How to prepare eggplant with cabbage for the winter

Eggplant rinse in cold water, cut into large cubes.

Boil the water and blanch the eggplants for 3-4 minutes. You can cook the eggplants and the whole, but it will be more convenient to cubes. Boiled eggplant is soft and will be harder to cut. There is a possibility that you simply crush them into porridge. And so their integrity will be maximally preserved.

Discard the blanched vegetables on a sieve and leave for 5-10 minutes to cool completely.

While the eggplant blanched, we chopped the cabbage. We use for this a sharp knife or grater-shredder for cabbage.

Three peeled sweet carrots on a grater, it is better to use large holes.

Mix cabbage, carrots, salt, sugar and spices. We took pepper peas. Those who like bay leaves, garlic or chili can add them to taste. Mix the resulting salad and gently press down with your hands so that the cabbage softens and lets the juice flow.

Pour vinegar into the salad and add the blanched eggplant cubes.

Put cabbage with eggplant in clean jars. Press so that there is no empty space.

We close the lids and put the workpiece in the refrigerator. If you have a cool cellar, then it is also suitable for storing jars of cabbage.

We remove the first test after 10 days. Delicious eggplant with cabbage ready! Throughout the winter, you will eat all jars of appetizer and perhaps think that it was necessary to prepare a larger portion.
