red hue with an attractive aroma.
When hot, place into sterilized jars, wrap and let cool completely.
Beetroot dressing prepared for the winter according to this recipe is an excellent preparation that you will definitely like. When cooking borscht, this dressing simply needs to be added at the end of cooking. This preparation is delicious on its own as an appetizer. I prepared the dressing in a slow cooker - very convenient! You can, of course, cook in a saucepan. From this amount of products you will get 2 jars of 750 grams each.
Pour vegetable oil, water and a third of vinegar into the bowl. Mix everything carefully, set the multicooker program to “Stewing” for 20 minutes, close the lid. If you cook in a saucepan, also simmer the vegetables for 20 minutes over low heat, covering with a lid, always stirring. Then add the tomatoes twisted in a meat grinder, salt, sugar, remaining vinegar, allspice and bay leaves to the vegetables, mix.
Turn over jars of very tasty, aromatic, richly colored beetroot dressing prepared for the winter and wrap until completely cool. This preparation is stored at room temperature.
Sort through the vegetables for harvesting, select only ripe, strong, whole, without stains or damage. Rinse them and clean them.
The onion should be cut into small cubes. Another form of cutting is possible, which is familiar to you.
Take white cabbage. This recipe for borscht dressing for the winter uses Savoy cabbage - it is a little more tender and cooks a little faster. Chop the cabbage into thin strips.
Cut the tomatoes into wedges and place in a food processor to form a tomato.
Grind the tomatoes to a smooth puree.
Instead of water and tomato puree, you can use natural tomato juice. If the tomatoes are homemade, from the garden, then it is better to add a little less sugar - such tomatoes are usually sweetish.
Peel the sweet peppers and remove the stem. Cut into arbitrary small pieces.
Peel the beets and carrots and grate them on a coarse grater. You can also cut the vegetables into cubes, but in this case you will need to increase the simmering time.
Place all the chopped vegetables in a saucepan or saucepan and stir with a spatula. Simmer over low heat for 20 minutes, stirring.
After 20 minutes, add salt, sugar and vegetable oil, mix again. Simmer for another 20 minutes.
Add vinegar, stir and after 2 minutes remove vegetables from heat.
Jars for preserving vegetables must be sterile, as are the lids. Place vegetables in jars.
Screw the jars as tightly as possible with sterile lids or roll them up. Turn over and wrap up.
When the borscht dressing has cooled, move it to a cool, dark place for further storage.
Here is a set of products for preparing a dressing for the winter: beets, carrots, onions, sweet peppers, tomatoes, garlic, vegetable oil, granulated sugar, table salt, 9% table vinegar and citric acid. A little more detail: pepper will suit any color, we take any refined oil (I used sunflower), that is, odorless, fresh garlic can be replaced with dried (a tablespoon, I think, is enough), we replace table vinegar with wine or apple vinegar in equal proportions, if % same.
In fact, there is nothing difficult in preparing the dressing: the most labor-intensive part is peeling and chopping the vegetables. Of course, you can choose any convenient grinding method, but I highly recommend doing it as I write below. Believe me, borscht in which the beets are cut into thin slices is many times tastier than the one in which the vegetables are chopped on a coarse grater. Don’t be lazy, maybe you’ll thank me later. So, the most convenient way is to peel all the vegetables and then weigh them - I indicate the mass in the ingredients in exactly this form. We clean beets, carrots and onions. Remove the seeds and inner white veins from the peppers. Just wash the tomatoes and leave them alone for now.
To make the process go faster, I advise you to simultaneously cook vegetables in two containers at once. I have a large and deep frying pan (26 centimeters in diameter), as well as a thick-walled saucepan (4 liters in volume). If you use one vessel, it will take more time. So, we will fry all the vegetables, separately. Pour 100 milliliters of vegetable oil into a frying pan, place it on the stove over medium heat and let it heat up. Meanwhile, chop the peeled onion into small cubes. Place in hot oil and fry, stirring occasionally, until soft, translucent, and then beautifully browned and pleasantly aroma.
While the onion is frying, chop the bell pepper. I cut it into small cubes, and if you want, you can cut it into cubes. Pour the remaining 100 milliliters of vegetable oil into the pan, heat it and fry the pepper. Don't forget to stir so it doesn't burn.
The onion is ready - it has become transparent, soft and slightly browned. Using a slotted spoon, transfer it to a separate container so that as much oil as possible remains in the pan - we will also fry the carrots in it.
Following the onion, the pepper arrived. You will hear by the smell when it is ready, becomes soft, and slightly browned. We also remove it from the pan with a slotted spoon and transfer it to the onion. There will be quite a lot of oil left in the pan - we will fry the beets in it.
While the onions and peppers were cooking, we quickly chopped the peeled carrots - not just on a coarse grater, but cut them into thin strips. Of course, if this is difficult for you, you don’t have to do this - just use a grater. But personally, I like carrots in this dressing (and then in borscht) in the form of thin straws. Place the vegetables in a frying pan and fry over medium heat until soft and browned. Stir so it doesn't burn.
And finally, our main character is beets! Not everything is simple with her either - you can’t get by with a grater. We will cut the beets into thin cubes. For a long time? Well, yes, not very fast, but it’s necessary, take my word for it. By the way, if you are still too lazy to cut vegetables the way I advise, think about the fact that this is not only a tedious and tedious task, but also excellent practice in cutting food. Can you boast that your knife skills are 5+? Well, go ahead and improve your skills. Place the beetroot sticks in a saucepan (there is still enough oil from the pepper) and fry over fairly high heat for about 10-15 minutes.
Beets take the longest to cook, but, again, young ones soften much faster than those that have already been lying in the basement or on the store counter for several months. That is why keep an eye on her condition. By the way, in order for the beets to retain their rich color, we need just a little citric acid, which we immediately add to the chopped vegetable. However, it will also play the role of a preservative.
The carrots are already ready for dressing - they are almost soft and well browned. Turn off the heat and let it wait in the wings right in the frying pan.
Depending on the age of the beets, roasting may take a different amount of time. I didn’t time it, but my young one became quite soft after about 20 minutes.
During this time, I chopped juicy red tomatoes - I simply chopped them into medium cubes. To remove the skin or not - decide for yourself. If the skin is hard, make a cross-shaped cut on each tomato (on the side opposite the stalk) and place the vegetables in boiling water for a minute. After this, take out the tomatoes and place them in a bowl of ice water - the skin literally slides off on its own. And then we chop the tomatoes and add them to the beets. Close the pan with a lid and simmer the vegetables over medium heat for 10-15 minutes, so that the tomatoes are partially pureed and release their juice. Don't forget to stir.
Finally, it's time to add the rest of the fried vegetables - onions, carrots and peppers. Mix everything and simmer for 5 minutes under the lid.
At the end, add fresh garlic passed through a press or finely chopped. Let the dressing simmer under the lid for a couple of minutes. Taste for salt and sugar and season to taste if necessary. I don’t use fresh herbs in the dressing, as I add them to the beetroot soup itself (at the end of cooking).
Two or three minutes and our aromatic beetroot dressing is ready to be covered for the winter.
Jars with lids must first be sterilized - we do this while the dressing itself is being prepared. Each housewife has her own favorite method, but I do it in the microwave - I wash the jars in a soda solution, rinse and pour about 100 ml of cold water into each. I steam them in the microwave at the highest power for 5-7 minutes each. For example, two jars will last 6-8 minutes, and three - 10 minutes. I boil the lids on the stove for about 5 minutes. Place the boiling beetroot dressing into jars.
Turn the jars upside down and wrap them in a blanket or blanket. In this position, let the workpiece cool completely for the winter. Then we transfer it to the basement or cellar and store it until needed.
In total, from the specified amount of products I get 4 full jars with a capacity of 0.5 liters and another incomplete one. Everything is calculated - an incomplete jar will immediately be used to prepare borscht for lunch. By the way, one half-liter jar of dressing is enough for a 4-liter pan (exactly the one that was used in the recipe).
It consists of beets, carrots, onions and sweet peppers. In winter you don’t have to fry it, just add a couple of spoons of this preparation to the pan with borscht. This dressing can be served at the table and as an appetizer. It goes well with potato side dishes.
Prepare the necessary products. Take raw, limp vegetables. For cooking you will need a pan with a thick bottom and small glass jars.
Peel the beets and carrots. Remove the skins from the onions and garlic. Cut off the stem of the sweet pepper and remove the seed box. Rinse all vegetables thoroughly under water.
Grind the carrots on a coarse grater.
Cut the onions into small cubes using a knife. If you like the taste of this component in borscht, you can cut it into large pieces.
Chop the pepper into small cubes or strips.
Chop the beets into large strips.
Place carrots, peppers, beets and onions into an aluminum pan.
Stir with a spoon until smooth. Add ground red pepper for spiciness, salt and granulated sugar.
Immediately pour out the sunflower oil and add tomato paste.
Stir the contents of the pan again until smooth. Place over medium heat and heat. Then cover with a lid and simmer the vegetables over low heat for 50 minutes. Every 8-10 min. stir the mixture as it sticks to the bottom.
Grate the garlic cloves on a fine grater or squeeze through a press.
First wash the jars with water and detergent. Then hold over hot steam for 4-5 minutes.
Remove containers and place on a towel. The jars should dry and cool.
Place the iron lids in boiling water for 5 minutes. Then dry on a towel or napkin.
Add chopped garlic and vinegar to the vegetable mixture. Mix the ingredients and simmer for another 20-25 minutes.
Don't forget to stir the mixture periodically during cooking. Then turn off the heat and take the jars.
