Cucumber Salad for Winter
Description
A simple way to make preserves ahead of time. I borrowed this recipe from an acquaintance—I really loved her salad at a holiday dinner. For making the winter cucumber salad "Winter King," try to choose cucumbers that are not too large and are firm, so they stay crunchy later. Let's look at the recipe. The preserve is ready for winter storage.

Step 3
For this amount of ingredients, add two tablespoons of 10% vinegar. Mix well again and fill the jars. Use boiled water at room temperature as the brine. Sterilize the jars for 15 minutes, then seal the jars, turn them upside down, and wrap them. After that, the salad can be put into storage.
