When your dishes are sterilized and the vegetables themselves are ready, you should start placing them in containers.
Place well-washed horseradish leaves on the bottom of the jar, which will add piquancy to your cucumbers, a few cloves of garlic, and black allspice peas. If desired, also add, cut into pieces, horseradish roots, dill (preferably with an umbrella) and cloves.
Place the prepared cucumbers tightly on top of the leaves, trying to place them as close to each other as possible. After this, fill the jars with cucumbers with boiling water, as they say, to the very top, and you can calmly watch the news, or finish reading the suggested tips. After about ten minutes, you need to pour the water into a large saucepan, this will be our brine.
In the brine mixture drained from cucumbers, you need to add salt, sugar, and vinegar. It is usually calculated by the number of prepared jars per one three liter jar, you will need to “sprinkle” two tablespoons of salt and one spoon of sugar. Vinegar different housewives offer to pour into different options, from one dessert spoon thirteen percent, up to three dessert spoons of vinegar essence. It depends on you, the more vinegar, the more sour the cucumbers, the sharper the taste.
In addition to the trivial and familiar to everyone plain cucumbers, you can do something special. We will tell you how to roll cucumbers and tomatoes further.

After all, it will be so original, tasty, and besides, also beautiful, if you roll up cucumbers and tomatoes together, they are regulars at any Russian feast! No super-knowledge is required, just put the cucumbers in the jar, as mentioned above, only up to half, and fill the remaining space with small tomatoes and do everything exactly as you were going to do with the cucumbers.

The recipe has been chosen, the vegetables are tightly packed into jars, and you’ve even poured boiling water over them once. The brine drained from the jars, already with salt and the rest of the ingredients that you have chosen, should definitely boil, at the same time, it should be boiled and metal lids, specially designed for seaming. Fill the jars with boiled solution and wait again for about ten minutes.

Some housewives believe that with the right preliminary preparation, it is enough to carry out this procedure only once, but for greater reliability, in order to avoid “bombing”, that is, exploding cans, do it three times. This will reliably destroy all microbes and prevent your workpieces from being damaged.
After all the necessary manipulations have been completed, and the jars have been filled with boiling brine for the last time, cover them with lids and quickly roll them up until they cool down.
