Ingredients
- apples of winter varieties - 13-16 pcs.
- bottled water - 1.5 l
- granulated sugar - 60 g
- table salt - 10 g
- blackcurrant leaves - 20-30 pcs.
- cherry leaves - 20-30 pcs.
Step cooking
- Pour one and a half liters of bottled water into a suitable pan.
- Pour 60 g of granulated sugar and 10 g of salt there.
- We wait until the liquid boils, and then boil it over medium heat for 3 minutes until the grains of dry ingredients are completely dissolved. We leave the finished syrup in a cool place so that it cools down to room temperature.
- I thoroughly wash a three-liter glass jar, then pour over boiling water and let it dry.
- Cover the bottom of the jar with currant and cherry leaves, approximately 10-15 pieces.
- On top of the leaves, tightly lay 13-16 washed apples of winter varieties. Fruits should be whole, not broken, not rotten and not wormy.
- On top of the fruits, we again form a layer of blackcurrant and cherry leaves.
- Pour the cooled syrup into the jar over the leaves and cover the vessel with a capron lid or gauze cloth folded in 3-4 layers.
- We leave apples in this form at room temperature for exactly a week.
- After a week, we put the fermented fruit in a cold place (balcony, refrigerator, cellar) for 40-45 days. During this time, make sure that the jar is filled with syrup to the very neck, otherwise the upper fruits will darken. After the specified period, open the jar, take out the pickled apples and serve them on the table.
