Strawberry and red currant compote for the winter

The compote from these berries is very light, summer and refreshing, and the sweetness of sugar and strawberries is compensated by the sourness of currants.

Ingredients

Cooking process

step 1 out of 6
Pre-sort the berries, getting rid of small debris and spoiled fruits. Then fill in a small bowl of water and pour all the berries into it. Gently mix them with your hand, washing away the dust and sand, then collect the debris that has come up from the surface, drain the liquid and rinse the berries in a colander under a weak stream of running water.
step 2 out of 6
Tear off the twigs and sepals from the selected berries, dry them on a towel or blot to remove excess moisture, and then pour into a pre-pasteurized jar.
step 3 out of 6
In a saucepan, mix the sugar and citric acid and cover with water. Put on fire, bring to a boil, stirring constantly, and cook for 3 minutes until sugar is completely dissolved.
step 4 out of 6
Pour the resulting syrup over the berries in a jar. To prevent the glass from cracking, a metal plate is usually placed under the bottom or a jar is placed on the sink plane. It is also better not to pour in all the syrup at a time, but to do it in three or four passes with short breaks so that the glass has time to gradually warm up.
step 5 out of 6
Pour the syrup up to the level of the jar's hangers, then tightly close the lid or roll up under the key.
step 6 out of 6
Turn the roll upside down, cover with several layers of tea towels or a thick blanket and leave to cool completely.
Bon Appetit!
