Tomato salad with onions for the winter is the very case when, after spending a little time in the summer, in winter you can enjoy the taste and aroma of your favorite snack. Tomatoes can be taken seasonal varieties – larger and juicy, fleshy, or small (cream or even cherry).

If desired, you can add a little more sugar to the marinade and make the salad sweetish – this option is not for everyone, however, it also has a place to be. Having prepared such an appetizer several times, you can independently choose the optimal ratio of salt and sugar.

Ingredients:

  • Tomatoes – 600 g.
  • Onion (medium size) – 600 g.
  • Bay leaf – 3-4 pcs.
  • Garlic – 3-4 cloves.
  • Black pepper – 7-8 peas.
  • Water – 400 ml.
  • Sugar – 2 tsp (under the knife).
  • Salt – 1 tsp (under the knife).
  • Vegetable oil – 4 tbsp. l.
  • Table vinegar 9% – 2 tbsp. l.

3. Sterilize salad jars in the usual way for yourself (calcined in the oven, hold over a pot of boiling water). At the bottom of each jar, throw 1-2 bay leaves, 1-2 peeled garlic cloves, and peppercorns.
