Ingredients
- For the vegetables
- 1 kilogram mixed Vegetables (equal amounts of carrots, turnip greens, green beans etc)
- For the infusion
- 350 milliliters Herb vinegar
- 750 milliliters water
- 30 grams salt
- 125 grams cane sugar
- Dill (chopped)
- For preserving
- 1 tsp Mustard seed
- 1 tsp Coriander
Preparation steps
For the vegetables, rinse them all and cut into roughly equal pieces. Blanch everything for about 5 minutes in salted water and then pour through a sieve, collecting the cooking juices. Plunge the vegetables immediately into ice-cold water and drain.
For the infusion, measure the cooking juices and make up to 750 ml volume with water if necessary (approximately 3 cups). Season with salt, sugar, dill and vinegar and bring to a boil.
For preserving, layer the spices and vegetables in the jars, leaving about a 2 cm space at the top for the lid (approximately 3/4 inch). Pour in the boiling infusion and close the lids immediately. Carefully turn the jars upside down to cool.
Tip: To preserve the vegetables for longer, you will need to process the jars according to manufacturer's instructions, or visit
