Comments
I’ve been canning tomatoes in the same way for several years now, but I just threw the garlic into the jar. Now I’ll try stuffing tomatoes with garlic. By the way, the taste of tomatoes is improved by pieces of horseradish root, they are placed at the bottom of the jar.
Antonina Svistunenko Reply: July 24th, 2021 at 14:36
Irina, this is a classic recipe for pickling tomatoes, when we add garlic and horseradish root to a jar. Horseradish actually improves the taste and perfectly preserves tomatoes as a preservative. And this recipe, of course, differs from the classic one, because here we add vinegar as a preservative and the taste is already different, and there is also more sugar and more garlic, because... it's in every tomato. Although you can add a piece of horseradish, why not! This definitely won’t spoil the taste!
I’m taking this recipe into account + I want to express special gratitude to the creators of the site. You have truly reliable recipes with guaranteed excellent results.
Antonina Svistunenko Reply: July 31st, 2021 at 15:22
Irina, thank you! Indeed, all recipes are tested - prepared in your home kitchen and tested!
Our tomatoes are starting to ripen. Therefore, your recipe is very helpful. But isn't there too much sugar? I think it will be very sweet. What if it's a little smaller? For example: 3 tablespoons of sugar and 2 salt? How do you think? Or it won't be the same.
Antonina Svistunenko Reply: August 1st, 2021 at 20:10
Irina, you don’t need a lot of salt! For 1 liter, 1 tbsp of salt is enough. You can taste the marinade before adding it, but I assure you that the tomatoes will turn out super tasty with this recipe! Although this is, of course, a matter of taste!
