Beets are well kept fresh all winter. But this vegetable is cooked for a long time, so a harvest like beetroot caviar for the winter will save you a lot of time. You can eat this tasty snack just like that, or you can quickly cook delicious borsch on its basis. Here are some recipes for beetroot caviar.

For the preparation of caviar for the winter, only juicy fresh beets without signs of withering and spoilage are suitable. You should choose vegetables of saturated color, there should be no white stains on the cut.

For the preparation of caviar, both raw beets and pre-cooked are used. Root crops are boiled in water or steamed, or baked in the oven until cooked. In the latter case, the beets need to be wrapped in foil so that it does not burn.

If there is no time to wait until the beets are cooked or baked, then it can be cooked in the microwave. To do this, the beets are washed and placed in a tight bag or dishes with a lid for the microwave. We cook a medium-sized root crop for 8 minutes at full capacity. Then let the beets lie down without taking it out of the oven for 10 minutes. And then turn on the microwave again for 5 minutes.

Ready beets need to be cooled, peeled and chopped. You can use a grater, a blender or skip vegetables through a meat grinder. Next, the prepared beets are mixed with the rest of the ingredients and stew until cooked.

Hot beetroot caviar is packaged in hot sterilized jars and immediately tightly closed.

Interesting facts: in Russia, beets have long been considered a dessert root crop. It was baked in the oven, cut into circles and served for tea.

How to prepare for the winter delicious beetroot caviar with pepper and fresh tomatoes (recipe with photo):

To make the appetizer really tasty, use exclusively fresh and high-quality vegetables. Do not buy fodder beets, take only the dining room. It has a small size (up to 10 cm in diameter) and intense coloring. The surface of the tubers should be flat, without cracks and dents, and the core should be firm and juicy. No seals and voids! Store beets in a cool place before processing. If you bought it with tops, then it should be cut. Leaves draw moisture from the vegetable.

Wash and peel the root crops. Cut into small pieces. In raw form, pass through a meat grinder. Use a grid with medium or large holes. You can also grind appetizer components using a blender or food processor (in pulsation mode, so that small pieces form).

Add all the vegetable oil to the beetroot puree at once. You can cook on sunflower, olive, corn and other types. Shuffle. Send to a stewpan or pan with a thick bottom. Bring to a boil. Tighten the fire to a minimum. Tomite with little heat for about half an hour. During this period, mix the mass 2-3 times to avoid burning the product. After this stage, the beets will remain slightly moist, but noticeably softened.

You can also cook such caviar in a slow cooker in the appropriate mode ("Braising", "Multi-cook", etc.). It turns out very tasty - household fingers lick everything and be sure to ask for supplements. Cooking time is set individually, depending on the model and power of the device. Stew for about 20-30 minutes, and then evaluate the beets.

Cut tomatoes into slices. Remove the remaining stalk. Twist through a meat grinder.

On a note:

To obtain a more delicate consistency of snacks, it is recommended to first remove the skin from the tomatoes. To make it easier to separate the thin film from the pulp, blanch the tomatoes. On each fruit, make two incisions crosswise. Dip in cool boiling water. Soak tomatoes in it for 5-7 minutes. Remove the skin.

Grind pepper with a meat grinder (blender) separately from other components. Before that, remove seeds and tails from the pods. The rest - chop coarsely.

Beetroot after stewing will decrease in volume. Part of the juice will boil. Add tomato puree to it. Shuffle. Return to low heat. Cook after boiling another 30-40 minutes. Then put the pepper in the pan. Continue stewing caviar for 15-20 minutes.

Chop the garlic with a knife or squeeze through a press. Hot pepper (remove seeds if desired) also cut as finely as possible. Change the number of spices up or down to taste. Put them in a snack. Cook another 5-7 minutes. Add salt and, if necessary, sugar. Sugar will be needed if beets and tomatoes are not sweet enough. Bring to a boil.

Spread the prepared caviar in sterilized dry jars. Close with screw caps or roll up with a typewriter. Cool under the rug. Store until winter in a dark room (possible at room temperature). For the preparation of such snacks for the short term (up to 30-45 days), you can use jars with clip fasteners. Pour boiling water over them several times, dry. Spread the caviar. After cooling, hide on the bottom shelf of the refrigerator.

The caviar turns out to be juicy, moderately sharp, aromatic - well, it’s very difficult not to lick all the fingers after eating.

Winter roasted beetroot caviar with tomato paste

The fried beets are especially aromatic and delicious. Spicy spices and sweet carrots wonderfully fit into this delicious picture. In the hunt you can kill a whole jar with a loaf of white fragrant bread. It is very difficult not to get carried away!

Take:

Exit:  about 4 liters of product.

Order of preparation:

Wash and peel all vegetables. Grate the carrots on a medium grater. Fry in a third of the vegetable oil. Cook over medium heat for about 15 minutes. The carrot will become soft and lightly browned. Do not forget to mix. Squeeze the finished frying with a spoon from excess fat (it must be left in a pan for frying other vegetables). Transfer to a pot or slow cooker for subsequent stewing.

Chop the onion into a small cube. If there is little oil left after carrots, add more. Sauté until transparent and a light golden hue. Remove the rosy onion from the pan. Try to capture the minimum amount of fat, so as not to get too high in calories and oily.

To quickly fry the onion, salt it in a pan.

Beets are fried longer than other ingredients. Do not use fodder roots for the preparation of caviar and other dishes. They are inferior in taste to the dining rooms. In order not to be mistaken, buy small fruits with an intensely dark color. Grate the vegetable on a medium or coarse grater. Fry until cooked for about 20 minutes.

Note:

If after frying there remains unspent oil, you do not need to add it to the caviar additionally.

Transfer the beetroot to a saucepan. Add tomato paste diluted in warm water. It can be replaced with freshly ground mashed tomatoes in the amount of 1 kg, homemade tomato juice. Shuffle. Sprinkle sugar and salt. Simmer for 40 minutes.

Add chopped garlic and hot pepper. If you want a distinct sharpness, do not remove the seeds from the chili. Shuffle. Stew the caviar for another 5-7 minutes, it should become completely soft. Try and, if necessary, bring to taste.

Arrange the hot appetizer immediately in sterilized, dried cans. Roll or screw caps. Cool under heat insulating material (old blanket, outer clothing). Lower the cooled eggs from the beets to the underground or transfer them to the pantry for long storage until winter. If not all the blanks fit in the jars, consider yourself lucky. You can try it right away. But it turns out she’s very appetizing - you will choke on saliva and lick all-all fingers. The appetizer is fragrant, not too spicy, just melts in your mouth. Spread on a piece of bread - that’s the finished snack. It can be served as a seasoning for meat dishes.
