If the pickled cucumbers turned out to be very sour, and the salted ones were oversalted, you should still not rush to throw away the blanks.

We will not tell you why this happened. Let's tell you better how to save the workpiece, on which time and effort were spent.

How to act

1. Transfer the cucumbers from the can into a colander and rinse in cold water.

2. The brine or unsuccessful marinade should be poured out, the jar should be rinsed.

3. Transfer the cucumbers back and prepare a new brine.

4. To do this, take the required amount of water and dissolve sugar in it. Consumption is as follows: 25 g of sugar per 1 liter of boiled and cooled water.

5. Stir the sugar, and when it dissolves completely, pour the cucumbers and leave for a day at room temperature.

Then you can close the jar and put the preparation in the refrigerator.

Due to sugar, salt and acid will not be felt so sharply.

Similarly, you can correct the taste of tomatoes, but for this you need to take twice as much sugar for the same amount of water.
