Mom's Ajika

Description

A delicious addition to everyday and festive dishes. You can prepare this ajika for winter by simply pouring it into sterile jars and sealing them tightly with sterile lids. I love ajika—it goes well with meat, potatoes, vegetables, and various dishes. This version of ajika is made with apples. It turns out absolutely excellent and is perfect with pasta, meat, and vegetables.
