Blackcurrant compote for a child

Black currant contains trace elements valuable for children: iron, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium. Berries are also rich in antioxidants and pectin. And, of course, black currant is one of the leaders among berries in terms of vitamin C. A product with such a nutritional value should be included in the children's diet more often. Sour berries are not always to the taste of small fussy, but if you make a healthy tasty compote from them, then you will not have to force it to drink.

Ingredients

Cooking process

step 1 out of 5
For the preparation of compote, you can use both fresh black currant berries and frozen ones. Fresh berries must be thoroughly washed, freed from twigs, leaves and other random debris. Frozen berries do not require preliminary defrosting - they can be used to prepare frozen compote. In the process of heating, they will defrost anyway, and the loss of vitamins will be minimal.
step 2 out of 5
It is recommended to use the amount of sugar to taste. Too sweet compote is harmful if it contains too much sugar. If the drink is sour and fresh, then the child may not like it. The proportion of sugar indicated in the recipe is balanced in terms of the ratio of sweetness and health.
step 3 out of 5
Place the currant berries in a saucepan, pour in the indicated amount of water and add sugar. Place the pot on the stove and bring the contents to a boil. When the water warms up, use a potato grinder to crush the berries right at the bottom of the pan.
step 4 out of 5
As soon as the compote boils, turn off the stove.
step 5 out of 5
Let the hot compote cool completely under a closed lid - during this time it will infuse and become richer. Serve warm or cold. It is not recommended to reheat the compote so as not to destroy the nutrients.

Bon Appetit!
