Sweet tomatoes in honey filling for the winter


Tomatoes in a sweet filling for the winter with the addition of honey are especially fragrant. The marinade, which is drunk even faster than the tomatoes are eaten, will also be delicious. The calculation of the components is given for one three-liter container. The amount of water will depend on the degree of filling of the vessel and the size of the tomatoes.

We examine small plump tomatoes. If there are dented or spotted ones, we put them aside, for canning we select only elastic ripe tomatoes without damage.

We prepare the jars: we wash them, scald them with boiling water, let them cool a little. We put dill greens on the bottom (whole branches or cut smaller). Throw in a couple of cloves of garlic.


For flavor, add black and allspice pepper, throw a large leaf of parsley.


We lay the tomatoes tightly, but do not press so as not to crack. If you are canning thin-skinned tomatoes, prick each with a toothpick before jarring to prevent cracking when boiling water hits the skin. Pour the filled jars with boiling water and hold for 15 minutes.


It is better to prepare the marinade on the basis of water drained from cans - it will be more aromatic. Just be sure to cover the jars so that the tomatoes do not cool before the next filling. As soon as the water is drained, add coarse salt and sugar to it. We put on the most powerful fire.


Add crystals of citric acid, boil the marinade for two to three minutes with a strong boil.


We fill jars with boiling marinade and immediately cork with screw or seaming lids (tin for a typewriter).


We turn the blanks upside down, put on a warm blanket, jacket or cover with a blanket. We leave to cool slowly for one day, after which we take out the cooled cans in the cellar or store in the pantry at room temperature.

Some housewives refuse to pickle, believing that vinegar is very unhealthy. To some extent they are right, the bite is a synthetic product, and its use really does not have the best effect on the digestive system. This is especially true for people suffering from diseases of the internal organs. I believe that vinegar in small quantities will not hurt, so I make preparations with this ingredient and with citric acid. Pickled tomatoes with citric acid have a milder sweet and sour taste than with acetic acid. It also attracts the absence of a specific sour smell in a jar with a finished product. The recipe itself is quite simple, does not require sterilization. Therefore, hostesses who are just starting to comprehend culinary skills will definitely like it. The amount of ingredients indicated in the recipe is calculated for one liter jar of pickled tomatoes.

Ingredients:

  • tomatoes.
  • garlic - 1 clove.
  • bay leaf - 1 piece.
  • cloves - 1 piece.
  • black allspice - 4-5 pieces.
  • water - 0.5 liters
  • citric acid - 0.5 tsp.
  • granulated sugar - 1.5 tbsp. spoons.
  • salt - 1 teaspoon.
  • parsley - 1-2 branches.

How to cook pickled tomatoes with citric acid:

First of all, prepare the jars for preservation. They need to be washed well with detergent, rinsed thoroughly. Then sterilize them over steam for at least 10 minutes. Boil metal lids for seaming for 5 minutes over moderate heat. Put spices at the bottom of the jars: a clove of garlic, pepper, herbs, cloves, bay leaf.

It is good to marinate small tomatoes in liter jars, but for large ones, two or three liters are more suitable. Fill jars tightly with washed tomatoes.

Boil water in a kettle at the rate of 0.5 liters for each liter jar. Pour boiling water over the tomatoes to the very top, cover with metal lids, and leave for 15 minutes.

Drain the cooled water into the multicooker bowl, add the ingredients for the marinade: salt, sugar and citric acid. In the "Soup" mode, bring the brine to a boil and boil for 2 minutes.

Pour jars of tomatoes with boiling liquid, seal tightly with metal lids. Then turn the containers upside down, cover with a blanket, leave for a day to cool. With this procedure, you will kill two birds with one stone: gradual cooling contributes to better storage of blanks, and you can also easily check how well the jars are sealed.

Bon appetit!!!

We will cook canned tomatoes with citric acid without sterilization - with triple filling. Which makes this canning recipe more appealing to canning beginners.

Ingredients:

  • Tomatoes
  • Garlic
  • horseradish leaves
  • dill umbrellas
  • Carrot
  • Black peppercorns

Marinade:

  • 1 l. water
  • 1.5 tbsp salt
  • 3 tbsp sugar
  • 1 teaspoon citric acid

How to cook canned tomatoes with citric acid:

The first step is to prepare all the ingredients for filling the jars. Wash greens and chop if needed. We clean the garlic. We also clean the carrots and cut into rings. Sprinkle the right amount of black peppercorns.

Wash the tomatoes as well, and prick with a fork near the stalk. This must be done so that the tomatoes do not burst when we pour boiling water over them.

At the bottom of sterile jars we put horseradish leaves, dill umbrellas, 3-4 cloves of garlic, chopped carrots and 3-5 black peppercorns.

Fill jars with prepared tomatoes. Half-filled jars need to be shaken so that the tomatoes “sit down” a little and more free space appears. On top, you can put a little more dill and horseradish leaves.

While the tomatoes are infused, let's do the marinade. We prepare all the ingredients: salt, sugar, citric acid, measure the water.

Mix everything in a saucepan, cover with a lid, put on the stove and bring to a boil.

After 15-20 minutes, drain the water from the jars (we don’t need it anymore) using a lid with holes.

Important: if you are canning in two or three-liter jars, then you need to pour the tomatoes with boiling water again, for 15-20 minutes! For liter and one and a half liter cans, one filling is enough.

After the water is drained from the cans, immediately pour the tomatoes with boiling marinade. As you understand, the marinade should be ready by this time. It is very important to follow the sequence in this recipe with fillings: if the water is drained from the jars, pour the next portion of boiling water immediately, and not after 5-10 minutes, so that the jars do not have time to cool. Therefore, boiling water in the kettle should always be ready.

We remove the cooled cans of tomatoes for storage in the cellar, or pantry. By the way, canned tomatoes with citric acid are perfectly stored in the apartment, just put them away from sunlight and batteries.

You can take a sample from a tomato no earlier than a month later: during this time they will marinate properly, and “make friends” in a jar with all the spices and herbs.
