- cucumbers
- vinegar
- 4-5 tablespoons coarse salt (depending on how many jars you want to put)
- 2-3 tablespoons of sugar
- Sliced carrots
- Bay leaves
- Grain mustard & pepper & coriander
Nu am uitat si de castraveti murati. Reteta e la fel de simpla:
- castraveti
- otet
- 4-5 linguri de sare grunjoasa ( depinde de cate borcane vreti sa puneti)
- 2-3 linguri de zahar
- morcovi taiati rondele
- foi de dafin
- boabe de mustar & piper & boabe de coriandru
The first step is to sterilize the jars and to wash the cucumbers.
Prima etapa e sa sterilizam borcanele si sa spalam foarte bine castravetii.
Then start to put the cucumbers nicely in the jar, occasionally slipping carrot disks among them.
Meanwhile we boil the vinegar mixed with salt, sugar, mustard seeds and peppercorns, bay leaves, to boiling. Then leave to cool for 5 minutes, and carefully pour into the jar. For safety, just put a knife under the jar ( in Z form).
Apoi incepem sa asezam castravetii frumos in borcan, strecurand din cand in cand rondelele de morcovi printre ei.
Intre timp punem la fiert otetul, amestecat cu sarea,zaharul, boabele de mustar si piper, foile de dafin, pana da in clocot. O lasam la racit 5 minute, si o turnam cu grija in borcan. Pentru siguranta, puneti un z de cutite sub borcan sau asezati borcanul pe o lama de cutit.
Then close and seal the jars :).
It is best to store them in a cool place.
We ate them after 2-3 weeks, and they were very good :)
Apoi inchidem si sigilam borcanele :).
Este bine sa le depozitati la loc racoros.
Noi i-am mancat peste 2-3 saptamani si erau tocmai buni :)
