00:03Greetings, today we are making okra preserves. I have previously given you two different preserve recipes.
00:10This is the third version made with okra, hopefully you'll like it too. Here are some of my okra.
00:17Let's show you, I cleaned these, but it took quite a long time to clean them. To adjust the sourness, I used unripe grapes.
00:24We'll make the water natural. I picked some tomatoes from that vine over there, we'll start right away.
00:33What should we do? We need to sour these right away. First, let's wash them and then sour them. I haven't washed them yet.
00:42I didn't wash it so it wouldn't drool, I'll wash it right now at the tap. Come on, let's all wash it together!
00:48Let's wash this bowl right away. I brought it; we'll give it a good wash so all the dirt and grime is gone.
01:09I'll put the things I washed into this container. Subscribe, subscribe, subscribe, subscribe, subscribe, subscribe, subscribe, subscribe
01:25be like this
01:28Look, the remaining parts are still in the water; I'll wash them a few times and it'll be fine.
01:52Look, as soon as I washed him, he started releasing his snot, but never mind, there's a solution for that, right now, what you see here...
02:01These grapes are sour grapes, meaning they're not yet ripe, unripe grapes. I'm going to squeeze them now with my hand.
02:08I'll get out and pour the water over the okra, we'll start right away. Let me grab my bowl...
02:17I was going to grate the tomatoes, but I chopped the grapes, look, I poured the grapes over them, as you can see they're green.
02:27These are sour grapes, right now, like this, we're going to squeeze them with all our might to extract their sour juice.
02:41Otherwise, I'll use lemon juice, or if that's not available, lemon juice or vinegar will do. I'm going to make it with unripe grape juice now.
02:54Naturally, I'm just popping these.
03:03Yes, we crushed them nicely, take a look, I extracted the sour juices. Now, what are we going to do? Let's strain it and pour it away.
03:14I can find this easily, look, we're pouring this sour water in and mixing it. This sour water will prevent it from stretching.
03:31We'll add a little more to the underdeveloped area, let's see if it's a bit thicker.
03:45And I stirred it again, added a little more sourness, that's enough now, let this sourness stay in the water.
04:09Let's start grating the tomatoes right away. I've got the bowl, we'll put it here.
04:19We washed and prepared it beforehand, now we grate it from somewhere right here, like this, just like that.
04:32The skins will separate anyway, we'll grate our tomatoes like this. I've prepared seven tomatoes here.
04:41That's enough, because we don't have much okra either. Yes, I grated the tomatoes, as I said, friends.
04:53Seven tomatoes are enough, like that. Because there aren't many okra, by the way, I'm wondering how much okra there is.
05:01I don't know if it will happen, because our relative usually plants okra and he gave me some when I went to visit.
05:10But I don't know exactly how much, maybe two kilos at best, I don't know if it's more, we even cooked some of it.
05:15We've eaten these before, so I thought I'd make some winter preserves. So what do we do right away? We light the stove!
05:22We're starting to prepare our preserves. Let's go! Yes, I've put that nice black pot here again on my stove.
05:29I'll light it and we'll start preparing our preserves. I brought our wooden planks with me, let's light them right away.
05:39I lit a fire here, don't let it burn. Now I'm pouring our tomatoes into the pot. We're not adding any oil or anything like that; we're just going to boil and cook these tomatoes a bit.
06:02So it started slowly
06:06It's heated up, it's boiling, it's boiling a little, it's boiling a little, let's see, let's see, now our tomatoes are boiling, our stove is burning quite fast, folks.
06:22Yes, it will boil for about five minutes. See, it boils quickly. I poured it into this bowl so it's easier to pour. I'm immediately adding the okra.
06:33When we pour this tomato sauce over the okra, we're going to coat them with tomato sauce.
06:47Let's mix it like this, let's mix it like this, let's mix it like this, let's mix it like this. The heat was too much, I poured some aside, let's mix it.
06:59Because it burns extremely quickly like this, let it boil a little, then I'll add a tiny bit of salt. I'll add just a little salt, not too much.
07:13I add enough salt so I can't say I didn't add any.
07:20Now let them soak up the sauce nicely.
07:23But you know, it will immediately draw you in.
07:29We'll boil it for 5 to 10 minutes, folks, so it shouldn't be overcooked or undercooked.
07:36Yes, look what happened, the tomatoes cooked beautifully, they absorbed a lot of the water in the baths, like sponges, just like the tomatoes themselves.
07:50As I said, we shouldn't melt too much.
07:53I'm going to fill the jars right now, while they're hot, without taking them off the heat. I'll fill the jars right now, I've got this jar...
08:04These half-kilogram jars won't hold much weight anyway, so I'm filling them like this.
08:13I filled it up as much as it could hold, adjusting it to the eye level; let's fill it up another half kilo.
08:23We fill it immediately while it's hot; we don't wait for it to be ready.
08:31I'm filling these out too.
08:33We fill these up too, they're quite large though.
08:35a bit huge though
08:36I'm adding a huge amount to the dirt.
08:45Yes, this one is full, there needs to be another half kilo.
08:48Put this in this jar too.
08:56I'll download it right now, let's download it from January.
09:08I took it down right away and I'll fill the rest too. In total, I got 4 half-kilogram jars, guys.
09:20Let's fill it up like this. Look, there are one or two spoonfuls left here. I'm going to distribute them all right away.
09:30But in total, four half-kilogram cans of honey came out. Okay.
09:44Look, I've distributed them all right now, we're turning it off without letting it cool down.
09:53Let's delete this part; I'm using a zero-cap.
10:02Because second-hand covers can cause some problems, it's always best to use brand new covers whenever possible.
10:11For about 10 bottle caps, it costs around 35 lira, and they take their daughters for a pittance.
10:17Now we'll close it more tightly using a cloth, two steps back, one step forward.
10:27Look, you need to close it very tightly. Let me show you.
10:35Now we have two steps back and one step forward, we're using our strength to close this one in the same way.
10:51three and this square jar
10:54And this square jar, I don't know if it weighs half a kilo or more.
10:56That's probably half a kilo too.
11:00Yes, we've closed that one too, and now we're turning it over right away to be sure.
11:05It will hold like this, but since we're not boiling the jars, we need to use this guaranteed method.
11:17Yes, our canned goods are ready!
11:24Yes, I prepared the okra preserves; we got four half-kilogram jars, but I got extremely hot and was sweating profusely.
11:35I sweated a lot. As they say, no pain, no gain.
11:39We put in a lot of effort to prepare the preserves, but oh well.
11:43They say winter is reckless, whatever you make is edible, but it turned out really well.
11:47Let the jars sit outside until they cool down, which is tonight.
11:52You will wait, then place it in a place where it doesn't get sunlight, turn it upside down so that...
11:58If the lids are collapsing inwards, it means it's already sealed.
12:01But if it hasn't collapsed, if it's flowing, immediately use it as food.
12:06Don't leave them waiting, they won't spoil. Four half-kilogram bottles like this in one day.
12:11We have prepared canned okra; this is the third method I have shown you.
12:17I also showed two other methods of canning; this is the easiest one.
12:22These recipes are so simple that anyone can make them and everyone can try them out.
12:28They should make winter preparations and consume plenty of foods that taste as fresh as summer during the winter months.
12:36Here's a close-up showing how our okra preserve with plenty of tomatoes is ready, friends!
12:43How do you cook this preserve in the winter months? You will chop onions and peppers into a pot.
12:50You'll sauté it nicely in oil, and add a little tomato paste. I generally don't cook without tomato paste; I usually like it with tomato paste.
12:58If you don't like it, don't put it in. Of course, you'll just pour it over the jar afterwards; don't wash it at all.
13:04Because they've cooked nicely, you'll pour them into a pot, add a little water to the onions and peppers.
13:12You will check the salt level; if it's not enough, you can add a little more salt. Boil for 5 minutes.
13:21Your okra dish will be ready! I hope you enjoyed it. You can also check out my other okra preserve videos.
13:28I'll leave the links in the description section, guys, you'll see them there if you go to the description.
13:36You'll see the links here, and I'll add them one by one to the suggested sections so everyone can evaluate them.
13:44Let's make plenty of these delicious summer vegetables and save them for winter. Okay, that's all from me for now, I'm ending my video here.
