Working time approx. 45 minutes; Total time approx. 45 minutes

Wash the cucumbers and soak them in salted water (75g salt per 1L of water) for 12 hours. Brush thoroughly, rinse again, and dry. Cut the cauliflower into florets and wash. Peel and wash the beans, then slice them once or twice, depending on their size. Peel and wash the carrots and slice them (if necessary, using a slicing knife). Cook the vegetables (except the cucumbers) one after the other in the water used for the cucumbers until almost tender. Then layer everything in jars with diced horseradish, pearl onions, bay leaves, peppercorns, and cloves. Bring the vinegar, water, sugar, and salt to a boil and set aside. Stir in the preserving agent and pour it over the mixed pickles while still hot. Close the jars (do not overcook). The mixed pickles are ready to eat after about 4 weeks.
