Mushrooms in tomato puree are an excellent appetizer for a winter feast. This is one of the most reliable, reliable and safe canning methods. White, boletus and aspen mushrooms are most suitable for such canned food, but mushrooms or raincoats can also be used.
It is necessary
-
- 1kg of mushrooms;
- 1kg of tomatoes;
- 0.5 tablespoons of salt;
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- vinegar;
- Bay leaf;
- large saucepan;
- cans with a volume of 1L or 0.5L;
- colander;
- a pan for sterilization;
- sieve.
Instructions
Step 1
For canning, choose strong, flawless mushrooms. Remove debris, wash mushrooms. Even if they are not very large, it is best to cut them in half. Large ones can be divided into 4 parts. For this type of canned food, both hats and legs are used. If you have a lot of "quiet hunting" trophies, put the prepared parts in slightly salted water.
Step 2
Heat up the water. For 1kg of peeled mushrooms, you need 1 glass of water. Salt the water (15 g of salt for this amount of liquid will be enough). Put mushrooms in hot water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 20 minutes. When the mushrooms settle to the bottom, drain the water through a colander.
Step 3
Make tomato puree. Select ripe tomatoes, wash and cut. The number and size of the pieces do not matter, the tomatoes will boil up anyway. The main thing is that they are well ripened and soft enough.
Step 4
Place the tomatoes in a saucepan, cover with water and bring to a boil over high heat. Then reduce heat and simmer with constant stirring until the tomatoes are well cooked.
Step 5
Rub the tomato slices through a sieve. Put the resulting mass in a saucepan (you can take a larger dish) and continue to cook over medium heat until the volume of mashed potatoes is reduced by half or even slightly more. Add salt, sugar and bay leaves 5 minutes before the end of cooking. 1 kg of finished puree accounts for 0.5 tablespoons of salt and 1 tablespoon of sugar. You can add some vinegar.
Step 6
Add boiled mushrooms to the boiled puree. If you correctly calculated the amount of food, you should get a 1: 3 ratio of mashed potatoes and mushrooms. Wait for the contents of the pot to boil properly. It will take 5-8 minutes.
Step 7
Tins for mushrooms in tomato puree are prepared in the same way as for any other canned food. They must be thoroughly washed and warmed up. Put the mushrooms in the tomato in them, cover with lids, put in a pot of water and sterilize. Liter cans must be sterilized within 35 minutes, for half-liter cans, half an hour will be enough. You should not use larger dishes for preserving mushrooms.
