Recipes for pickling carrots in Korean for the winter at home

I suggest closing up a few jars of savory snacks – Korean pickled carrots – for the winter. You've probably eaten a salad with that name in a cafe or with friends. In fact, this is a very profitable dish, both due to the possibility of using it with meat, fish, chicken, and the cheapness of the products used in preparation.

I'm pleased with the ease of manufacture. There are many options for carrot salad, probably as many housewives as there are so many recipes. Let's try some of the most affordable and delicious Korean carrot recipes for the winter.

Korean carrots with coriander and chili pepper

My best friend gave me my first recipe for winter carrots in Korean. She taught me how to choose the right carrots for this salad. As she explained to me, the color of the root crop and its juiciness are important. The brighter the color of the vegetables, the better the taste of the preparations.

All the ingredients necessary for Korean carrots are given in the table. Their exact observance guarantees the desired spiciness of the snack.

Let's start cooking with carrots. You'll have to tinker with it. First, wash it in warm water and clean it. Before rubbing, rinse in running water and pat dry with a towel.

Let's take a special grater, I bought myself a reasonable price for Korean carrots and have been using it for the second year now. The stripes turn out long, even, beautiful. I put them in a large enamel basin. I mix it in it before adding it.

I like garlic with large cloves. It is easier to clean. To grind it, I have a special miniature grater. I grate it and pour it into a bowl with carrots. This is where I send all the spices. I mix thoroughly with my hands. I don’t forget to put disposable gloves on them so that their skin doesn’t turn orange.

I cover the basin with cling film and put it on the shelf in the refrigerator. I have it there for at least 12 hours. During this time, the carrots produce juice and acquire the aroma of spices.

Part of the salad can be served to the table, please your household, and most of it can be sent to jars. I pre-wash them in several waters with soda and sterilize them in the microwave for 5-7 minutes.

I make sure to sterilize the salad placed in jars. After sterilization, it is stored for a long time and does not become soft. I put the jars in a saucepan with water and boil half-liter jars for 10-15 minutes, liter jars longer - 25 minutes.

I take the jars, sealed with iron lids, to the cellar for storage. Reviews from people who have tried the recipe are positive. Housewives young and old cook it and add it to their favorites.

Korean spicy carrots with cilantro

I especially like this version of preparing carrots for the winter in Korean. Probably because I like cilantro, only picked from the garden and dried. I'll tell you how to cook using it. This recipe requires 5 kg of carrots. I have to sweat while I wash, clean, and scrub. Five kilograms is not enough.

I put the carrots in a bowl and sprinkle them with salt. It takes 1 not full tablespoon and sugar - 2 tbsp. l. I stir it and let it sit for a while for 15-20 minutes. Sprinkle with pepper. I take a teaspoon each of red and black. In this version, I use 70% vinegar essence for canning. When I prepare the marinade, I add 30 ml 20 minutes after the peppers and mix again.

After the carrots, I peel the onions. I choose 2 large heads, peel them and chop them into small pieces. You also have to tinker with garlic. I weigh the heads; I need 300 g of clean cloves. I prefer to put a glove on my hand and grate the garlic. Without gloves, your fingers will sting.

I put a frying pan on the stove. The onion needs to be fried. When the color turns golden, I transfer it with a slotted spoon into a bowl with carrots. Pour dry, chopped cilantro into the remaining oil. Need 2 tbsp. l.2 minutes is enough for the aroma of the herb to transfer into the oil.

Pour it into a bowl and stir the salad. Pour out the chopped garlic after 20 minutes. The mass must be mixed at short intervals several times. Spices should be distributed evenly throughout the entire volume. This recipe is without sterilization.

I put the prepared vegetable mass, the marinade, which has released its juice, into sterile jars. There is no need to add anything else to jars of Korean carrots for the winter. We seal them tightly with steamed lids and place them on a shelf in the refrigerator.

If you don't have time

Modern women often have no free time at all. They can recommend a simple method. With its help, you can prepare carrots for the winter or eat them in a day.

Preservation in this version of the salad occurs with the help of apple cider vinegar. The marinade will require 4 tbsp. l. In addition, the marinade requires 0.5 liters of water, 4 tablespoons of salt, 7 tablespoons of sugar and a full 250 g glass of vegetable oil. Place everything listed above in a saucepan and bring to a boil.

We prepare 1 kg of bright orange carrots, juicy and undamaged, 1 large head of garlic and 1 vigorous, hot pepper. We peel the carrots, wash them and grate them on a special grater.. Remove the peel from the garlic, peel the cloves and pass through a garlic press.

Pour the garlic mass into the container where the carrots are and mix it with a spatula. At the same time, we sterilize the jars. Place pickled carrots on them and pour boiling brine over them. Canning quickly. We roll up the hot cans and put them under the fur coat. If you don’t have any free time, I recommend making this salad.

Any of the described options is good in its own way. Autumn is the time for preparations. At their dachas, many have grown a number of carrots. There is no guarantee that it will last until spring.But salads prepared according to the recipes I have tested will last in jars all year.
