Peel the zucchini and cut into cubes with a face of about 1.5 cm. Fold them to the onions and carrots.
Sweet peppers to clear the stalk and seeds. Each pod is best to try for sharpness, as it may come across over-pollinated bitter specimens. Chop the pepper with straws about 1 cm wide and send to other vegetables.
Dice tomatoes and garlic through a press. Chop greens. Add these and the remaining salad ingredients (salt, peppercorns, vinegar, leftover butter) to the cauldron and simmer for about an hour under the lid.
Pack the prepared vegetable salad in hot sterilized jars and roll up the boiled lids. There should be a little empty space in the bank.
Turn the hot preservation onto the covers and wrap it with a thick blanket. After a day, when the banks are completely cooled, lower the salad into a cold, dark place for winter storage. After a week, it’s worth checking if a jar is swollen.
You can store a salad according to this recipe for a year, but it is eaten much faster. Bon Appetit!
