Raw milk mushrooms: salting according to the classic recipe


Recipe:

  • raw white or yellow milk mushrooms - 5 kg;
  • coarse salt - 150 g;
  • umbrella dill - 3 umbrellas;
  • horseradish leaf - 2 pcs.;
  • cherry leaf - 11 pcs.;
  • currant leaf - 11 pcs.

Technology:

  1. Mushrooms must be carefully cleaned and processed. Rinse the treated milk mushrooms in multiple waters. Transfer them to a large enamel bowl, a stainless steel container. But never use plastic basins. It is better to take a large metal pan instead of a basin. Pour in salted water and leave to soak for three days. So the bitterness inherent in it will leave the lump and small worms and all the dirt hidden between the plates will emerge.
  2. After three days, the water from the mushrooms must be drained. Rinse the mushrooms thoroughly again.
  3. Next, you need to prepare a large enamel pot. Check it carefully for chips, cracks and rust. Missing one chip can ruin the entire workpiece.
  4. At the bottom of the prepared container, it is necessary to lay currant and cherry leaves. We put dill umbrellas on them. If you like dill, you can safely increase its amount, but without fanaticism, of course. A maximum of five umbrellas - otherwise the taste of the weight will be killed by the aroma of dill. And you will get a mushroom appetizer with the taste of spices and spices - in this case, no one will guess the mushroom.
  5. When all the spices and herbs are laid out on the bottom, we start laying the mushrooms. I put the mushrooms with their caps down - this way more mushrooms enter the pan, and the caps break less. The twist aesthetics are preserved at their best.
  6. Salt the first row of mushrooms. Put the second row on it, adding a dill umbrella on top and salt the mushrooms.
  7. In this order, the entire pan is stacked and filled until the milk mushrooms run out. Sprinkle each layer with salt and spread it over the dill umbrella. There should be a horseradish leaf on top.
  8. After that, cover the pan with a perfectly clean (you can even boil it in advance) with a towel.
  9. On top, you need to put a plate or dish of a suitable diameter (with a diameter less than the diameter of the pan). Do not use metal covers for this. Put oppression on top. Press it down a little.
  10. The pan is moved to the refrigerator, where it waits for 40 days. When the time is right, transfer the milk mushrooms to sterilized, preferably liter jars, and store them in the refrigerator.
  11. The workpiece can be stored for six months. But for more than two months she did not "live" with me even once. Typically, these seals are eaten before the expiration date.

A note to the hostess: do not try to improve the taste of the salty milk mushroom by adding additional spices - they will kill the true taste of the mushroom. As a last resort - a few black peppercorns, a couple of lavrushka leaves and two or three cloves.

  6. Pour the resulting brine into a basin with milk mushrooms. Hold under oppression for 12 hours.
  7. During this time, you will need to remove the milk mushrooms from the brine every four hours. In a colander, rinse them with running water and return to the brine.

As for the specific hot-peppery taste of these mushrooms, our housewives have long learned to get rid of it by preliminary soaking. After reading today's post, you will learn about the existing methods of pickling and salting this product.

The most important nuances

It should be noted that the procurement of milk mushrooms is not as difficult as it might seem at first glance. You just need to familiarize yourself with some of the intricacies of this process. Almost any mushroom is suitable for pickling and salting. The only thing to do initially is to get rid of the old copies. It is also important to ensure that they are not stained or otherwise damaged. Do not use milk mushrooms with wormholes and insects.

It is recommended to rinse mushroom caps with a stiff brush before salting. A steel sponge is best suited for this purpose. To make the harvested product more tender, it is pre-soaked in water, which must be changed every four hours. This simple procedure will get rid of the characteristic bitter taste.

It is advisable to store the finished product in a glass container. You can also use enamelled containers for this. But they must be inspected in advance for cracks, chips and rust. Spoiled pots are not suitable for storing mushrooms. It is important to remember that those cooked more than six months ago are already unusable. In pickled form, they can be stored for no longer than twelve months.

Existing techniques

To date, different methods of harvesting milk mushrooms are known. Salting and pickling are considered the most popular. Dried or frozen mushrooms are of little use for further use.

Most people prefer salting, considering that such milk mushrooms are much tastier than those that have been filled with marinade. Mushrooms prepared in this way are very tasty and pleasantly crispy. However, the second method is also popular with modern housewives, since it is recognized as safer.

After seven days, the milk mushrooms are laid out in pre-sterilized jars, poured with brine, add a tablespoon of vegetable oil and closed with plastic lids. After another three or four weeks, the product is completely ready for use.

Features of the cold method

It should be noted that in this case it is not at all necessary to soak. But if you nevertheless decide to do this, then after three hours a spacious saucepan is filled with four liters of water and, after waiting for it to boil, coarse salt and mushrooms are sent into it. During the cooking process, which will last about twenty minutes, foam may form on the surface, which must be removed.

Meanwhile, the brine is prepared in a separate bowl. To do this, add bay leaves, cloves, salt and two types of peppers to a container of boiling water. At the very end, dill umbrellas are sent to the brine and the stove is immediately turned off.

The cooked milk mushrooms are thrown into a colander so that excess liquid is drained from them, put them in a clean dish and poured with hot brine. To prevent the mushrooms from floating up, they are pressed down with a flat plate on which the press is installed. After that, the container is removed to a cool place.
