To prepare your baby for an independent life, you should start from the cradle. It only seems that the little one will be a "hindrance" for mom while she is preparing dinner. In fact, a two-year-old can already be entrusted with beating eggs, for example. Or sifting flour. A 5-year-old child is already a more experienced helper. He is able to mix salad, decorate a dish, and mold dumplings. Well, a child over 8 years old can already be allowed near the stove. But only under the supervision of mom! The main thing is to choose the right dish.

Your attention - best recipes for young chefs!

• Sliced ​​ham and salami.
• Sliced ​​cheese.
• Greenery.

As well as pickles, olives and boiled carrots (which mom will pre-cut into circles).

There are no cooking instructions. Because in this case, everything depends only on the child's imagination (and the mother who helps him). As you know, food should not only be healthy and tasty, but also ... aesthetically pleasing. And already on sandwiches, there is where fantasies roam - mice, cats, smeshariki, sea themes and much more.

We stock up on grocery "materials" and go ahead to creativity!

Crispy cucumbers in a tub - getting ready for a delicious winter

4. We take 1/3 of the spices and cover the bottom of the previously prepared tub with them. Next - a layer of cucumbers, which must be stacked as tightly and vertically as possible ("standing"). Then another layer of spices and another layer of cucumbers. After that, all the cucumber beauty is covered with the rest of the spices, and on top of them we lay out horseradish leaves.
5. Above - oppression, on which the load is placed. And only then we pour everything with brine. How to do it? In water cooled down after boiling (warm, 2 l), dissolve 140 g of salt and pour our cucumbers so that they are completely covered with brine.

It is done. Cover with a lid and forget about cucumbers for a couple of days, leaving the "dish" in the kitchen or room.

On the 3rd day, as soon as the initial fermentation process has started, we hide the tub where it is dark and cool, for at least a month.
