  3. Meanwhile, sterilize the jars and lids. I most often sterilize the jars over steam and boil the lids directly in the saucepan.
  4. Then chop the cucumbers into long strips or cubes. Grate the peeled carrots using a grater for Korean products. Mix carrots with cucumbers, squeeze lightly with your hands. Place the vegetable mixture into clean jars. Leave a little space on top - the vegetables will still release their juice.
  5. Heat the marinade again until it boils, and carefully pour it over the cucumbers and carrots in the jars almost to the neck. Roll up the lids. Turn the jars over and wrap them up. Let them sit until they cool down.

Korean cucumbers for the winter with carrots are ready! Store them in a cool place.
