In my country, special food is often made that is consumed during the winter, usually it is related to vegetables that are not available during the winter. It is usually put in special jars, and is either eaten as food or some kind of salad, it usually has a sour taste. We call it zimnica or turshija,some kind of pickle a fermenting vegetables for salads and meals.
I really like salads from zimnica. This year I helped my mum to prepare special food for zimnica. Today I will share the recipe for peppers with honey .We prepared many jars and we will eat during the cold days during the winter. It can be served with some meat or baked potatoes.
Here you can see the whole process on my video YouTube channel /step by step .I made a video while we were preparing it,but I will explain it later via this post.
Wash 5 kg of red peppers and remove the stems and seeds. Cut the peppers into equal ribbons.
Arrange the peppers vertically in the already prepared jars
Press the peppers in the jar with something
Add 3 liters of water to a large saucepan
Put it to boil and add 1 preservative
**Add 250 grams of honey,
**150 grams of sugar, **
50 grams of salt and
**60 grams of essence or alcoholic vinegar****
When it is boiled put aside
Add prepared liquid with honey in each jar and close it .When each jar is finished put in a big plastic box and wrap with some blanket in order to be warm
After several days you can open it and taste it with some meal, but I prefer it to wait me till the winte,r when I open the jars when it is some special lunch organized.
Thanks for your time
