Ingredients

  • water - 120 g;
  • sugar - 500 g;
  • red currant - 600 g;
  • cherry and currant leaves optional.

How to make redcurrant jelly for the winter

First, clean the berries from the stalks. Then rinse them and pour them into a saucepan. The stalks can be dried and added to tea in winter for flavor.

Pour purified water into a saucepan and place over moderate heat.

Boil the currants for 10 minutes on the stove and move the saucepan to the table.

In a clean deep container, wipe the whole berry along with the liquid. From the cake, you can make fruit drinks or cook compote by pouring boiling water in a saucepan.

Pour over mashed currant back to the saucepan and add sugar to it.

To give additional flavor, you can throw a few leaves of currant or cherry there.

Boil the red currants over low heat for 20 minutes, periodically removing the foam with a wooden spoon.

Discard the leaves from the finished jelly and pour it into small jars that need to be sterilized beforehand.

The very next day, a beautiful and bright blank for the winter hardens and the desired consistency is obtained.

You can serve this jelly with pancakes, pancakes, ice cream or just with tea as a snack.

Redcurrant jelly "Five minutes"

Such a recipe is suitable for especially busy housewives, for whom every minute is worth its weight in gold. For 1 kg of currants, take 1.3 kg of sugar.

Redcurrant jelly without cooking

Turn the washed and dried currant berries into puree. This should be done without the use of metal objects, a mortar and pestle are best suited.
Squeeze the resulting mass through a sieve, and you will get a natural currant juice.
Now add sugar and, constantly stirring, bring it to complete dissolution in currant juice. To slightly speed up this process, heat the container with currants on fire, but it is only to a warm state, this jelly cannot be boiled and boiled.

As soon as the sugar is completely dissolved, you can pour the jelly into jars, cork nylon lids and send for storage in the cellar or refrigerator.
For this method of preparing jelly, the following proportions of products will be required: for 1 liter of currant juice, 1.5 g of granulated sugar.

What if the jelly doesn't set?

If you did everything right, then the jelly will begin to solidify already in the process of shifting it over the banks. The more it cools, the more jelly-like it becomes. But if you see that the jelly is fluid and does not solidify, pour it back into the container and boil for another 3 to 5 minutes.
How to determine that the jelly is already ready? Slightly tilt the dishes in which you cook currants in different directions. If the syrup begins to linger on the walls in the form of a pink viscous coating, then you can already lay out the jelly in jars.

Red currant blanks how to cook

There is another longer, but more reliable way. Pour some hot jelly into a bowl or cup and leave to cool completely, if it has not thickened, then it should be boiled even more or gelling additives should be added.

The reason that the currant mass does not thicken may lie in the small evaporation of the liquid or not a large amount of sugar. Add a little more granulated sugar, and in order for the liquid to evaporate better, take wide dishes for cooking, thereby increasing the area of ​​\u200b\u200bcontact of the currant mass with air. The narrower and taller the dish, the longer it takes to cook the jelly.

You can use thickeners, add a little gelatin or gelfix. But it is best to use natural agar-agar. It has absolutely no extraneous specific smell and taste, the only drawback is that it can not always be found on the free market.

  • To speed up the process, you can not immediately cut off the branches, but boil the currants along with them. The main thing then, when you wipe through a sieve, is to prevent the twigs from getting into the jelly.
  • Always try to wipe the currants through a sieve while they are still hot, so you can squeeze the maximum amount of juice from the berries and the jelly does not start to harden yet.
  • The same recipes can be used currant jelly-assorted. The basis of such an assortment should be red and white currant, because in them the largest number gelling agents. For example, you need to take 3 glasses of them, and add one more glass each black currant and raspberries. You can also make currant jelly in combination with gooseberries, this berry also has excellent gelling properties.

  • Currant jelly can be used as a sauce for cottage cheese soufflé, cereals, dumplings or cottage cheese casserole.
  • For straining, use the finest sieve so that the jelly is transparent. If there is no such strainer, you can use multilayer gauze for this purpose or new (not too expensive) 40 den women's tights. Best Option there will be a piece of old nylon net tulle like "veil" or "organza". The tulle needs to be folded in half, the interlacing of the threads is quite dense, such a fabric will not stretch like gauze or tights, so it will be possible to strain the jelly at a time without the remains of cake.

Redcurrant Jelly Ingredients:

1 kg redcurrant,
1 kg of sugar
small mug of water

V different varieties red currants have different pectin content, so jelly according to the same recipe can turn out to be of different thickness. Currant varieties with at least 6-7% pectin content are suitable for good gelling: Asya, Bayana, Valentinovka (10% pectin), Vika, Gazelle, Dana, Marmeladnitsa, Niva, Spark (11%), Orlovskaya Star (11%) , Orlovchanka (11%), Osipovskaya, Gift of Summer (11%), Rose (11%), Yuterborgskaya.

We sort out the red currant, wash it cold water. We boil a 200 milliliter glass of drinking water in a saucepan, pour currants there, heat over low heat for 5 minutes, stirring constantly, until the berries burst and let the juice flow.

We wipe the currant through a sieve, discard the cake. Now we need a wide pan, the wider the better.

Pour the resulting juice into this pan, add sugar and cook over medium heat for about 15 minutes from the moment of boiling. Do not cover with a lid, let the juice boil slowly and excess liquid evaporate. It should barely boil, because gelling substances are destroyed during active boiling. Your goal is to evaporate at least 1/3 of the water.

Pour hot jelly into sterilized jars, roll it up, turn it over and wrap it with a blanket until it cools completely.

1 liter of jelly comes out of 1 kg of berries. The very next day after cooking, currant jelly turns into a real, thick one, as if with gelatin. And what a vibrant color! And the aroma! If there is not enough pectin in the berry, the jelly according to this recipe may thicken and only after 3-4 weeks, so do not panic if you still have juice in the jar the next day.

This is the easiest way to make currant jelly. If you have a juicer, you can first squeeze currant juice, then add sugar to it (250 g of sugar per 200 g of juice), bring to a boil, but do not boil, roll into sterilized jars.

This year I tried to reduce the cooking time from 30 minutes (as originally indicated in the recipe) to 15 minutes, the result is exactly the same - quite thick and tasty jelly, so I corrected the time in the recipe.

And now to understand the process. In some berries, and currants - red and black - among them, there are substances (pectins) that form gels in the presence of sugar and acid. There is acid in the berries, add sugar, leave to stand - here you have jelly, provided that there is enough sugar. If not gelled, add sugar and leave again. But if we boil the juice or dilute it with water, we reduce the amount of pectin. That is, if the juice is too diluted or boiled too much, it may not gel. But there is a way out in both cases - you need to reduce the water content in the broth. How? We heat the juice in a wide saucepan so that the excess liquid only boils slightly and evaporates, evaporate by half, leave in a cool place for gelling. In the process of gelling, do not touch, do not interfere with or move the jar, let the bonds form quietly. That, in fact, is all, now you will approach the process of cooking jelly from red, and any other, currant consciously.

If it didn’t work out, add a little sugar and again boil the juice one and a half or two times and you should get exactly jelly, it has been tested in practice!
