It's September already! The garden beds are slowly emptying. Almost all the harvest is harvested, but the eggplants still hang on completely green bushes and delight with their elastic glossy fruits. And they would be happy, but the nights are getting colder, the days are rainy. The sun is hiding somewhere behind the clouds. So it's time to collect these vegetables as well.

Of course, we will cook something delicious out of them, for example saute, or bake deliciously in the oven. But you can't eat them all at once. Therefore, we will harvest the remaining vegetables for the winter. And we will cook very much today delicious appetizer, which was named "Eggplants like mushrooms".

I can't say with complete certainty where this name came from. I only know that this is how this winter salad, or an appetizer (who as they call it) for a long time. So one of my recipes in this topic is over 30 years old. He appeared with me so long ago that it seems that he is generally from some other life of mine. Today I will definitely share it.

In general, these salads are distinguished by the fact that they are not at all difficult to prepare. On other blanks from "blue", as we affectionately call eggplants, it takes much longer. One hundred thousand is worth, there each piece must be separately fried in oil. Then to prepare the filling, to shift everything in layers ... In general, a long work.

Either a large amount of other ingredients is required, mainly vegetables, which take a long time heat treatment... This is how many salads and the famous eggplant caviar are prepared.

The methods proposed today are distinguished by the fact that when preparing a salad, basically, except for eggplants and onions, nothing else is added from vegetables. In our selection, such a recipe is in the first place. It is the most popular and frequently met. It can even be called classic.

But I will still share with you other recipes where the ingredients will contain bell peppers and even mayonnaise. These options are also very good. And if you like "little blue" ones, you can cook them in different versions. Although they all have the same name, they all have different tastes, unlike any other.

Eggplant like mushrooms - the best quick and tasty recipe for the winter

This recipe is the simplest of all the options proposed today. It differs from others in that you can prepare a salad on it quite quickly. But it invariably turns out to be tasty and never stays for the next period. That is why it is the most sought after of all the other salads in this category.

The ingredients are also simple. And mostly eggplant, garlic, fresh herbs and hot peppers, which are already added as desired.

We need:

  • eggplant - 1.5 kg
  • garlic - 2 heads
  • dill - 1 bunch
  • hot peppers - to taste and desire
  • vegetable oil - 80 ml
  • vinegar 9% - 70 gr
  • salt - 1.5 tbsp. spoons

Preparation:

1. Wash the eggplants and cut off the stalk. Then cut them into large cubes, or give them a slightly elongated shape. By and large, it does not matter at all how we cut them - you can cut them into cubes, circles, as you like.

2. Pour water into a large saucepan so that the volume is about half the capacity. Put it on fire and cover with a lid so that it boils quickly.

3. Dip the sliced ​​eggplants into boiling water. Boiling will stop for a while, but to help it resume quickly, you can cover the pot with a lid, leaving a small hole on top to allow steam to escape.

As soon as the water boils again, the lid should be removed.

4. Cook the cut pieces for 5 minutes. During this time periodically move content from top to bottom. The fact is that the fruits themselves are very light, and they all immediately rise to the surface. And if the lower pieces are boiled, then the upper ones will lie on the lower ones with practically no water. And it is important for us to boil them all evenly. Therefore, it is necessary to move them lightly, or figuratively speaking, "bathe" in boiling water.

5. During the boil, the water will begin to darken slightly, the skin from the fruit will give it a dark color. Along with the color, bitterness will also come out of the skin and pulp. As you know, eggplants have a slight bitterness, which can interfere with the taste perception of the dish as a whole. And so they are either boiled or sprinkled with salt and allowed to stand for a while. Then washed.

Also, during the cooking process, the pieces will become, as it were, translucent, especially this will be clearly visible on the pulp. When they have achieved such a state, we can assume that they are ready and the water can be drained.

It is better to drain it through a colander. Then let it stand for a while so that all the leftovers will merge.

6. In the meantime, let's start preparing the dressing. To do this, chop the dill and chop the garlic. It is better to chop the garlic, rather than crush it through a press. In this form, the appetizer will look better. But it is not necessary to cut it coarsely so that he can give all his juice to the eggplant. And at the same time, it is important that the fermentation process does not begin in the jar. The sterilization time will be quite short.

7. If you like spicy snacks, then add hot peppers, cut into rings. It is best if the pod is red. This is at least a little, but will add bright colors to the overall picture.

The amount of pepper can be adjusted. There is no specific dosage. It all depends on the taste and pungency of the product.

8. Add odorless vegetable oil, vinegar and salt. To mix everything.

9. Put the eggplants from a colander into a large bowl or basin. Put the dressing to them and mix. In order not to spoil appearance snacks, you can stir the contents with your hands. Or use a plastic spoon or a spatula.

But in any case, stir gently so as not to turn the contents into porridge.

10. Leave for a while, so that the ingredients are saturated with each other's juices.

11. In the meantime, wash and sterilize the jars and lids. For a given amount of ingredients, we need 3 1/2 liter containers. Turn the jars upside down so that the glass is water.

12. Then mix the contents of the basin again and put everything in the jars. Try to lay out in such a way that air sinuses do not form inside, that is, quite tightly. For this, the contents can be lightly pressed with a spoon.

If, nevertheless, a bubble is hidden somewhere - another air, then stick a handle from a tablespoon to this place. The bubble will immediately jump out.

13. Cover the filled jars with lids.

14. Pour into a large saucepan warm water, you can directly from the tap. Lay a napkin at the bottom and put jars on it.

The water should reach the shoulders of the jar. If you pour more of it than is necessary, it will spill out during the boil and may fall under the lid. If there is less water than it should be, then only the lower part of the can will be sterilized, and the appetizer on top will remain raw. Which can lead to the occurrence of fermentation processes. As a result, the lid is lifted. It will not be possible to eat such preservation.

Turn on the gas and wait for the water to boil. From this moment you need to time the time. For sterilization, we will need 25 - 30 minutes, this is for half liter cans. From the moment of boiling, it will no longer be possible to open the lid. If this happens by accident at one of the moments, then the bank will need to be sterilized again.

I have come across recipes where it is proposed to sterilize by liter cans only 15 minutes. I think that this time is not enough. Eggplants are quite a capricious product, and preparations that have not undergone proper sterilization quite often "explode". This year alone, my brother lost 10 cans of sauté because he decided to sterilize them for only 15 minutes.

If we at least boiled the "blue" ones, then we still have raw garlic and dill. Will he have time to warm up and steam in 15 minutes. I always insure myself in such cases, and sterilize longer. That is given view lettuce - 25 - 30 minutes for half liter jars.

Accordingly, 650, 750 gram cans should be sterilized for 40 - 45 minutes, and liter cans - 1 hour.

By the way, this does not affect the quality of the salad. It does not become overcooked.

15. Remove the cans one at a time and tighten the lids with a seaming machine. Then turn the filled and swirled containers upside down. Thoroughly wrap with a blanket, blanket, or something else, but always warm.

Leave in this position for a day. If the conservation is well covered, then even after a day it will be still warm. And this is good! During this period, the process of sterilization and salting continues inside.

16. When the jars are completely cool, they can be turned over to their normal position. Then put away in a dark, cool place for storage.

As a rule, such a blank is stored very well! And when you open the jar for a holiday, or just for dinner, the contents are always pleasing with their amazing taste.

Eggplants like mushrooms - recipe "Lick your fingers" without sterilization

This recipe has occupied an honorable place in my piggy bank for about 30 years now. It appeared in my recipe book when I just started experimenting with blanks. I don’t even remember who shared it with me. But nevertheless, the recipe stuck, and I harvest eggplant this way to this day.

A distinctive feature of this recipe is that it is cooked in the oven and, as it were, is not sterilized. But this is probably not entirely true statement. It would be more correct to assume that while preparing, he is sterilized. That is, both processes occur simultaneously.

We need:

  • eggplant - 2.5 kg
  • onions - 1 kg
  • bell pepper - 700 - 750 gr
  • garlic - 1 head
  • dill - 2 bunches
  • vegetable oil - 250 ml (1 glass)
  • salt to taste
  • ground black pepper - to taste
  • vinegar essence - 1 tsp

Preparation:

1. Wash the eggplants and cut off the stalk. Leave them intact.

2. Pour about half of the water into a large saucepan and bring to a boil. Pour in salt, boiling water should be cool salty. Lay out the whole batch of eggplants. All of them will immediately surface. But it does not matter, we will close the pan with a lid and they will not only boil, but also steamed.

The time they are kept in boiling water is 5 minutes. Do not hold any more, otherwise they will become unnecessarily soft. During these 5 minutes, stir them once with a slotted spoon so that both the top and bottom are boiled. Although, of course, they will not want to roll over. The bottom was already saturated with water and became heavy, and the top was left without water, therefore it is light. Therefore, you need to close the vegetables with a lid.

3. When the time is up, immediately get the "blue" ones. Try not to hesitate so as not to overcook the vegetables. If they are digested, then when they lie down, they wrinkle. And it will be very difficult to cut them neatly. Place in a bowl or on a tray and allow to cool. In the meantime, put the next batch in a saucepan.

4. In between, while we were idle, you can peel the garlic and chop the dill. It is better to cut the coarse stems of dill, only soft branches are needed. If coarse stems predominate, then take another half of the bunch so that there is enough. In any case, it will not be superfluous.

5. Peel the bell pepper from the stalk and from the seeds. You can use any color, but if you take bright yellow and red vegetables, then the salad will look more fun and much more positive.

Cut the pepper into strips. To do this, cut it lengthwise into 4 parts, and then crosswise with straws, no more than 0.5 cm thick.

6. Cut the onion into half rings, as thin as possible.

7. When the eggplants are completely cool, they must also be cut. Do not be alarmed that their skin is covered with a white coating in places. This is salt. You can cut vegetables arbitrarily. If they are not very large in size, then you can cut them into 6 - 8 pieces. If they are larger, then cut into pieces, about 3 cm long and 1.5 - 2 wide.

8. Put the chopped vegetables in a bowl, add bell pepper, garlic and dill to them. To mix everything. Better with your hands... Pepper to taste. Salt should usually be sufficient. But if you think that it is not enough, then add a little. And to find out if you need salt or not, try a slice of eggplant.

Stir gently again so that the loose ingredients are evenly distributed throughout the mass.

9. And only then add oil and vinegar. Then stir again. Leave on for 20 to 30 minutes to dissolve all the ingredients.

10. Wash and sterilize cans and lids. Eggplants are quite capricious in conservation, and therefore it is better to use metal lids for rolling with a machine.

11. Fill the jars with the prepared mixture. Try to distribute the liquid evenly over all the jars. The cans will need to be prepared about 5 - 6 pieces of half a liter.

12. Put the filled and covered jars into the oven and set the temperature to 140 - 150 degrees. Leave the jars in the oven for 1 hour. This is the preparation and sterilization time at the same time.

13. The workpieces should be taken out with special kitchen gloves very carefully, one at a time. And then tighten the lid with a seaming machine. Self-tightening lids can also be used. But the first option will still be more reliable, especially when you store preservation in an apartment.

14. Turn over the jars with the contents, placing them on the lid. Cover with something warm and leave in this position for a day, or even more.

After that, turn over to their usual position. Store in a cool, dark place.

Eggplants for the winter, like mushrooms - video recipe

According to this recipe, the salad takes a little longer to cook than the usual one, but it turns out to be very tasty. Therefore, it is worth taking the time to cook it.

The preparation itself goes on as usual and takes almost the same amount of time as in other options. But in this case, it takes time to insist. And the author of the recipe suggests two days for this.

It is precisely for so many days that the cooking time increases.

I liked this recipe not only because of its taste, but also because it turns out to be very bright and beautiful. It contains all the colors of autumn. Having opened such a jar of salad in winter, we will delight ourselves and our loved ones not only with its taste characteristics, but also with its appearance.

Eggplant fried like mushrooms for the winter with mayonnaise and mushroom seasoning

Such a salad can be prepared and eaten immediately, or you can prepare it for the winter. It turns out to be very high-calorie and satisfying, since it contains mayonnaise. In addition, all the main ingredients are fried in vegetable oil.

But despite its nutritional value, this salad has a ton of fans, and therefore we will also give it due attention.

We need:

  • eggplant - 2.5 kg
  • onion - 750 gr
  • mayonnaise - 400 gr
  • mushroom seasoning - half a pack
  • vegetable oil for frying

Preparation:

Large eggplants can be used to prepare the salad.

1. They should be washed, stalked and peeled. Then cut into cubes with a side no more than 2 cm.

2. Place all chopped pieces in a large saucepan and pour over cold water... Put on fire and bring to a boil. Cook with stirring for 7 to 10 minutes.

If the pan is small, or you want to cook the pieces in double the size, then you can cook in two pots at once. Or in one, but two parties.

There are also ways in which vegetables are dipped immediately into boiling water. This method was already described in the previous recipes, and I decided to change it. Although in this recipe it can also be used.

3. Let the prepared eggplants lie for another 3 - 4 minutes in boiling water, then put them in a colander and drain all the water.

4. In the meantime, peel and cut the onion into half rings. Try to cut it thinner so that it does not crunch on your teeth later. Many people don't like this.

5. Pour a little vegetable oil into a large frying pan, about 4 - 5 tablespoons, or a little more, if you are not afraid to add a lot of oil to the dishes. Let it warm and put the onion in the pan. Fry it over high heat until tender.

Readiness is determined by the fact that the onion has become limp, almost halved in size, or even more, and has become translucent. In this case, it is not necessary to allow it to blush. Due to the presence of mayonnaise, the color of the salad will turn out in white tones. And it is not necessary for the onion to stand out for its "tan".

And to obtain such a state, the onion will need to be on fire for about 10 minutes. During this time, you need to stir it more often. Especially when it's almost ready.

6. Put the finished onion in a large saucepan or bowl, that is, where we will collect all the ingredients for the salad.

7. There is no need to wash the pan, add a little oil, about three tablespoons to it, let it warm up. Lay out the eggplants, from which all the water has already been drained by that time. Fry them over medium heat with stirring for 10 minutes. They, like onions, should not blush too much.

If all the eggplants do not fit in the pan, then they can be fried in separate batches.

8. Put the "blue" fried in this way to the onion. To mix everything.

9. Now you can simply add mayonnaise and that will be all the ingredients for today. But we decided to create a truly mushroom flavor, so let's add mushroom seasoning. We only need half a pack. Instead of such a seasoning, you can also use Maggi cubes with a mushroom flavor.

Just pour the contents of half a pack into the resulting mixture. If you use a cube, then it must first be crumbled thoroughly.

You can, by the way, use your own dried mushroom mixture. But this must be prepared in advance. I always have this kind of powder. When we go to pick mushrooms, we will certainly dry some of them. This is the so-called substandard: very large mushrooms, separate legs, or caps, just clumsy specimens.

After drying, I grind the mushrooms into powder and add them to various dishes. This mushroom addition enriches any dish prepared with it.

As you have noticed, we do not use salt in the recipe. Seasoning, like mayonnaise, is already salty. And as a rule, you don't need to add salt at all. But, if you like spicy salads, you can add a little ground black pepper.

10. Gently mix the mixture. Then add mayonnaise. Try to take it with all-natural ingredients, without any GMOs or other harmful food additives.

Or make your own mayonnaise.

11. Once again, this time for the last time, mix everything and put it in sterilized jars. You should have approximately 5 half liter jars. Well, there will be a little bit left to try.

It is necessary to lay the mass tightly, without leaving the air sinuses inside. To do this, lightly press down the contents with a spoon.

12. Pour warm water into a large saucepan, line the bottom with a napkin. Put the cans in the water, it should reach exactly to their shoulders. Cover them with lids, also sterilized. Bring water to a boil.

13. To sterilize half-liter jars should be 30 minutes, if the jars are 650 grams, then 40 - 45 minutes. And if liter, then exactly 1 hour.

14. Tighten the covers with a seaming machine. Turn the jars upside down and cover with a warm blanket. Leave in this position until the contents have completely cooled. This is at least a day.

Then store in a cool, dark place.

Serve as a salad, or as an appetizer for any lunch or dinner, as well as treat guests at the festive table.

These are our various recipes today. Sometimes they ask - "Is it true that eggplant tastes like mushrooms?" Maybe I'll upset you a little, but the taste is not the same as that of canned mushrooms... And it doesn't even work out the same as with salted mushrooms. Perhaps the appetizer got this name because of the cooking method, which is a bit similar in both cases.

But I can also please you. The taste of such salads is simply incredible. And it is not for nothing that they are referred to the category of dishes "You will lick your fingers."

Therefore, be sure to prepare at least a few jars. In winter, you will delight yourself and your loved ones with such a wonderful gift from the fall. And I am sure that next year, you will come back to this recipe again, and prepare such yummy even more, and even in different versions.

Foreword

Eggplants are one of the most desirable vegetables on the summer-autumn table. To make them available and make us happy in winter, they are preserved. One of the favorite recipes in the article.

Regardless of the recipe for making mushroom-flavored eggplants, this vegetable must first go through certain stages of primary processing. Of course, it must be washed first. Then the stem (tail) is cut off from him. After that, the vegetables are cut into separate pieces. Each hostess chooses her own way:

  • lengthwise into 4 pieces (slices), which are then cut across, as a rule, into 3-4 pieces or more - it depends on the size of the eggplant;
  • first into circles of 1.5-2 cm thick, which are then cut into 4 parts;
  • into small cubes;
  • large vegetables into 4 parts, and smaller ones by 2.

After that, bitterness must be removed from the eggplant. If during canning it will be necessary to fry vegetables in vegetable oil, then they should be poured with salted water. Eggplants are saturated with moisture and sweat, when heat treatment, absorb less fat. Therefore, vegetables are placed for 30-60 minutes in a container with brine, which is prepared on the basis that 1 liter of salt water should contain 2 tbsp. spoons.

Another option for removing bitterness from eggplants: cover them with salt and leave so for 2 hours. In both cases, after salt treatment, the vegetables must be thoroughly rinsed with water. If this is not done well enough, then some of the remaining salt can then affect the taste of the canned product. Water should drain from the washed vegetables. After that, the eggplants are ready for further processing.

Before serving, it is advisable to cut into small pieces, and then add herbs, garlic, onion and sunflower oil... The taste of the dish will be like pickled mushrooms.

We prepare vegetables for pickling, as above, pass the garlic through a press, chop the pepper, and sterilize the jars. Then pour water into a saucepan and add salt. We bring the future marinade to a boil, and then pour vinegar into it and let it boil again. We send prepared eggplants to a boiling marinade. We cook the future "false mushrooms" for 3-4 minutes. Remove the eggplant from the pan and drain the marinade.

We send vegetables to a saucepan with vegetable oil heated to a boil. Fry them for about 3 minutes. Then add garlic and pepper to the saucepan. We fry the vegetables for another 1 minute, after which we lay them tightly in the jars while still hot. We close the containers with lids, turn them over, wrap them with a warm towel or blanket and leave them to stand until they cool completely. Finished eggplants can be stored even under conditions room temperature, but they must be placed in a dark place. They are ready for serving in a couple of days.

When preparing the marinade, salt is added to taste. First, in 1 liter of water you need to pour 60 g. After the salt is completely dissolved, the marinade is tasted. The brine should taste good, rather salty, but not oversalted. Add salt if necessary. You can also close the jars with ordinary plastic lids, but they must be very tight and airtight.

Another simple recipe for canning eggplants, which, after cooking, are almost indistinguishable from pickled mushrooms to taste. For him you need:

  • eggplant - 3 kg;
  • garlic (heads) - 1 pc;
  • bay leaf - at the discretion of the hostess;
  • salt (not iodized) - 0.5 tbsp. spoons;
  • vinegar - 150 ml;
  • water - 2.5 liters.

We prepare vegetables (as at the beginning of the article), chop the garlic, and sterilize jars with a capacity of 0.5 liters. Then we make the marinade - pour water (2.5 l) into a four-liter saucepan, add: vinegar, bay leaf and salt. After that, put the pan on the stove and heat the resulting brine to a boil.

Cook the eggplants in a boiling marinade for 10-15 minutes. Since all 3 kg of vegetables will not immediately fit in the pan, they must be cooked in the same brine in batches (in parts). After that, remove the eggplants from the marinade with a slotted spoon and put them tightly in the jars. Put garlic on top of each container with vegetables (1-2 cloves). Then pour hot brine into the jars. We roll up the containers with lids, turn them upside down and wrap them in a warm blanket. Banks should stand like this until they cool completely. They are then stored in a cool, but not damp, dark place. According to this recipe, there are 7-8 containers of 0.5 liters of canned eggplants.

Eggplants are the best for homemade preparations, or as they like to call them - "blue". They do not possess bright taste, but differ in friable pulp and high hygroscopic properties. Any prepared marinade vegetable absorbs and is enriched with its taste characteristics.

Eggplants marinated under mushrooms - the best way snacks for the winter. False mushrooms can be cooked in different ways: some like to add an egg to them, while others like garlic.

Choosing the right eggplant for seaming

The taste of any dish depends on the selection of products... For preparations for the winter, it is worth purchasing young vegetables without hard pulp and with unripe seeds. Suitable for recipes are bright purple eggplants with firm and smooth skin. The shape does not matter, so you can buy oval, ovoid and cylindrical fruits.

When picking vegetables, you need to look closely for the presence of brown spots, indicating the beginning of spoilage. Old vegetables give out a gray-green and brown shade of a fruit with a brown stalk.

Regardless of the selected variety, the vegetable lends itself to stewing, boiling and roasting. However, there are species that are subject only to stuffing and freezing for the winter.
