Step-by-step preparation of compote for the winter from cherries with seeds
There is no need to sterilize jars for preparation according to this recipe. Wash them thoroughly with baking soda and then rinse them under running water. Pour the cherries with water in a large bowl. Let stand for 20-30 minutes. If you are not sure about the absence of worms in cherries, add 1 tbsp. l. salt for every liter of water. After 20 minutes, all the pests will emerge and you will only have to rinse the fruit. Cherry does not absorb salt, not a single gram.
Now we sort out the cherries, removing the stalk. We also put all the spoiled berries aside.
We lay out the cherries in jars, add mint leaves.
Fill the jars with boiling water to the very top.
We leave the jars for 15 minutes, covering with a lid. After that, we pour the water into a saucepan and add sugar to it to taste. The syrup should taste slightly sugary.
Bring the syrup to a boil and fill the jars. We immediately roll them up with lids, which were previously sterilized in boiling water.
After the cans have cooled completely, we transfer them to storage in the basement or pantry. It is not recommended to store the workpiece in the form of a compote with seeds for more than two years.
