Can't wait to find out the recipe?
Do not hurry!
First, go to the garden and choose the ripe and beautiful tomatoes that you meet on your way. Leave them to lie down for two days, covering them with a piece of cloth.
After the allotted time, rinse them thoroughly and seek help from the "gifts of civilization" - a blender or juicer. Crush or squeeze juice out of them.
If nothing is at hand from the technique, do not be discouraged. Here the "grandmother's method" will come to your aid.
Cook the tomatoes until they boil, and then quickly cool them under ice water. At the same time, the skin, as if by magic, will easily come off them, and you will only have to grind the pulp to the state of a liquid gruel.
Attention! The finale is close.
Then, simmer the resulting juice or gruel in a saucepan over the fire until the water boils and leave for another 10 minutes.
Everything! Applause! You did it. Appetizing tomato juice is ready.
Already at this stage, without any additives, it turns out to be very tasty. You can roll it right in this form. And in winter everyone will add salt and pepper to their taste.
If the juice turned out to be very liquid, then you can cheat - leave it to stand for a day. During this time, all the density will settle to the bottom, and the water will remain at the top.
Drain this water, boil it for another three minutes and put it in jars.
The juice is especially tasty from pink tomatoes. Lick the spoon.
Don't just take our word for it, but feel free to experiment and test!
