Procedura

1. Core the apples², and peel the carrots³ and peppers. Blend the tomatoes¹, apples, carrots, and both peppers into a puree.

2. Sterilize a 0.5 l jar and lid: steam the jar or heat it in the oven at 120 °C for 15 minutes, and boil the lid for 5 minutes.

3. Bring the puree to a boil, then add the oil, sugar, and salt. Simmer over low heat for 50 minutes, stirring often, until the mixture thickens.

4. Press the garlic⁵, add it to the adjika with the vinegar, and heat for 5 minutes.

5. Spoon the hot adjika into the jar up to the rim, cover with the lid, and sterilize in a pot of hot water for 10 minutes from the moment it comes to a boil.

6. Seal, turn upside down, and wrap until cool. Store in a cool, dark place for up to 12 months, and keep an opened jar in the refrigerator for up to 3 weeks.
