Strawberries are a healthy, tasty product. Preparing jelly from berries is not difficult, and the drink will turn out to be as fragrant, tasty, healthy for the body as the strawberries themselves. Each housewife uses her own recipe, because she considers it the best, but in general, the method of preparing jelly is the same. It is especially useful to drink such a drink in the winter, when the risk of catching a cold increases, and with the help of jelly, you can protect the body from the onset of ailments.

In the summer heat, quite often there is a desire to drink something thick in order to combine eating and drinking at the same time, since people do not experience much appetite in the heat.

This task is perfectly handled by the traditional drink, which is familiar to each of us since kindergarten - strawberry jelly. Due to the fact that it contains berries, such a drink will not only taste good, but also quite useful for the body.

Kissel itself has been known in our country for a very long time - even in Soviet times, this drink invariably appeared on the tables of both kindergarten and school canteens, and was added to the diet of adults.

And this is not surprising, because starch, which is one of the main components of this drink, contains a large amount of carbohydrates, and berries will bring the necessary vitamins to your body, which is especially important when building nutrition for children.

Now in stores you can find a fairly large assortment of jelly, which is presented in the form of briquettes, for example, a drink of the Russian Product trademark.

But, of course, neither in taste nor in useful properties can such semi-finished products be compared with a drink prepared at home from fresh berries. So let's get down to cooking, and at the same time consider several jelly recipes at once!

Classic strawberry jelly

How to cook strawberry jelly

1. We are preparing a pot in which we will brew our drink. Pour water into it and put on a strong fire so that it boils faster. Covering the container with a lid will help speed up this process.
2. We wash the berries under running water, remove the tails. We also need to examine them for the presence of perishable places, we cut them off with a knife and do the same with green places on the berries.
3. In a separate deep bowl, we need to crush the berries. You can do this with a pusher, or you can use a regular spoon, although this will somewhat complicate the process.
4. Pour sugar and starch here, then mix everything well so that the mass becomes more or less homogeneous.
5. We shift the crushed berry mixture into boiling water, the fire should not be reduced, since we need to boil the water again. Do not forget to constantly stir our jelly.
6. After waiting for the boil, turn off the fire and with the help of a ladle pour the hot drink into glasses. It can be consumed both hot and cold.

You can easily adjust the density of the drink, for example, if you like to literally eat jelly with a spoon, then put a little more starch. If, on the contrary, you are a supporter of liquid jelly, then reduce the amount of starch to one tablespoon.

This recipe will appeal to lovers of spicy drinks. The taste qualities of this variety of jelly are especially successful when hot.

• Strawberries - 300 g;
• Raisins - 1 tbsp;
• Blackcurrant - 2 tablespoons;
• Potato starch - 2 tablespoons;
• White granulated sugar - 4 tablespoons;
• Purified water - 1 l;
• Cinnamon - ½ sticks;
• Carnation - 3 flowers.

1. We wash strawberries, currants and raisins under running water. We sort through each type of berry, removing spoiled parts and ponytails.
2. Put strawberries and currants in a separate container, crush them similarly to the previous recipe.
3. Pour starch, sugar, spices and raisins into the resulting mass, mix everything. Cinnamon must first be crushed.
4. We put a pot of water on a strong fire and wait for it to boil.
5. When the water begins to boil, immerse the spicy berry mixture in it and bring to a boil, stirring the liquid constantly.
6. As soon as you notice that your jelly has begun to boil, remove the pan from the heat and pour the drink into portioned containers.

How to cook lemon-strawberry jelly

1. Pour water into a saucepan and put on fire to boil. While the heating is going on, we will prepare our ingredients.
2. In about 20 milliliters of cold water, we need to dilute the starch, it is better to do this immediately in a container into which we will add the rest of the ingredients.
3. Wash strawberries, remove stems. We place the berries in a blender and grind well until all the berries turn into a liquid mass.
4. We filter the resulting puree through a sieve, this must be done to remove the bones. If they don't bother you, you can skip this step.
5. Wash the lemon and squeeze the juice from one half of it. About 1 teaspoon of lemon juice is enough for this recipe, but you can increase this amount if you like the sourness. Add juice to puree.

7. By this time, our water should already boil, pour the resulting mass into it.
8. Constantly stirring the jelly, bring the drink to a boil again and at this moment remove the pan from the stove.

Strawberry jelly prepared according to this recipe is bright and very tasty. And due to the fact that we removed the berry stones from it, this drink will be highly appreciated by small children, who very often show discontent about this.

During the ripening season, strawberries should be eaten as much as possible. But, in addition to eating fresh berries, you can also prepare a delicious and healthy drink from childhood - fragrant strawberry jelly. See step by step recipe with photos.

All we need to implement our plan in the amount of one liter is:

• Strawberries - 300-350 grams
• Potato starch - 4 teaspoons
• Citric acid - 1/4 teaspoon
• Granulated sugar - 2 tablespoons (with top)

How to make strawberry jelly

First, put a pot of water on the stove. Water, of course, is better to use purified water. And while it will heat up and boil, let's deal with strawberries.
Let's sort through to identify low-quality specimens. Slightly crushed berries are quite suitable for making jelly.
Pick the sepals off the strawberries. Then put it in a colander and rinse well under running water.
By this time, the water will already boil. We place the berries in a saucepan and boil for 5-7 minutes.

Dissolve starch in a separate bowl with water. Mix thoroughly.

We remove the boiled strawberries with a slotted spoon.
Add sugar and citric acid to the strawberry broth (to enhance the taste). We try and, if necessary, make it sweeter (optional).
We twist a whirlpool in a saucepan (make a funnel) with a tablespoon.

Once again, stir the starch that has settled at the bottom of the cup and immediately introduce it into the strawberry broth in a thin stream, without ceasing to stir in a circle.

Bring to a boil and remove from heat. Strawberry jelly is ready.

500 gr strawberries,
2 liters of water
3 tbsp potato starch,
6 tbsp Sahara,
zest of half a lime (or lemon, orange)
half a vanilla pod.

For jelly, any fruits and berries are suitable. It turns out equally tasty from both fresh and frozen berries. To thicken the drink, starch is most often used. More often it is potato starch, less often corn and maize. Average ratio: 2 tablespoons of potato starch to 2 liters of water. I love thick jelly, so I add 3 tablespoons of starch. Kissel is served hot or cold, I like it cold, especially on a hot summer day when you don’t feel like eating, but you want something sweet and refreshing.

Ingredients:

1. Cut off large strips of zest with a sharp knife. We only need a thin top layer of citrus, as the white part of it will be bitter. I can imagine how fragrant it will be with orange zest.

2. Bring water with sugar to a boil. Adjust the amount of sugar to your taste. Add strawberries, zest and vanilla pod to boiling water. I found the idea to add zest and vanilla to the compote in the book Le Cordon bleu "Dessert Technique". I must say that this small detail radically changes the taste, and most importantly, the aroma of compote.

3. While the compote is boiling, dilute the starch in a glass of cold water. Mix well so that no lumps remain.

4. When the compote boils, take out the berries and zest. And while stirring all the time, pour in the starch mixture in a thin stream.

5. Bring to a boil, turn off. Take out the vanilla pod. It is important to remember that jelly cannot be boiled, because after boiling the jelly will no longer be thick.

6. Everything! Cool slightly, or completely, as you like, and serve. Berries from compote can also be added to jelly, after grinding them in a blender, or left whole berries. I like transparent, without berries. Thick chilled jelly can also be served with pancakes, cheesecakes or ice cream.
