Pickled: Keep your vegetables in caser form

Hello everyone, this time I want to share with you a pickle preparation that I made yesterday with my mother. The ecurtido is a made to preserve vegetables, through a homemade or chemical procedures, the homemade is made with vinegar or salt, while the chemical by an enzyme that helps preserve these foods. In what I could read this process comes from our ancestors from Mesopotamia, it was the way to preserve their pickles.

Let's start this easy and simple recipe, come and continue with me ...

Ingredients:

3 onions
1 carrot
1 paprika
1 teaspoon of sugar.
1 of salt.
5 tablespoon of white vinegar.
1 glass jar (for packing)

Procedures

• The vegetables are peeled and washed, then chop the carrot round, onion and julienned paprika.

• Place the chopped vegetables in a pot, together with a cup of water, vinegar, sugar and salt, (you can make the vegetables separately or together), cook over high heat for 15 minutes.

• In another pot place the glass container with its lid, cover with water and bring to a boil, this to sterilize the container. Add the liquid where the vegetables were boiled

• When the vegetables are ready, you can add it to a sterilized jar, in the way you want. I like to place by layer, so contemplate the colors of the vegetables in an orderly way.

 

You have your pickle ready, you do not have to buy in a store, so you will keep your vegetables for months.
