Adjika from tomato and pepper. Adjika from tomatoes and garlic

11.10.2019 Salads

Seasoning from tomatoes, hot pepper and garlic has long been used by culinary experts from different countries. Thanks to the spicy sauce, meat and fish dishes acquire a deeper, more expressive taste.

No cooking

Adjika is an amazing seasoning. It can be stored both raw and boiled, and heat treatment does not affect the taste. Of course, seasoning without cooking is rich in a large number of vitamins and minerals, although shelf life is reduced compared to a cooked product.

The main property of hot sauce is the ability to stimulate appetite. Therefore, for people who are on a diet, this product will not be useful in losing weight. Despite the presence of burning constituents that stimulate digestion, and low calorie content (59 kcal per 100g), this supplement will force you to absorb more food than is required to satisfy hunger.

Raw adjika classic

Strictly speaking, initially classical adjika did not include tomatoes at all: Caucasian seasoning included red pepper, grated with herbs. But as the sauce spreads across countries and continents, the main option began to look exactly as described in our recipe.

Ingredients:

  • red tomatoes - 1.5 kg;
  • garlic - 200 g;
  • hot pepper - 3 small or 2 medium pieces;
  • bell pepper - 2 red copies;
  • onion-turnip - 2 large onions;
  • vegetable oil - 70 ml;
  • 9% vinegar - 60 ml;
  • salt - 25 g.

Choose ripe red tomatoes, rinse and remove the dense core. Clean peppers clear of seeds. We cut the peeled onions into pieces so that it passes unhindered into the meat grinder. Remove dry flakes with a share of garlic. We send prepared vegetables to the meat grinder.

Thoroughly mix the crushed products with your hands or a wooden spoon, pour in the oil, salt and season with vinegar. Mix all the ingredients in the sauce again. The product is ready for use and storage. The mixture is laid out in sterilized glass jars and kept under a polyethylene lid in a refrigerator.

Adjika is an excellent means of preventing colds. The product contains vitamins such as PP, A, C, and B vitamins. Of the minerals, iodine, potassium, phosphorus, calcium, copper, chlorine, and 9 more elements are represented. Such a composition provides the body's resistance to viruses and generally strengthens its protective functions.

Raw adjika with horseradish

One of the most popular and simple recipes for cooking adjika includes only 4 products: tomatoes, garlic lobes, horseradish root and salt. The simplicity of the dish also consists in the fact that the sauce does not require additional heat treatment.

Ingredients:

  • ripe tomatoes - 1.5 kg;
  • horseradish - 100 g of root;
  • garlic - 6 shares;
  • salt - 20 g.

We wash the tomatoes under running water. We scald with boiling water and remove the skin burst from high temperature. Remove the dense core. The horseradish roots are cleaned from dark spots, we scrape off the outer layer with a knife to white. We spread both products on a napkin so that excess moisture is gone.

We clear garlic from dry protective layers, rinse in running water. Grinding the components of the recipe is recommended only in a meat grinder (mechanical or electrical): some blenders may not be able to cope with the hard roots of horseradish. Salt the vegetables after they have passed through the grill of the meat grinder. Mix the resulting solution until the salt is completely dissolved.

We spread the sauce in dry chilled jars that have been sterilized. We store on the top shelf of the refrigerator.

Horseradish roots are best prepared immediately before mixing with other vegetables. The cleaned parts in the open air quickly become airy, the root itself will fade. To prevent this from happening, until prepared, the prepared ingredient should be dipped in ice water.

Georgian raw

The Georgian additive is sent to meat and fish dishes both at the stage of their creation and at the time of readiness. The highlight of the sauce is the presence of herbs that grow in abundance in the Caucasus and are used in Georgian national cuisine.

Ingredients:

  • red tomatoes - 2 kg;
  • bell pepper - 3 red pcs .;
  • hot pepper - 2 pods;
  • garlic - 4 heads;
  • dried cilantro - 10 g;
  • hops-suneli - 1 packet;
  • salt - 25 g.

We wash the pods of hot pepper and dry for 10 hours on a towel. After this time, we remove from each stalk and seeds. We also act with fresh sweet pepper: peel and cut in half. Break the heads of garlic into slices, peel them and rinse them in water. We wash the tomatoes in water, scald with boiling water and remove the skin.

Grind peppers and tomatoes in a blender, finely chop the garlic with a knife. Add dried cilantro, suneli hops and salt. Mix all the products. To avoid burning your hands with bitter pepper, you can work with gloves. The shelf life of such a seasoning is four, a maximum of four and a half months in the refrigerator.

Georgian adjika has a huge number of options. Many of them are created on the basis of wine vinegar. Separately, it is worth mentioning the green Georgian adjika, which includes only herbs and green pepper pods. Unlike the Abkhazian variety, walnuts are never found here.

With cooking

Boiled adjika is ready to eat for a whole year if it is cooked at the time of preparation. The severity of such a seasoning does not depend on the cooking time, but on the amount of hot pepper in the composition of the product.

Adjika is not the safest product. Its piquancy and pungency is not the best way to affect the health of people with stomach problems. Any form of gastritis instantly responds to seasoning. Additive to meat or fish should not be consumed during a failure of the liver or kidneys. At risk are also children under 13 years old and pregnant women.

Boiled adjika for the winter

The cooking option is primarily suitable for residents of urban apartments. Where there is no cool cellar, and the refrigerator is occupied with pots and shop delicacies, boiled winter preparations can be stored in an ordinary closet.

Ingredients:

  • ripe tomatoes - 2 kg;
  • garlic - 300 g;
  • bell pepper - 1 kg;
  • hot pepper - 3 pods;
  • vegetable oil - 100 ml;
  • parsley - 50 g;
  • dill greens - 50 g;
  • salt - 15 g;
  • sugar - 10 g.

We wash the vegetables. In tomatoes, remove the core, in peppers - seeds. We send both to the blender, chop. Cook over low heat for 50-60 minutes.

Grind peeled garlic and hot pepper. Add finely chopped greens to this mixture. After an hour of boiling, add the hot mixture to the tomatoes and bell pepper. Pour in oil, salt and add sugar. The resulting solution simmers over low heat for half an hour.

We sterilize glass jars and, not allowing to cool, we fill with freshly prepared adjika. We cork with tin lids, turn over, cover with a blanket or blanket until it cools completely.

Not every tomato variety is suitable for making the sauce. To make the consistency thick, saturated, the choice should be stopped on fleshy, low-water specimens. Most often, housewives choose the grade Cream for cooking adjika. But besides this variety, Pink Flamingo, President, Gift of the Volga region, Big Beef are suitable for seasoning. They are characterized by a high sugar content, delicate peel that can not be removed, and scanty filling with small seeds.

With carrots

Oddly enough, spicy sauce, which includes root vegetables, also belongs to adjika. Mistresses are experimenting with different products - turnips and beets, celery root and carrots. The most popular part of these types of blanks remains bright orange carrots.

Ingredients:

  • tomatoes - 1.5 kg;
  • garlic - 7 shares;
  • bulgarian pepper - 4 pcs.;
  • hot pepper - 1 pod;
  • turnip onion - 2 small or 1 large;
  • carrots - 2 medium;
  • lean oil - 150 ml;
  • vinegar (9%) - 30 ml;
  • salt - 15 g;
  • granulated sugar - 50 g.

We prepare pure vegetables for heat treatment: remove the stalks and core from tomatoes and peppers, peel the garlic and carrots. Grind dense ingredients in a food processor. Minced vegetables boil over low heat for half an hour. In order not to burn, do not forget to stir with a wooden spatula.

After 30 minutes, salt, add oil and add granulated sugar. Bring the mixture to a boil and simmer for an additional 5 minutes. We pour the resulting product into disinfected cans, roll it up with lids, turn it over and wrap it with heat until it cools completely.

A spicy mixture of spices and vegetables, at first glance, does not require special knowledge. However, there are nuances that will help to make the taste more delicate or, on the contrary, tart, allowing the spices to reveal the aroma brighter and increase the shelf life of the product.

  1. Adjika is made from ripe vegetables with no signs of disease or harmful insect damage. The presence of damaged copies can provoke premature souring of the product.
  2. An insufficient amount of salt, garlic and horseradish roots, which are natural preservatives, can also cause a “floated” adjika.
  3. The dishes for storing the sauce should be perfectly clean. It can be disinfected with steam over boiling water, high temperature in the oven or using an electric field in the microwave.
  4. Raw adjika is stored exclusively in cool places: a refrigerator or a cellar. Vitamins last longer in the dark. If the seasoning has cooked for at least 20 minutes and has been hot sealed with a tin lid, it can be stored at room temperature in a dark room.
  5. The minimum composition of adjika is tomatoes, peppers, garlic and salt. Spice herbs (cilantro, dill, fenugreek, celery, basil, marjoram, etc.), as well as vegetables (sweet and burning peppers, carrots, onions) and fruits (apples, plums) help diversify the flavor of seasoning.
  6. If the herbs and seeds of the ingredients are calcined in a pan, the essential oils will be released and the mixture will become truly fragrant.
  7. Pepper seeds give a special spice to the sauce. If the product is made on the basis of green fruits, the taste will be more delicate and less sharp.
  8. So that the juice of hot pepper does not irritate the skin of the hands, work with the vegetable should be in disposable gloves.

Conclusion

A mixture of spices and salt, which was originally called adjika, today is a culinary supplement of several types. It can be a mixture of salt, dried herbs and red pepper. As a rule, such a filler is used as a marinade component for poultry and meat before frying or stewing. It can be a sauce of tomatoes, sweet peppers and garlic, which is served with already cooked dishes. Or it may come close to salads, including ingredients such as carrots, walnuts and coarsely chopped greens. In any case, no matter which recipe is chosen, seasoning will make the treat tasty and healthy.

During the existence of adjika, inventive housewives have come up with hundreds of recipe options. Thanks to them, instead of the traditionally red Caucasian seasoning, green and orange-brown appeared, spicy and not, from freshly grated and stewed vegetables.
