Of course, it is most useful to eat these fruits in fresh, stock up on vitamins, which is called "from the manufacturer", however, if you want to replenish yourself with vitamins not only in summer, you should think about rolling up apricot compote for the winter.

The variety of this compote can be provided by combining apricots with other fruits and berries. In compote, in addition to apricots, cherries, plums, strawberries and other fruits are usually added. Such drinks are obtained in an interesting and unusual way: compote from apricots with oranges for the winter, compote from oranges with lemon for the winter. But, anyway, any apricot compote for the winter, simple or combined, it always turns out to be very fragrant and beautiful. For quick preparation, saving time, apricot compote is often made for the winter without sterilization, pouring boiled water or hot syrup over prepared foods. However, before that, jars and lids must be thoroughly washed and scalded with boiling water. It is better to remove seeds from fruits, but many housewives, in order to save time, prepare compote from apricots with stones for the winter.

Take advantage of the tips experienced housewives how to cook apricot compote for the winter:

The main thing when preparing apricot compote is to correctly calculate the amount of sugar, follow this, clearly follow the recipes;

Cans of compote can be stored at room temperature.

The last month of summer is just around the corner. Vegetables, fruits and berries are just an abundance! Every day we try to cook our favorite dishes from them. After all, everyone knows that the most delicious they are fresh.

But knowing that such an abundance will end soon, I want to extend the pleasure as much as possible, and transfer a piece of summer to cold winter. And therefore, all housewives are actively engaged in preparations for the winter. Canned and, jam is made, compotes are prepared.

So it is with me, in the kitchen now every day a cannery. Yesterday, for example, two types of jam were cooked at the same time, cucumbers with currants were made (recipe a little later) and apricot compote was prepared. It is about him that we will talk today.

The fruits are already gradually moving away, soon they will not be left at all. But those that are sold are ripe, filled with the southern sun, with velvety thin skin. How not to stock up on these for a long cold winter?

You open a jar of such a delicacy for some holiday, or you just want to drink a glass on a normal day, and your mood immediately rises! After all, in a jar, like little suns, there are halves of fruits with a wonderful aroma and taste of summer. So let's prepare them together with you.

According to this recipe, we began to cook them when we lived in Uzbekistan. Everyone then actively shared recipes with each other. Then tried different variants, but this one gradually somehow supplanted all the others. And so it remains to this day the most beloved.

Favorite because it is made according to such a recipe quite easily and simply. It does not need to be pre-cooked and sterilized. It doesn't have too much sugar. It retains all natural scents. It keeps very well! It's delicious. So what more could you want?

We will need (for 5 three-liter jars):

  • apricots - 4 kg
  • sugar - 5 full glasses
  • water - about 2.5 liters per jar

Cooking:

1. Preparation of all preparations for the winter begins with a trip to the market. I usually go to the wholesale vegetable market during the harvesting season. Firstly, there you can choose what you need, and secondly, it's just saving money. When you buy a lot, you can save a lot. Today I bought a 10-kilogram box, saving 40 rubles per kilogram. In addition, I chose the fruits that I wanted.

4 kilograms will go to compote, 4 - to jam. It is being cooked now, when it is ready, I will write how we cook it. Well, the remaining 2 kg, we will eat with pleasure. After all, you also need to stock up on vitamins!

2. Let's look at what kind of apricots we need. Try to choose ripe but firm fruits. If they are soft, then in the process of cooking they will generally lose their shape. The appearance of the fruit will deteriorate from this. In addition, the syrup can turn out to be cloudy and ugly.


Unripe fruits are also not suitable. From such specimens, first of all, the taste will suffer. The syrup will become bitter, and you will not want to drink this.

3. And so, the apricots are bought and delivered to the kitchen. Now we need to sort them out. Choose ripe, whole fruits for cooking. If there are beaten, spoiled fruits, then it is better to put them aside. In the future, they can be used for jam, pie, or the same compote, but which can be cooked just for drinking.

4. Now we wash them well with water, and cut them into 2 parts, right along the groove. It is as if specially made to be divided into two halves. At the same time, we remove the bone.


There are recipes where the bones are left, and the fruits are preserved whole. We, in our family, are used to cleaning them. My mother kept telling me that the bones contained a poisonous substance. And that you can cook compote with whole fruits, but not for harvesting. Therefore, I got used to it, I take out the bones all the time.

5. Put the water to boil large saucepan. First you need 5 liters. But you can put another one of the same pan. We will also need this water, but a little later.

6. In pre-sterilized jars (how to sterilize them is described in detail), put the halves of chopped fruit, cut side down. It takes about 20-23 fruits per jar, that is, 40-45 halves. The jar in this case turns out to be 1/3 filled.



7. When the water boils, pour boiling water into the jars in this way. so that they are covered. Cover with a sterilized lid and leave in this closed state for 20 minutes.


8. Then drain the water back into the pan through the plastic lid with holes. This is a special lid for draining water during conservation.

9. Boil water again. And also boil water in another pan. The total volume of hot boiling water should be approximately 8 liters, this is with a margin.

10. Pour into jars a full glass of granulated sugar. It took me about 1.5 kg of sugar for 5 cans.


11. When the water boils, then first pour into the jars the one that has already been drained from them. This water has already become with the taste and smell of fruits, and of course we will save it. Pour half into each jar.


12. Cover with a lid and hold for 5 minutes. Let the sugar dissolve as much as possible. You can slightly rotate the jar from side to side. All of it will not dissolve, but that's okay. We also have hot water, which will finish all the work.

If you pour all the water at once, then its heat is not enough to dissolve the sugar. And when you pour in two batches, the sugar dissolves all without residue.

13. During this time, the water has boiled and now it needs to be topped up to the very brim. So that when you close the cans with a metal lid, it slightly overflows. In this case, we will be sure that there is no air left in the cans.

14. Immediately cover with lids and tighten with a seamer.

15. Prepare a blanket, blanket, or large towel. Turn the jars upside down and wrap well. During the time until the jars are under the covers and cool down, the sterilization process will continue. In addition, apricots do not cool quickly, but seem to languish in warmth. And this makes it even tastier, and the drink itself is more aromatic. Yes, and the sugar has not yet all dispersed, and the heat will help him with this.

After 24 hours, the jars are still barely warm. And so I leave them upside down for another 24 hours, until they cool completely.

16. Then we turn the jars over and put them in a place accessible for observation for 2-3 weeks. During this time, the lids should not swell, the syrup should become cloudy. Also, nothing should wander in the bank. If this suddenly happens, then such a jar needs to be opened and its contents thrown away. You can't eat this canned food.


If you followed all the rules, then this will not happen. This happens if jars and lids are not sterilized. If you do not respect the time, proportions. And also, if it is bad to twist them with a seaming machine.

Usually, canned compote apricots are perfectly stored for a year or even two. And nothing happens to him.

After opening such a jar, the fruits are delicious, saturated with syrup, and the syrup, in turn, saturated with the taste and aroma of fruits, is viscous, thick, fragrant and very tasty.

The only thing open fruit quickly lose their color, darken from contact with air. Especially when they are left without syrup at all. But they are not gone, and they can be eaten.

This is a recipe that we have been preparing for the winter for many years. But there are other recipes that also make delicious options. One of these will be discussed below.

Apricot compote - recipe with sterilization

I won't describe this recipe as carefully as the first one because the principle is exactly the same. There are only slight differences in the final stage. As well as some features, which we will discuss below.

  • It is convenient to make compotes with sterilization when you twist small jars, for example, liter ones.
  • Also easy to sterilize liter cans full of fruits.
  • But you can preserve in this way and three-liter jars.
  • The consumption of sugar during canning with sterilization is somewhat higher than without sterilization. For example, 55-60% syrup is used. That is, 550-600 grams of sugar is added per liter of water. There are recipes where 400 grams of sugar is taken per liter of water, that is, 40% syrup

How to preserve and sterilize?

  • Sterilized jars are filled with fruits at their discretion. Either full or half full.
  • We prepare the syrup in advance, that is, we make the concentration of sugar per liter of water either 400 or 600 gr. In the first case, the syrup will not be very saturated, in the second it will be strong, and it is more reliable for conservation. Bring the syrup to a boil.
  • We put it in banks. And there are two options here. Sometimes, for fidelity, holding the syrup in a jar of fruit for 10-15 minutes, pour it back. Then boil again, and pour again. And you can pour the syrup only once.
  • In both cases, you need to pour the syrup to the very end. So that when you close the jar, it slightly spills over the edge. Immediately cover the jars with lids and sterilize.
  • To sterilize, pour water into a large saucepan, putting a layer of gauze or a rag on the bottom. IN warm water set the jars, the water should reach up to her "shoulders". Boil. Sterilize -

0.5 l jar - 15 minutes

1 l. jar - 25 minutes

2 l. jar - 35 minutes

3 l. jar - 45 minutes

  • After the allotted time, remove the jar with special tongs, while the lid should in no case be opened. And immediately roll up with a seaming machine.

If, when you take out the jar, the lid opens, then you need to pour boiling water into it again to the very brim, and again put the jar to be sterilized. but already for a shorter amount of time, so a 3 liter one should be sterilized for at least 15-20 minutes, and a liter one - 10.

  • As soon as one can is rolled up, you can get the next one and twist it.
  • We turn the twisted jars over, tightly wrap them with a blanket or blanket, and leave them in this state for 2 days.
  • Then we turn over. We observe the banks for another 2-3 weeks.

Varieties of compotes

  • apricot compote for the winter can be prepared by adding other fruits. Add cherries, cherries, plums, apples.


  • any berries are also added if desired.
  • they are prepared by adding whole nucleoli from the stones. To do this, the fruits are divided into two halves and the bones are taken out. Then the nuts are removed, laid in halves, and in this form they are placed in jars. In this form, they are poured with syrup and sterilized.
  • honey can be used instead of sugar. Pleasure, of course, is not cheap, but there is a recipe and we must know it. For 1 liter of water, 350-380 grams of honey is used. For the rest, we do everything exactly the same.
  • and of course there are recipes where the stone is not removed, and the fruit is laid whole. But this is up to you.


These are so delicious and wonderful recipes with all the nuances and subtleties. Cook, and let your compotes always be the most delicious.

Apricot is one of the sweetest, most common and delicious fruits and has its own characteristics of harvesting for the winter. In addition to jam, marmalade and jam, excellent compotes are made from it, the main recipes of which we will now consider.

What is useful compote from apricots

Apricot contains many useful elements and vitamins.

Sufficiently ripe fruit is slightly compressed in the palm of your hand. Ripe will be elastic and its pulp will return to its original shape. Overripe fruits will begin to be crushed in the hand, and in the compote they will boil and spoil the appearance of the drink, making it cloudy. Green fruits will not add sweetness and color saturation to the compote, so it is better to use them for jam or use them for food after ripening.

It is generally accepted that poison is contained only in bitter almond, but this is a delusion: hydrocyanic acid is in any variety, only in different concentrations.
