Спасибо Фиме с осинки

 Готовятся помидорки ОЧЕНЬ просто:
Рекомендуются длинненькие плоды, но вообще и из любых вкусно - из обычных, из микадо, из длинных...
2 - 2, 5 кг помидоров, пучок сельдерея, 2 ст. л соли, 1 ст. л сахара, 5-6 зубчиков чеснока, 1,5 л воды.
Помидоры залить кипятком и тут же обдать холодной водой. Очистить кожицу, сложить в банку вместе с сельдереем и чесноком. Залить кипящим рассолом (вода + соль + сахар).
Через 10-12 часов помидоры готовы! А почему эротические, спросите вы? Так мы ж их раздели... Помидоры ню, так сказать!



Девочки, помидоры удивительно вкусные!! Главное НЕ добавлять никаких других специй, только сельдерей и чеснок, соль и сахар. Готовятся они очень быстро, через 10-12 часов уже можно кушать. Но если постоят ешё сутки-другие, то это вообще НЕЧТО!!
 

Ой, я в восторге!!!!! Наткнулась на вот такое богатство, Загляните, там очень много интересностей..... Много много много всего интересного!!!!!!

Jacques Crusteau

By Katie Park

Like most four-year old girls, my daughter Sophia lives in a constant state of imaginary play. Even the most ordinary things are extraordinary. Everything is sunshine and rainbows. I love this about her, and often wished I lived in "Sophia's world".

Jacques was inspired by a trip to the grocery store, where I watched Sophia have an imaginary conversation with the lobsters in the tank by the seafood counter. For her, even something as odd and spiny as a lobster is cute and friendworthy.
