Canned cauliflower

I speak honestly - this is the first time I have marinated and preserved such cabbage.

At my mother-in-law’s dacha, cauliflower is one of the “low-yielding” vegetables. Marina Ivanovna plants it, takes care of it, but it grows up to be somewhat small and unsightly.

So I decided that, in addition to the assorted salads that Marina Ivanovna serves, I could pickle a jar or two of cabbage. Just because it's beautiful.

Ingredients:

Cauliflower;

Bay leaf;

Black pepper and allspice peas;

Garlic.

Cooking method

To begin, we clean the cabbage heads from the outer leaves and divide them into inflorescences. Rinse thoroughly under running water. Blanch them in boiling salted water for 2-3 minutes (10 g of salt per 1 liter of water).

After blanching, place the cabbage in prepared (sterilized) jars. At the bottom of each jar we place a bay leaf, black pepper and allspice, and a couple of cloves of garlic. Pour boiling brine over the cabbage: 20 g of salt per 1 liter of water.

Cool upside down. Store in a cool, dark place.

Preface

Cauliflower is much healthier and more healing than white cabbage - it contains more vitamins and microelements necessary for the body, and it is much easier to digest. It is even recommended for gastrointestinal diseases, but white cabbage is contraindicated in some cases. This storehouse of vitamins can be canned, and recipes based on cauliflower are simply to die for.

Most housewives still prefer to store food for the winter only and don’t even realize that they can also preserve colored vegetables. They don’t know that this is a quick, simple matter, and there are a variety of recipes for preparing this vegetable “wagon and small cart”:

  • in brine;
  • with boiling and without sterilization;
  • frozen;
  • in the form of ready-made salads.

All the recipes for canning cauliflower will almost fill an entire book. However, most often only a select few are used. These are exactly the ones presented below. Before you start “making magic” in the kitchen, you need to choose the right main ingredient - cabbage: only selected inflorescences that do not have black inclusions, without insects and pests, will do.

The cabbage should be fully ripe - with evenly white heads. The inflorescences of this vegetable are prepared for canning by cutting into small segments or simply breaking them by hand.

In this recipe, tomatoes make the cabbage taste richer than usual. The preparation of this assortment is quite simple. It will require, of course, tomatoes, as well as a marinade, in which per 1 liter of filtered water should be: 3 tbsp. spoons of granulated sugar, 1 tbsp. a spoonful of table salt, vinegar essence - 1 teaspoon and, if desired, any spices in any combination (cherry, horseradish and/or currant leaves, cloves, dill, garlic, black peppercorns and allspice, as well as others to taste) .

The vegetables must be washed, and then the cabbage must be disassembled into inflorescences. We pierce the tomatoes with a wooden skewer or toothpick in the area of ​​the stalk. We wash the jars well and, preferably, sterilize them. Place tomatoes and cabbage in prepared jars. The placement order is arbitrary, but the vegetables should fill the glass container to the very top, because after cooking they will noticeably settle.

Then we pour boiling water into the jars, and cover their necks (do not screw them in) with previously sterilized new lids. In this form, we leave the vegetables to stand for about 30 minutes. If during this time other things appear, it’s okay, the jars can be left even for several hours. The boiling water is then drained, and you will immediately see how much the vegetables have settled.

Pour several peeled cloves of garlic, 5-6 peppercorns (allspice and black), 2-3 clove buds into the jars. We cook the marinade - many do this with the same water that was drained from the vegetables, however, it is safer to use clean water. Pour salt (preferably coarse, non-iodized) and sugar into boiling water according to the above recipe. Let the marinade simmer for 5-7 minutes, and at the very end add vinegar essence to it. Then you need to pour the marinade into containers with vegetables to the very top, and screw the jars on or roll up the lid.

After waiting a few minutes, tighten the lids until they stop. We turn the jars upside down and wrap them in a blanket or other things. Only after the jars have completely cooled down are they stored for the winter in a dark, cool place intended for this purpose.

For this recipe, you need to use cauliflower with firm heads, but not overripe ones. The product prepared for the winter in this way turns out crispy, quite spicy and will not only be an excellent side dish for various meat dishes, but also an excellent snack.

The recipe for preparing cabbage is based on a 1-liter jar, and the marinade for it is based on 1 liter of water.

Ingredients:

  • cabbage heads – 1–1.5 pcs;
  • carrots (at the discretion of the hostess) – 1–2 pcs;
  • cloves (buds) – 2–3 pcs;
  • black peppercorns – 3–4 pcs;
  • sugar – 100 g;
  • bay leaf – 2–3 pcs;
  • vinegar essence – 45–55 milliliters;
  • salt – 70 g.

The cooking procedure is as follows. First, the head of cabbage must be separated into individual inflorescences, which are then thoroughly washed. We prepare liter jars - wash and sterilize. After this, put water on the stove and add 1 g of citric acid and 25 g of salt to it per 1 liter. Bring the resulting solution to a boil, and then blanch the inflorescences in it - cook for 3-4 minutes. Then use a slotted spoon to transfer the cabbage into cold water and let it cool.

Place bay leaves, cloves, and peppercorns on the bottom of the jars. You can also add a small piece of cinnamon. Then we lay the cabbage, placing its inflorescences outward (towards the walls). If you wish, you can add peeled, washed and chopped carrots.

Prepare the marinade: dissolve salt and sugar in filtered water; add vinegar essence; bring the resulting mixture to a boil. Then pour the boiling marinade into containers with cabbage. After this, cover the jars with lids and place them in boiling water for sterilization for 8 minutes. Roll the jars upside down under a warm blanket and let them cool. They should be stored in a cool, dark place.

To prepare this wonderful salad you will need:

  • cabbage – 2 kg;
  • bell pepper (preferably multi-colored) – 1 kg;
  • carrots – 1 kg;
  • medium zucchini – 2 pcs;
  • large head of garlic – 1 piece;
  • hot chili pepper (optional) - half a pod without seeds;
  • tomato juice (preferably homemade) – 1 l;
  • salt (not iodized) – 3 tbsp. spoons;
  • vinegar (table) – 1 tbsp. spoon.

First of all, as usual, wash and peel the vegetables and prepare the jars. Then: disassemble the cauliflower into small inflorescences; cut carrots, peppers and zucchini into strips; pass the garlic through a press. Place everything on the list (except vinegar and garlic) in a saucepan and bring the resulting mass to a boil. Reduce the heat (so that it does not boil too much), and then cook the vegetables in the tomato for 25 minutes. After adding vinegar and peeled garlic, cook the salad for another 5 minutes. Place the finished product in sterilized jars.

Filled jars should be rolled up and placed on lids under a blanket. For the winter, store the cooled salad in a place where it is dark and cool.

Preserving cabbage requires effort, albeit a small one. But freezing it for the winter is a very simple matter. But this processing method will allow you to preserve vitamins and beneficial microelements in the vegetable almost in full. To implement this recipe, you need free space in the freezer, clean bags and, in fact, the product itself - cauliflower.


Cauliflower is used in dietary nutrition and has a whole range of microelements and beneficial substances. It is not canned as often as traditional vegetables (for example, cucumbers or tomatoes), but the benefits from such dishes are much greater, and they are not inferior in taste. Canned cauliflower for the winter, preparations from which are becoming increasingly popular, are used to feed children and people suffering from various diseases and in need of a diet.

Heads of cabbage of even color, without spots or visible defects, and with a dense texture are best suited for winter preservation. Before starting the process, jars must be thoroughly sterilized. If the recipe calls for the use of vinegar, add it only at the end of cooking. After rolling the jars, be sure to turn the lid down and leave in this position until they cool completely.

For freezing, only fresh cauliflower heads are used, without visible defects or blemishes. The head is divided into inflorescences of approximately the same size.

How to select and prepare cabbage before starting the process

When choosing a head of cauliflower for preparation, it is carefully inspected to identify defects, pests or other flaws. The head should be a single color. The yellowness present on the inflorescences indicates their overripeness.

In principle, such a product can be used for winter preparations, but it will need to be broken and divided into small inflorescences.

How to cook cauliflower

Looking at such a rich healthy composition, it’s a pity to lose it during cooking, but if you do everything correctly, the vegetable will retain the maximum of its usefulness.

But first, let’s dwell on how to correctly select cauliflower for preparations. It received this name for its amazing structure of inflorescences, unusual leaves and variety of flowers. Cauliflower comes in white, cream, green, purple and grey. Imagine what a rainbow you can get in a jar of pickled beauty!

Selecting cauliflower for preservation

This is important to know:

  • We select only clean heads of cabbage for winter harvesting. No plaque, stains or worms. The fungus will quickly spread and ruin the entire head of cabbage. A spoiled vegetable can cause poisoning. No need to take risks.
  • The heads of cabbage should be dense and elastic. No broken buds. If the head of cabbage is nevertheless deformed, it means that it was not stored correctly, and this is also a reason for caution.
  • Take heads of cabbage only with uniform coloring. This applies to any variety.
  • The inflorescences should be juicy and not dry. Why do you need a limp head of cabbage? It won’t give juice, so it will lose the taste of the dish.

All these qualities will allow you to make excellent cauliflower preparations and ensure long-term storage in the winter.
This vegetable has many benefits. In addition to beauty and taste, it is rich in beneficial vitamins and minerals. Maybe it is not as popular as white cabbage, but an increasing number of housewives use it in cooking. It can look great as a separate independent dish, and as a side dish, canned or frozen. Homemade cauliflower “curls” are great. Let's look at a few of these recipes and enjoy the wonderful gift of summer on a winter evening.

Before cooking, to identify all the spider bugs and get rid of these troubles, soak the cabbage for 10 minutes in salted water.

Canned Cauliflower with Nuts


At another get-together with friends, my friend brought us canned cauliflower. The preparation was not simple, but with nuts. And I didn’t miss the chance to ask her for the recipe. How useful it is sometimes to go on a visit, especially since there is always the opportunity to try this or that culinary masterpiece in reality, and not look at photographs on the Internet or on the pages of a magazine.

Recipe information

  • Cuisine:European
  • Type of dish: preparations
  • Preparation method: sterilization
  • Servings:1
  • 30 min

Ingredients:

  • cauliflower – 400 g
  • onion – 150 g
  • walnuts – 100 g
  • water for marinade – 500 ml
  • coarse table salt - 1 tbsp. l.
  • table vinegar 9% - 2 tbsp. l.


Cooking method

I separate the cabbage into small inflorescences so that it is convenient to eat in winter. The main thing is to remove the green leaves and thick base at the root.


I cut the onion into quarter rings, having peeled it in advance.


I clean the nuts from their shells. I leave only the nucleoli. You can chop the nuts a little, but not into dust.


I combine everything in a separate bowl, where it will be convenient to stir.


I put cabbage with nuts and onions in glass jars. Onions and nuts will give the bland cauliflower a pleasant taste and aroma.


I cook the marinade for canning. I add salt to hot water and put it on fire. When the marinade begins to boil, add table vinegar.


I pour hot marinade over the cabbage in a jar. I pour it in gradually, as the marinade will slowly seep through the cabbage. I fill the jar almost to the top with liquid so that there is room for boiling during sterilization.


I put the jars to sterilize in warm water. When the water boils there, I time it for 10 minutes. During this time, the cabbage will become a little softer, but will not fall apart. It will still be crispy inside.


I take out the jars and immediately screw the lids on. Traditionally, I cover the cans of preserves with a “fur coat” until they cool completely.


Then I put the delicious cauliflower with nuts in the pantry until winter. It would not be a shame to surprise all the guests with such a treat, especially since the cabbage turns out great!

Recipe with carrots and garlic

They preserve the harvest in winter in many ways. For example, inflorescences pickled with carrots are very tasty.

Ingredients:

  • cauliflower - 1 large fork
  • carrots - 2 pcs.
  • garlic - 3-4 cloves
  • water – 1 l
  • sugar - 25 g
  • table salt – 50 g.

Cooking process:

  1. Separate the cabbage into inflorescences. Wash and dry.
  2. Grate the carrots and mix with cabbage.
  3. Add chopped garlic.
  4. Make a brine from water, salt and sugar, boil, cool slightly and pour the cabbage into jars.
  5. Leave to ferment for 3-4 days.

You can also pour cold brine, then the fermentation time will increase to 7 days. This snack is designed to be stored in the refrigerator or any cool place.

Store in the freezer

I really like freezing cabbage florets. It is better to do this in special containers. The inflorescences need to be boiled a little, let cool, dry them and put them in a container in the freezer. You can try freezing raw cabbage. Then when defrosting you will have to cook it a little longer.

Jars of pickled cabbage and salads, rolled up under lids, can be stored at home at room temperature. If you do not have a cellar, place the jars with the preparations in the pantry, on a glazed or heated balcony or loggia.

Winter supplies are perfectly stored both on the mezzanine and under the bed. In a word, it is important not to interfere. And if you sterilize the workpieces correctly and thoroughly, they will last for a whole year.

Enjoy storing cauliflower for the winter, let this beauty delight you on winter evenings and decorate your feast, as well as enrich it with vitamins!

This video is for those who have space in the refrigerator or a cellar. Let's salt the cauliflower:
