How to make a marinade for tomatoes
Pour the specified amount of water into a saucepan. If you don't have a filter, you can use regular tap water. Place the pan on the stove and bring to a boil.
Reduce heat and after 1-2 minutes add coarse salt and granulated sugar.
If you want the tomatoes to acquire a sophisticated flavor and the syrup to acquire a beautiful pinkish hue, add a piece of fresh beetroot to the jar. Stir the marinade and add spices.
Simmer for 5-6 minutes. After the cooking time has elapsed, remove the pan from the heat and add the vinegar. Never add vinegar to boiling brine to avoid the formation of foam and the subsequent evaporation of the preservatives.
The marinade is ready. As you can see, it's simple. Place the tomatoes in the prepared jars and finish the process.
Tomatoes with an unusual sweet taste will make your menu more interesting and varied.
