Long lasting shit

Some housewives are faced with the fact that horseradish turns sour over time, even if it was hermetically sealed in a jar. Try to cook it according to the recipe with the addition of vegetable oil and vinegar: such an appetizer will last well throughout the winter without seaming.

Thanks to vegetable oil and vinegar, horseradish will be stored for a long time without rolling into jars

You will need:

• 2 kg tomato;
• 200 g horseradish;
• 200 g of garlic;
• 1 tbsp. l. salt;
• 1 tbsp. l. Sahara;
• 3 tbsp. l. table vinegar 9%;
• 0.5 cups of vegetable oil.

Another tip on how to get rid of the pungent smell of horseradish when processing it: soak it for 1 hour in cold water.

1. Chop the peeled horseradish and garlic in a meat grinder. Remove the skin from the tomatoes, finely chop the pulp.

   

   This time, tomatoes need to be chopped separately from horseradish and garlic.

2. Add salt and sugar to the tomatoes, mix and put on medium heat. When the mass boils, wait 20 minutes and pour in the vegetable oil and vinegar.

   

   Only when the tomatoes in the pan are boiling can you add oil and vinegar

3. Mix the tomato mass with horseradish and garlic. Put what you plan to eat in the near future in the refrigerator, close the rest in jars.

By the way, there is a good way for sure to protect the crap from souring if it has not undergone heat treatment. It is necessary to add crushed aspirin to it at the rate of 1 tablet per 1 liter of throat.

Long-term storage horseradish with bell pepper and herbs

Bulgarian pepper and fresh parsley with dill add spice to the taste of this seasoning. You will need:

• 3 kg of tomatoes;
• 1 kg of bell pepper;
• 400 g horseradish (root);
• 400 g of garlic;
• 4 tbsp. l. salt;
• 1 bunch of greens - dill and parsley;

• vegetable oil.

  

  Bell peppers and fresh herbs add spice to horseradish

In principle, it is not necessary to strictly adhere to the proportions, but the amount of horseradish and garlic should be the same. You can take a little less or more tomatoes. The golden mean - 250 g of garlic and horseradish per 1 kg of tomatoes.

1. Pass the tomatoes through a meat grinder. You can also use a juicer to separate the flesh from the skin. Chop the peeled cloves of garlic and horseradish with a meat grinder or blender too. And so that your eyes do not water from the smell of horseradish, put a plastic bag over the meat grinder from the side of the outlet.

   

   A plastic bag put on the meat grinder will help to avoid tears when processing horseradish

2. Remove the partitions and seeds from the bell pepper. Grind the pulp in a meat grinder with herbs. Mix all prepared products in one container, salt and mix thoroughly.

   

   Try to choose carefully from the pepper baffles and seeds

3. Let the horseradish stand for 10-15 minutes and pour into previously sterilized jars. Apply so that the jar is almost full, leaving space to the edge of the neck literally 0.5 cm. Pour 1 tbsp. l. vegetable oil so that it completely covers the sauce. The oil will keep air from entering the sauce and it won't spoil.

4. Cover the finished horseradish with lids and store in the refrigerator or basement.

   

   Feel free to close the crap in jars: a layer of vegetable oil will not let it sour
