The unique “tomato juice”, which was prepared by our great-grandmothers, will be an excellent preparation for the winter.
For borscht - just right. Fragrant, tasty and, of course, light.
The expert of the online publication TUT NOVOSTI, chef Yulia Arkhipova, told more about the recipe.
Place a couple of cut garlic cloves on the bottom of a three-liter jar. This ingredient is added to taste. It is also possible without it.
Dill (with stems) and sweet pepper are added to the garlic.
Tomatoes should be placed in the jar without defects. If there are any, they should be cut off. The fruits should be cut into four parts and the container should be filled.
Next, you need to use your hands to compact the contents of the jar so that the juice appears.
At least 1 tbsp of salt should be added to the jar. No need to stir anything. You just need to cover it with a lid and put the jar on a saucer.
Tomatoes need to be left for 4-5 days. This is enough time for fermentation.
Every day you need to remove the foam. You can move on to the next stage when the tomatoes float a little and light juice appears at the bottom.
The preparation should be transferred to a saucepan and dill removed. The ingredients should be mixed with an immersion blender or minced.
The resulting mass should be placed on the stove and brought to a boil, then reduce the heat and cook for about 20 more minutes.
Next, the preparation is poured into a sterilized jar and rolled up. After cooling, the preparation is stored in a dark and cool place.
