Greetings to all readers of my culinary channel! My name is Christina, and I am very glad to see you on my channel.
Now is the season of delicious cucumbers, and I cook a lot of them. I also make lightly salted cucumbers at least 2 times a week. Our family loves them very much. And recently I found a new way for me, how to cook lightly salted cucumbers in just 30 minutes. They turn out to be very tasty, and even look impressive! Such cucumbers are suitable for any meat, but I just eat with young potatoes. And I'm soooo delicious! 🥰
And now a second of humor: 😂
- Mademoiselle, can I have your pen? What an elegant... Can you get your uncle a cucumber?
The anecdote is taken from the site anekdotovstreet.com
Previously, I always made whole salted cucumbers or cut them lengthwise into 2-4 parts, just added salt, sugar, vinegar, a horseradish leaf and stopped there. Such cucumbers are salted for a long time... But the recipe that I will tell you today, I liked it so much that now I have written it down in my cookbook and use it regularly. I already checked it 10 times and everyone liked it!
So, for cooking we need:
600 grams of cucumbers.
3 large cloves of garlic.
3 tbsp. l. salt without a slide.
3 hours l. vinegar 9%
3 hours l. honey (can be replaced with sugar).
Black pepper, pepper mix, or red pepper to taste.
900 ml. cold water
I recommend reading this article to the end, so as not to miss all the subtleties of cooking and in the end get really delicious cucumbers!
Let's start cooking!
First you need to cut the cucumbers into circles. You can do it with a simple knife, but I have a special kitchen gadget that I make this beauty: (this is an ordinary vegetable peeler with this function, I bought it 10 years ago)
All products are designed for 3 four hundred gram cans.
I put cucumbers in clean jars.
I put one minced garlic clove in each jar (I just crushed a clove with a knife and cut it).
I add a mixture of peppers to each jar (amount to your taste).
Then one heaped teaspoon of honey in each jar. You can substitute sugar or sweetener for honey.
Then one level tablespoon of salt (16 gr. per jar) and one teaspoon of vinegar.
And this is my assistant - the cat Vasya. Do you have such? 😻 He is very cute and loves to lie at my feet when I cook.
I pour ordinary cold clean water into each jar and close it with lids.
I send the cucumbers to the refrigerator for 30 minutes and you're done! I drain the marinade and serve the cucumbers on the table right with the garlic and spices that were in the jar. Cucumbers are lightly salted and very, very tasty. How do you like this method? I am waiting for you in the comments!
Cucumbers can be kept in the refrigerator for several days. I somehow stood for 5 days (did a lot) and they were very tasty. The only thing, if you are going to eat cucumbers in a few days, then put less salt.
