To avoid splashing the entire kitchen, cover it with a plastic bag.


Place in a bowl. Now the bow. We will not grate it, but simply chop it finely. Actually, it turns out much tastier this way. Then grate the carrots. Grind the pepper in a meat grinder.

Now we take a large (really large) container, where we put all our ingredients that we prepared earlier. We stir and put on low heat, waiting for our mass to give juice. This is about 20 minutes covered and a little more if the container is open.


Now add the remaining ingredients: vinegar, granulated sugar, etc. Wait for it to boil and continue cooking for another 50 minutes. Then add parsley and garlic. Cook for another 10 minutes.

Now we sterilize the jars and put the dressing in them. All is ready! Bon appetit!

Several recipes without vinegar have already been described above. It is also not used in what is proposed below, so it is recommended to carry out sterilization at the end for at least 50 minutes (for 0.5 l) even if stored in the cellar:

  • rummage separately beets (1.5 kg), carrots (1 kg) with white roots (150 g), red bell pepper (0.7 kg), onions (4 pcs.);
  • combine the ingredients, add chopped herbs, salt (1-2 tbsp);
  • Heat tomato sauce (0.5 l), diluted with water, over low heat.

The vegetable mass is packaged in jars, filled with tomatoes and placed for sterilization. You can replace store-bought sauce with homemade one by boiling fresh tomatoes (1 kg) by half. Add bitter and allspice peppers to the tomato mass to taste.


This recipe is designed for a large volume of winter preparations. The recipes presented here can also be calculated to select ingredients for 3 kg of beets (this is approximately 60 medium-sized root vegetables). Below is a dressing algorithm based on which you can cook borscht according to an old Russian recipe:

  • the beets are boiled in salted water, cooled, peeled and chopped;
  • carrots (3 kg) and celery roots (0.5 kg) are grated;
  • green beans (1.5 kg) and cabbage (3 small heads) are chopped and steamed until soft;
  • onions (1.5 kg) are fried in oil, adding ground red pepper to taste;
  • 10 kg of tomatoes are twisted in a meat grinder and boiled by 1/3, not forgetting to add salt to taste;
  • All vegetables are evenly packed into jars, vinegar is added to each jar (0.5 l - 1 tbsp), a bay leaf is added and tomato is poured over it.

Pasteurization time is 30-40 minutes. If desired, you can put another 1/2 chopped (but not crushed) clove of garlic and 2-3 peas of allspice (cloves) into the jars.


The beauty of modern kitchen appliances is that it allows you to make preparations that are harmless to the body (you can forget about cholesterol). A multicooker is a great help in everyday life. The ingredients for preservation prepared in it do not require subsequent pasteurization, which already facilitates the preparation process.

In this recipe, cabbage is excluded, the remaining ingredients (onions, carrots, beets) are taken in equal quantities - 10 pieces each. You will also need ripe tomatoes (3-4 pcs.), herbs (3 bunches) and garlic (1.5 heads). The entire procurement process looks like this:

  • in the “frying” mode, sauté the chopped onion for 5 minutes;
  • add chopped root vegetables and fry for another 15 minutes;
  • then add chopped tomatoes without skin;
  • by switching the multicooker to the “Stew” mode, steam the vegetables for 15 minutes;
  • add chopped garlic, herbs and, if desired, black pepper;
  • simmer for another half hour.

Once the product has cooled completely, it is packaged in plastic portioned containers and stored in the freezer.
