Several ways to freeze dill for the winter

Before proceeding with the freezing of dill, you need to know several rules:

• Dill, designed for freezing, should be fresh, juicy, without yellowness and explicit signs Damage to both mechanical and due to insect activities.
• For freezing, only a young dill is used, which has more thin stems and no blooming, since, otherwise, dill will have the smell of cumin and will look like that which is used during canning.
• Dill, like any other greens, should be grown in an environmentally friendly area.

And now it will be about the ways of freezing.

Method 1

• Fresh dill stems come through, removing yellowed and tagged leaves.
• Ukrop cuts down the lower coarse pieces of stems without greens.
• The greens are washed under running water and laid out on a cotton towel for drying. On top of the greens are wedged with paper towel. Also greens can be put in dry pure Bank (like a bouquet) and leave for a while. Then the upper part of the beam will dry well, and water drops from the stems will be used to the jar.
• Well dried greens are crushed and leave for another time for the final drying, since the separated juice from the seats again moisturizes dill. Greens need to be fun to dry, so that it is faster, but not allowing wilting.
• Pain small polyethylene packages or plastic containers. It is desirable that they were such an amount so that the amount of greenery is placed at once. This will give the opportunity to not get the same package from the freezer several times.
• The chopped dill is folded into the packages - very loose, not comic. Tied or closed and removed into the freezer for pre-freezing.
• When the dill is frozen, from the packages are released by all air, slightly giving the bag with hand, again tied and removed into the freezing chamber.
• If plastic containers are used for freezing, then the chopped and dried greenery looser is placed in the container, closed and immediately removed into the freezing chamber.

Method 3.

Dill can be frozen in ice cubes.

• Dill washed, shake out excess water.
• For freezing in ice cubes, only the delicate sheets of dill are used, since the thickened stems occupy in cells for ice freezing a lot of space. Therefore, leaflets are cut, and naked stalks are dried. After all, they can also be completely freeze, and then use to flavor soups and broths. Such twigs are put during cooking meat or fish, and then removed.
• The dope leaflets are very finely cut and firmly fold into molds for ice freezing, leaving a few space for water.
• Dill is poured with cold water.
• Molds with dill are cleaned into the freezer for freezing. Such ice cubes with dill can be left directly in the molds, and after the final freezing, remove them from the molds, shifting into a plastic bag (preferably in two) and tie well so that the fragrance of dill does not disappear.

Such dill cubes are very convenient to use for the aromatization of dishes. Cubes, not defrosting, add at the very end of cooking.

How to turn further, decide for yourself. The fact is that we have various "sticks and twigs" from fragrant greens Do not be acceptable in any form. If parsley is only leaflets, dill - exclusively needles. Yes, and that they were chopped in almost dust. That is why stems I do not use in this recipeBut they can not be thrown away, but to add to vegetables when preserving. The aroma from such a greenery is even more saturated. So, we go to the garden (who he has, of course), we collect a dill (or buy it in the market), we wash it very thoroughly under cold running water so that the earth, insects and other dirt remains. Now it is necessary to treat each bush - we drag dill twigs so that bare stalks remain (what to do with them, I have already advised you).

We fold the leafy needles in a bowl. I have from 700 grams of collected dill (right bushes with roots) it turned out 130 grams of prepared raw materials.

Further dill needs to be dried, that is, to save it to the maximum of moisture, which, naturally, is from washing. It is thanks to such a procedure that the frozen dill will not stick together, but will remain the same crumbly, as well as fresh. On the table or a wide board with stele paper towels or napkins and pour dill. Let them lie to an hour.

Then you can grind it with a sharp knife. Want, chop larger, and if your home is the same arrows, cut the bed.
