How to prepare tomatoes with bell pepper
Peppers are peeled, washed with pods. The pulp is cut into strips or squares.
We put the chopped pepper in boiling water, blanch for 5 minutes, put it on a sieve. So the pepper will become soft, it will be easy to put in jars.
Pour boiling water into a bowl, throw small tomatoes, leave for half a minute. Vegetables should be peeled in small batches so that the water does not cool sharply.
From boiling water we transfer tomatoes into cold water. Then remove the skin, with a sharp knife cut the stalk.
At the bottom of a clean, pasteurized jar we put blanched peppers. Fill the jar about half.
The remaining place in the bank is filled with peeled tomatoes.
Pour tomato juice without salt into the pan, pour sugar and table salt, add ground red pepper to taste. Bring the juice to a boil, boil for 5 minutes.
Pour boiling filling into jars with vegetables, fill to the top.
We close the cans, put on a towel in a deep pan, pour hot water (about 50-60 degrees).
We heat the water to a temperature of 85 degrees, pasteurize half-liter jars for 20 minutes. So that the water does not boil, we periodically lower the temperature by adding cold water.
We get the cans with forceps, screw tightly, turn the neck down onto the lid.
Cooled blanks are removed in a cool and dark room. Such canned vegetables can be perfectly stored for 1 to 3 years in a cold basement.
