INGREDIENTS

  • 2 kg of white currant berries (without twigs)
  • 2 kg of sugar

Step 1

Remove the berries of the white currant from the twigs, rinse in running water and drain. Pour the berries into a saucepan (not aluminum!), Add 50 ml of water and put on medium heat. Bring the berries to a boil and cook for about 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally. All berries should burst and boil.

Step 2

Remove the mass of boiled berries from the heat and rub through a fine sieve to remove seeds and skins. The result is a translucent light mass. It should be so.

Step 3

Add sugar to the berry mass in portions, stirring constantly until the sugar is completely dissolved. Pour the berry-sugar mixture back into the saucepan where the berries were boiled before and bring to a boil. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5-7 minutes. The mass should become transparent and acquire an amber hue. At this time, prepare beautiful small jars (sterilize) and lids.

For storage, cover the jars and store in a cool place. Store an open jar in the refrigerator. Enjoy your meal!

"- Is it red? - No, it's black. - Why white? - Because it's green." What is it? Of course, we are talking about currants. There is red, there is black, and this is not news. And there is white currant. By its properties, this is the same red berry, it is also rich in vitamins A and C, only the color is different.

At the dacha, we have only one bush of such a berry, the rest is more and more familiar - red and black. And from these berries, I decided to make a yummy for the child - jelly. We already have such jelly from red currant, but to make it tastier and more interesting, we need to make it from white. To do this, the berry is tedious to collect, rinse, dry a little. You can do this with a paper towel or regular waffle towel, which is not a shame. Unlike red currants, white does not leave bright spots on the material. Then the berry needs to be boiled a little. To do this, I add a small amount of water to the dishes, in which I need to do this. As soon as it boils, remove from heat so as not to destroy vitamins.


Then a responsible and laborious process begins - squeezing out currant juice. For this, I used a regular colander, but the holes there are large enough, and some of the bones fell into the juice. After the berries are mashed and the juice has been separated from the skin and most of the seeds, it is best to strain the resulting juice.


The juice turns out to be yellowish, even beige, cloudy. Red currants look better in my opinion. But this does not affect the taste. Continuing the preparation further, add sugar to the currant juice and set on fire until boiling. We measure sugar by eye, the volume is slightly less than the volume of juice. We weld on. Future jelly should be hot and a little thick, somewhat stringy. Then, after solidification, it will become a real jelly. When the resulting mass has cooled down a little, I pour it into a clean jar.


We put in a cool place to solidify, and then put it in the refrigerator. This is how it looks after solidification:


The color is amber, beautiful, and the taste is sweet and sour, currant :) Such a healthy delicacy will be an excellent dessert for both a child and an adult. Combined in red currant jelly, you can decorate the table beautifully. Due to minimal heat treatment, the jelly retains its vitamins, which are so rich in currants. Great for the winter!
