Ingrediente:
  • 8-10 gogonele
  • 5-6 morcovi
  • 1 telina cu frunze (de marime medie)
  • 1-2 ardei grasi
  • 1 pepene mic
  • 1 conopidă (medie)
  • 200-300 gr boabe de mustar
  • 8-10 castraveciori cornison
  • 1-2 capatani de usturoi
Pasi:
Se spala legumele.
Intr-un borcan mare se arunca boabe de mustar si cativa catei de usturoi taiati in doua (nu e nevoie sa ii curatati, insa taiati varful).
Puneti pepenele verde.
Incepeti sa puneti gogonele, ardei gras, castraveti cornison, felii de telina, morcov taiat la ambele capete. Morcovii se pot taia in doua si apoi in jumatate.
Se adauga cateva bucati de conopida.
Puneti din nou mustar (1-2 linguri) si cativa catei de usturoi taiati in jumatate. Se adauga iar castraveciori, gogonele, morcovi, telina felii si conopida. Se pune din nou usturoi mustar.
Procesul se repeta pana la umplerea borcanului.
La final se pun frunzele de telina in cerc.
Intr-un bol gradat se pune apa rece si se adauga pentru fiecare litru de apa o lingura rasa de sare grunjoasa. Apa sarata rezultata se pune in borcan si se umple pentru a acoperii frunzele de telina.
In fiecare dimineata, timp de cateva zile, se deschide capacul borcanului si se apasa interiorul pentru vanturare. Daca exista o spuma alba deasupra, aceasta se inlatura.
Dupa cca. o saptamana se inchide borcanul si se pastreaza la rece in camara pana se mureaza complet.
Cantitatile de legume sunt pentru orientare.
