30 servings
90 minutes
Salad of sweet peppers, tomatoes, and carrots for winter is a bright and flavorful gift of Hungarian cuisine. Its history roots in the traditions of winter preparations when housewives aimed to preserve the summer freshness of vegetables in jars. Sweet pepper adds juiciness and aroma to the dish, tomatoes provide tenderness and acidity, while carrots add a light sweetness. Onions fried to a golden color reveal depth of flavor, and spices harmoniously bind all ingredients together. This salad is perfect as a side dish for meat and fish dishes, complementing them with freshness and spiciness. It also pairs wonderfully with bread and can serve as an independent snack on festive tables. Canned in jars, it will delight you during the winter months, reminding you of warm sunny days.
