- salt – 1 tbsp. spoon.
These products are enough to fill 2 liter jars.
Preparation
Chop the cabbage, add a little salt and rub with your hands so that it releases its juice.
Wash the apples, divide into quarters, remove the core, cut into thin slices.
In a spacious bowl, combine vegetables and fruits, mix gently and leave for 3 hours.
Squeeze the juice from the lemon and strain. Mix it with salted water and boil.
To fill the jars correctly, do this:
- Fill 1/3 of the containers with hot marinade.
- Spoon fruit and vegetable mixture into each half.
- Using clean fingers, gently press the lettuce together.
If we first distribute the salad into jars and then pour in the liquid, the marinade will remain on top, and the appetizer will cook in its own juice, which is wrong. Therefore, we do as indicated above.
