Pre-sterilized the bank in any convenient way for you. Be sure to dry with moisture. At this time, we begin to prepare the cucumbers. To start, wash, remove the buttocks, then pour cool boiling water, leave for 2 minutes and immediately rinse with cold water. This will make the vegetables juicy, crunchy so that the fruits can survive better. Grape leaves thoroughly wash, dry, spread the vegetable in the middle and wrap it in the form of a roll.
