Мочёные яблоки, равно как и многие ягоды (cloudberries, lingonberries), - an ancient dish of Russian national cuisine. Fragrant, strong, with a rich sweet-sour taste, the fruits thus harvested perfectly complemented the everyday and festive table, made it richer, more diverse. Therefore, many recipes for canning (urinating) apples, carefully collected by cooks, live and delight us for more than a hundred years.
Training and recommendations
Перед тем как ознакомиться с конкретными ways of conservation, we discuss the general features of the process. First, regardless of whether you plan to harvest drenched apples in wooden barrels, plastic tubs, enameled ware, in jars, the salting recipe recommends using not summer, but later fruits that ripen in the middle and late fall. These include primarily the famous Antonovka, anise, Simirenko, paradise apples. The fact is that the pulp of these varieties is dense, well preserved in brine, does not deteriorate. Secondly, we will determine the dishes. Traditionally, for these purposes they took wooden. But well done and soaked apples in jars. The recipe for preparing containers in this case is easier. Kegs and tubs of wood should be doused with boiling water, soaked. You can simply wash the glass containers thoroughly with a solution of baking soda, then rinse. Thirdly, it is important to maintain cleanliness when washing and laying fruits and spices. Fruits must be ripe, but without traces of blows, wormholes, damage, hard, better than the same size. In this case, they are more evenly soaked by pouring and the more tasty the soaked apples in jars are obtained. The recipe for preserving them (the easiest) is to fill the containers, packaged in containers, with boiled water. But, of course, such a pickle is not as useful as using different berries, herbs and spices. And yet, if the fruit is too large, they can be cut into halves without removing the seeds.
