In winter, we prepare tea from viburnum, which is the first remedy for colds, fever, fatigue, weakness. Such delicious, hot and fragrant viburnum tea is drunk with pleasure by both children and adults.

I will not share recipes here, since this is the topic of another article, if you are interested in this topic, then you can read, the topic has already been disclosed on the blog. Today the recipe will focus on harvesting viburnum with sugar.

No wonder they say that viburnum is taken instead of pills. This is not a baseless expression, because it is true.

  • Kalina red has anti-inflammatory properties.
  • Viburnum has antipyretic properties.
  • Viburnum has calming properties, due to which viburnum is used for various nervous disorders.
  • The content of vitamin C in viburnum berries is even higher than in citrus fruits.
  • Kalina perfectly reduces pressure, so people with low blood pressure should refrain from eating berries.

During the period of viral and colds, viburnum tea is a real salvation. And now let's start preparing blanks for the winter.

Kalina for the winter - recipes for blanks

When harvesting viburnum, I want to pay attention to the fact that berries should be harvested after the first frost. At this time, red viburnum berries lose their bitterness.

If you prepare viburnum with sugar for the winter before the first frosts, then the taste of raw jam may be a little bitter. But many people like the pleasant bitterness that is characteristic of berries.

If you want to remove bitterness, then viburnum berries need to be frozen. Place them in the freezer for about 1 hour. The berries will be more palatable, the bitterness will no longer be felt.

Recipes for blanks from viburnum for the winter are quite simple. There are recipes for mashed viburnum, and you can wipe viburnum with a stone from pitted, as well as a recipe for making viburnum with sugar without cooking.

You can increase or decrease the amount of ingredients in recipes as you wish.

Sugar blanks are stored quite well. We store viburnum with sugar in the refrigerator.

Even sprinkled with layers of viburnum berries with sugar, this will already be a good preparation for the winter. This will prevent damage to the berries and preserve their beneficial properties.

Kalina with sugar without cooking. Recipe with photo.

It is usually sold tied in bundles. When choosing a viburnum on the market, be sure to pay attention to the appearance of the berries. You should not buy crushed or crushed berries, as well as damaged berries.

Ingredients:

  • 500 grams of viburnum berries
  • 500 grams of sugar

500 grams of viburnum is without twigs, only berries. After you have sorted the berries, they must be weighed. You can increase or decrease the proportions, it all depends on how much viburnum you have.

Choose clean and beautiful branches. Before buying, you can taste a couple of viburnum berries. If everything suits you, then buy viburnum.

Before making raw viburnum jam, be sure to wash the berries. We fill the berries in a bowl with running water. You need to carefully wash the berries.

We place the berries in a colander to drain excess liquid. Additionally, the branches can be dried on a paper towel.

Now we separate the viburnum berries from the twigs. At the same time, we remove the damaged berries. If you have a lot of viburnum berries, then this process will take some time.

We grind viburnum in containers, it all depends on the number of berries. I took a saucepan, as practice shows, it is convenient to grind berries in it.

Crush the berries with a wooden rolling pin or "masher" for mashed potatoes.

Now about sugar. Sugar is added to viburnum in a ratio of 1: 1. This is usually the standard. But we add a little more, for 500 grams of viburnum I added 750 grams of sugar.

I grind with the skin and bones so that all the useful vitamins are preserved. I use this viburnum in winter for making tea. After I have brewed tea, I filter it through a strainer. The bones and skin remain in the sieve.

Pour sugar into the berries and continue to crush the berries with a rolling pin. I repeat that I use the berries along with the bones of the skin.

Let the berries sit at room temperature for a while to dissolve the sugar.

I put the berries grated with sugar in sterile jars and close them with sterile lids. I keep the blanks in the refrigerator.

It is in viburnum with sugar without cooking that all vitamins are preserved.

Pitted viburnum with sugar

Ingredients:

  • viburnum - 500 grams
  • sugar - 1 kg

For cooking, I use the same principle as in the first recipe. In order not to repeat, with a photo, see the whole process above, how to wash the berries, dry and sort.

Crush the berries and add sugar. I use a rolling pin, some do it with a blender. After adding sugar, we continue to grind viburnum.

It is also advisable to leave viburnum with sugar on the table at room temperature so that the sugar dissolves.

We grind the finished mass through a strainer. To avoid using an iron colander, you can use a plastic or plastic colander. It is also desirable that the cells are not very small.

It turns out delicious, fragrant viburnum with pitted sugar. After standing a little in a cool place, viburnum with sugar becomes much thicker. Should be stored in the refrigerator.

Bones and skins that remain can not be thrown away, but used to make tea. By pouring a few tablespoons of boiling water you get a pleasant drink from viburnum.

How to freeze viburnum berries for the winter

To do this, the berries need to be washed, sorted out. Try to keep all viburnum berries whole, not crushed. Dry them on a paper towel. This is important to remove excess moisture.

Place the berries on a spread in a thin layer and freeze them. Then the berries need to be taken out of the freezer and packaged in bags or bags with a zip fastener, you can use trays.

Compote from viburnum berries

Viburnum compote is a tasty and fragrant drink that can be used instead of medicine. Compote is closed in three liter jars, liter jars.

A friend of mine recently shared this recipe. They have a huge viburnum bush growing and they have tried a lot of recipes for viburnum blanks.

Ingredients:

  • Viburnum berries - 1.5 cups
  • Sugar - 1.5 cups

For a three-liter jar, you need to take 1.5 cups of viburnum berries. Which must first be sorted out and washed by removing spoiled berries.

The taste of viburnum berries is rich, but sour. Therefore, you can add sugar directly to the jar. For three liters 1.5 cups of sugar. Or prepare a sweet syrup (adding sugar to taste) and pour over the berries. Compote is pleasant, refreshing, with a slight sourness.

If you add sugar and berries to a jar, pour boiling water over everything and sterilize jars with compote for 10 minutes. If you are preparing sweet syrup, then pour berries with syrup, leave for half an hour, and then pour the syrup into a saucepan and boil for about 5 minutes. Pour the syrup back into the jar and roll up with sterile lids.

In both cases, compote should be wrapped in a warm blanket and left for a day.

Jam from viburnum five minutes, recipe

Ingredients:

  • viburnum - 500 grams
  • sugar - 1 kg.

Viburnum jam can be cooked in two ways. If you want the berries to be whole, then prepare a syrup of water and sugar. For the indicated amount of sugar, you need a glass of water.

We prepare the syrup and dip viburnum berries into it. But here already try to ensure that the red viburnum berries are all whole, not dented or damaged. Cook for 5 minutes stirring. And then we lay out the five-minute jam from viburnum in sterile jars.

The second method of preparation involves combining viburnum and sugar and grinding.

Put the jam on the fire (move it into a saucepan with a thick bottom) and cook from the moment of boiling for 5 minutes. We lay out the jam in sterile jars and close with sterile lids.

You can make delicious tea from this jam and take it as a tonic and vitamin drink, or as a means of reducing high blood pressure.

I prefer viburnum mashed with sugar with skin and pits and viburnum mashed with sugar without pits. But five minutes, this year it was a new way to harvest viburnum for the winter.

Viburnum jelly

Ingredients:

  • Kalina - 500 grams
  • Sugar -1 kg.

To prepare viburnum jelly, pour boiling water over the berries, leave for 5 minutes. Then strain the water and rub the berries through a sieve.

Combine the resulting viburnum puree with sugar and mix well. We put on fire and boil from the moment of boiling for 7-10 minutes, while constantly stirring.

We lay out viburnum jelly in sterile jars and close with sterile lids. After cooling, the jelly will become even thicker.

Viburnum sauce for the winter

Ingredients:

  • Kalina - 500 grams
  • Sugar - 5 tbsp. spoons
  • Salt - a pinch
  • Ground black pepper (or white pepper) - 1/3 teaspoon
  • Vegetable oil - 1 tbsp. spoon

If you like sweet and sour sauces for fish, meat, chicken and other dishes, then I recommend trying viburnum sauce.

We love to try different interesting sauce recipes, this year we made quite a lot. Now we are preparing viburnum for the winter.

Berries should be sorted out, washed, separated from the branches. Next, they must be poured with boiling water and left for 5-7 minutes. Thus, the berries will become softer.

We decant the water and wipe the viburnum berries through a sieve, we don’t need the skin and bones, we only need viburnum puree.

We move the viburnum puree to a saucepan, add salt, sugar, spices and boil from the moment of boiling over low heat for 7-10 minutes.

Be sure to taste the sauce and adjust the spices to your taste and preference. If you want to prepare the sauce for the winter, then the sauce should be sterilized.

The viburnum sauce is homogeneous, red, fragrant. You can serve the sauce to various dishes immediately after preparation.

You can increase or decrease the amount of ingredients for the sauce. And to rid the viburnum of bitterness, you can put the berries in the freezer (time 1 hour), and then make a sauce out of them.

I hope the recipes for viburnum blanks for the winter will be useful to you. Prepare delicious and fragrant natural medicine and delicacy from viburnum berries, and be healthy!

Not everyone knows how to store viburnum at home, although this berry deserves the close attention of those who lead a healthy lifestyle. You can find viburnum if you walk through the autumn forest, you can grow it in your backyard. It is sold in specialized diet food stores, on the market, and its quality remains consistently excellent everywhere. The only pity is that it is not always possible to purchase this healing berry.

The traditions of its use in Russia for the treatment, prevention of diseases, and just for the pleasure of feeling its refreshing taste have more than one century. The unique composition containing minerals, vitamins, organic acids and many more useful substances contributes to its widespread use:

  • to maintain the tone of the heart muscle;
  • for the treatment of pathologies of the gastrointestinal tract;
  • for the treatment of skin diseases (lichen, acne);
  • for the prevention of atherosclerosis, colds;
  • as an adjunct in the treatment of disorders of the nervous system.

How to collect viburnum?

The best time to collect it for harvesting for the winter is late autumn, the time after the first frost. It is then that the fruits lose their inherent bitterness, become sweeter. The berries are not picked one at a time, otherwise they will lose their juice. The best way to collect is to cut the brushes with a pruner. To the place of processing, brushes can be transferred in a sufficiently thick layer in any container. The peel of the berries is strong enough, and you can not be afraid that they will burst.

At home, you can store berries right in the brushes, putting them in a loosely closed container in the refrigerator or hanging them in any cool room. You can not worry that the product will deteriorate or lose its healing properties, this will not happen for several months.

When storing brushes with berries in an apartment, the period of use of the product is slightly reduced. If it is not possible to store berries at low temperatures, it is advisable to process them.

We freeze viburnum

Remaining on the tree, the berries endure the frosty winter quite calmly, if they do not become food for wintering birds. Even viburnum brushes hung on the balcony can endure long frosts and retain their taste and beneficial properties after defrosting. In order to prolong the period of use of medicinal berries, you can freeze them by separating them from the brush along with the stalks.

It is not necessary to wash viburnum in order to store it in the freezer, it is done right before use.

The left stalks will not allow the juice to flow out when the berries are stored for storage. The fruits are laid out in bags or plastic containers. If the berries are dry, they will remain crumbly even after freezing. From frozen viburnum, you can prepare fruit drinks, compotes, kissels, medicinal infusions.

Dry viburnum

You can prepare these berries for the winter by drying them in the oven. The brushes are laid out on a baking sheet, the regulator is set at 50–60 ⁰С. The oven door should be ajar so that the viburnum juice does not flow out of the bursting berries. The stalks after drying the berries can be removed. Dried viburnum should be stored in dry glass jars with lids.

Drying is considered complete when the berries become wrinkled.

You can dry the berries for the winter not in such an intensive way, but simply by spreading them out in the open air in the shade. The fruits are laid out on clean white paper, covered with gauze or a thin cloth on top. This method of drying takes time and patience, the berries need to be gently mixed from time to time.

Wipe with sugar

To preserve the healing properties of viburnum, this method of harvesting for the winter, such as rubbing berries with sugar, is perfect. To do this, you need to sort out the berries, separate not quite high-quality ones, rinse the fruits in cool water, and dry them.

For grinding, the following methods are used:

  • rubbing through a sieve;
  • grinding with a blender;
  • grinding the mass with a meat grinder.

No need to separate the seeds from the berries, so you will lose the healthy juice. Crushed bones will not interfere with the use of pureed viburnum.

The crushed mass must be mixed with sugar in a ratio of 2: 1, that is, sugar should be twice as much as berries. It is laid out in sterile jars and stored in a refrigerator or in a cool basement. During long-term storage, the juice may separate and fall down the container, but this does not affect the quality of the original product. This method of harvesting berries for the winter allows you to save all the vitamins in them.

You can store pureed berries by sterilization in boiling water. Half-liter jars filled with crushed berries with sugar need to be sterilized for 10 minutes, and liter jars - twice as long. The amount of sugar during preservation can be halved compared to the previous recipe. After sterilization, the mashed berries are rolled up and cleaned in a cool place.

Squeezing the juice

Separating the juice from the berries, you can stock up on a useful product for the winter. The selected fruits are washed, sorted and sent to the juicer. Add sugar to the juice obtained after pressing and mix. It is mixed in a 1:1 ratio, poured into sterilized dishes (jars, bottles). Viburnum juice should be stored only in the refrigerator.

You can replace part of the sugar with honey or use the following recipe to store juice for the winter:

  • viburnum berries - 1 kg;
  • water - 200 ml;
  • honey - to taste.

After squeezing the juice from viburnum, mix all the ingredients, boil for 10 minutes and store in a cool place. This blank can be used to make viburnum marshmallow or jam, marmalade, fruit drink, compote.

Making a liqueur

Medicinal liqueur can be prepared from these healthy berries, preserving their healing properties for the winter. It consists of:

  • viburnum juice - 100 ml;
  • water - 100 ml;
