For this we will need 1 kg of cabbage, 100 grams of carrots, 200 grams of beets, 5 bay leaves, 10 pieces of ground pepper, 15 grams of salt, 350 grams of grape vinegar. The food is cleaned and cut into long pieces. It is mixed with spices and collected in a jar. Pour grape vinegar on it and close the lid of the jar. Care must be taken to prevent air leakage. And stored in a cool place. Also, make sure that the pickles are local. Vegetables must be washed clean. Acids should be stored in glass containers, not plastic ones. You also need to stay away from pickles that are sold outdoors. Because they are likely to have airborne viruses.
Occasionally, improperly prepared acids and canned foods can cause poisoning.
Poisoning can be caused by home-made pickles, compotes or canned food, and the disease associated with such poisoning is called "botulism". Botulism is a severe food poisoning caused by various types of bacteria and their powerful exotoxins. After canning fruits and vegetables that have not been thoroughly cleaned from microbial contaminated soil, the spores take on a vegetative form and begin to secrete toxins. In recent years, botulism poisoning has been caused only by canned foods at home. To avoid this risk, the fruits and vegetables we buy for canning should be fresh, free of cracks, rot and stalks. Fruits and vegetables should be washed clean under running water and sealed in hot sterilized glass jars and stored in a cool, dry and dark place. Consumers often go to the store and the market to buy acid, and there are points to pay attention to. First of all, it is necessary to stay away from acids sold in the open. This is because the absorption of dirty dust from the outside on the acids sold in the open air, the touch of consumers by hand to taste the acid, etc., leads to the proliferation of microorganisms, which results in poisoning. Consumption of acids sold in plastic containers is also considered dangerous, as repeated use of plastic containers, mixing of acidic tannins with toxic substances in containers can lead to poisoning, and therefore it is necessary to avoid soups sold in plastic containers. It is necessary to pay attention to the lid of the pickles that we will buy in the store, so that the mouth is not swollen or deformed, and at the same time it is necessary to read carefully all the information on the container of pickles.
