Cured and dried homemade cherries

Regarding the debate on electricity consumption, I asked my husband how much more he paid for the last month (when she began to actively use the dryer). Came out on 100 sq. However, it is not only a matter of drying, at this time my daughter came on vacation, which entailed the active operation of other electrical appliances (water supply, water heater, 24-hour WF, etc.). Therefore, I dry as much as needed, without looking at the counter, but I process everything that "God sent" in the garden-vegetable garden, I do not give a waste.

Admin, thank you so much for the awesome recipe!
Last year I did it for a test - my daughter stretched out the last cherries for a month))) This year she asked me to do more. In general, I did, it turned out to be a 3-liter jar, I can't boast, because I hid it away and I can't get it now, because they will eat it ...
With apricots the same parsley))))) I lost count of how many we bought them, but it turned out in the end 2 box of 4 liters each ...... tasty, healthy and THANKS again !!!!!

Natasha, FOR HEALTH!
Uuuuu ... what noble reserves do you have? If your own orchard is an orchard, then

And I dried the cherries, and got 500 grams of finished, the same with apricots I resisted, dragged from the market, and the result is 1 kg. dried fruit

there is no garden, unfortunately, we were just lucky this year - we were several times in the village and bought fruit there :)))

Roma_Tanya, is there, by any chance, a recipe for dried lingonberries and cranberries in your book? Now is their season, I really want to do it. In our market, dried lingonberry stands like an airplane wing.

Tanya_Roma, and you once wrote that in your miracle book there is a recipe for dried melon)))) can I post it? There is a recipe here, but I (no offense to the author) really trust your recipes. They never failed)))

cranberries? Now is their season

Have the cranberries gone yet? So early? Where is it?

Well, I took it as a keepsake, wrote it down - I'll try to do it in the evening. It's just that now there are a lot of blanks at home, I can forget and there is no time

Girls - do not confuse topics !!!!!!!!!!! To clean up garbage and flood from topics, the pleasure is small, and then you yourself cannot find "somewhere it was"

Including cranberries, lingonberries - take a walk through the section

Peace to your home ladies and gentlemen. She recently became the owner of the Saturn dryer, because the oven is no longer suitable, and it is hot from it in the apartment, there is nothing to breathe. Studied the whole topic. Yesterday my husband brought home 3 buckets of drains. Well, I just love prunes. In general, according to your ROMA recipe, I set it. Seedless, 7 kg of plums turned out (the rest are for compote, that in the oven, in the dryer). I fell asleep with sugar. In this regard, I have a question: is it necessary to mix plums with sugar, or just pour them as if on jam? And then I don't see any juice from them. Thank you all in advance for your answers.

[Tanechka]

Tanya, is there, by any chance, a recipe for dried cranberries in your book?

All recipes are here

Including cranberries

Tanechka, I honestly searched, but in vain, I did not find a recipe for dried cranberries ...

Found only dried and dried lingonberries), perhaps you can do the same with cranberries?

[Kroshik]

Kroshik, and what is the difference between cranberries and lingonberries? Sushi like lingonberries! If you really find fault, cranberries are more juicy and their skin is thinner

last year I cooked according to this recipe and this will be, thank you very much !!!

[Mila]

Yes, Mila - a good option and the cherry is delicious

Dear professional dryer users, I have a question for you:
- How to "preserve" cherries for drying if they have to dry in 3 weeks? ..
It's just that we will run out of cherries in a week, and the Dryer will not get to me before July 9. Tell me how to be ?! Since it's very hotzza to make your own cherry.

freeze most likely

I also thought about freezing, BUT in what form should I freeze it ?! Raw pitted or squeezed out after syrup ??! Maybe someone has already tried such options? Share your experience, please!

[kasotea]

kasotea, if you dry cherries, then, it seems to me, prepare them and put them in the refrigerator after the syrup, then spread them out and dry them, and if you dry them, then only fresh ones.

I freeze pitted cherries, but I still dry them after processing with syrup. I tried it without syrup, it turns out sour, because after drying, the taste is more intense, and the appearance is better, so shiny with syrup.
Already dried 10 kg of cherries, and also with syrup, now it is still drying
They don't eat fresh, but dried ones fly away at the speed of light!

[Nadyusha]

and jerky flies away at the speed of light!

Nadyusha, this is what stops
And ordinary cherries are well stored, and a handful of them can be added somewhere all winter
Again, savings

Dried cherries (Admin)

[Admin]

Admin Tanyusha, I'm going to vacuum, maybe it will stop. I wonder how it will be stored? I remove from the dryer and let it stand for a day, and then I put it in bags.

[Nadyusha]

Nadyusha, I put all the drying in a large basin, and it costs me this good for a long, long time - it does not interfere, and okay, but it dries well

[Admin]

Admin, Tanya, I don't even have a place to put it, there are 15 kg of sugar-coated apricots in the basin, they are getting ready for drying, so I have to quickly remove

[Jouravl]

Jouravl, Nadezhda, my sweet cherries without sugar after drying are so sweet that while collecting them from the pallets, my fingers stuck together)
And I dry cherries with a stone for compotes, for food I dry with sugar.

[Jouravl]

I freeze pitted cherries, but I still dry them after processing with syrup.
... jerky flies away at the speed of light!

Jouravl Nadia, the same. And after this process I have "all the buckets, all the pots milk busy with syrup. "I put it in jars and roll it up. Then I cook compotes.

[Agata]

Agata, Natasha, I also cook compotes, but I also froze it in ice molds for smoothies, and my husband also requisitioned a three-liter can from me and filled it with vodka, said that I would ask him more
On Monday again to the market for berries, while the season

[Admin]

Admin, Tanyusha, good time of day! I want to thank you again for all the recipes) This year I broke all records for cherries! I processed (within a week) 15kg and now I have 2.5kg of beautiful dried cherries))) I hid it in the freezer and told everyone at home not to even try to pretend))) Still, I like it more than cherries, because I love sour) Although and cherries 1.3kg in the same place 😜 Hands like a Negro) I had to wear gloves. Well, okay, the result is worth it) In general, thank you, thank you, thank you)))) I filled my hand with a cherry, now I'm teaching my friends)))

[Tanyusha]

Tanyusha, good day!
To your health! Delicious cherries for you!
And you thought that yours did not remember where the cherry lies. Remember! Now control your stocks by daily review of packages and weighing

Girls, are you still peeling cherries by hand ?! Just yesterday I experienced a cherry peeler ... my happiness knew no bounds! In 30 minutes I peeled 5 kg of cherries !!!! Hands were clean, as was the whole kitchen! and it is inexpensive. So I highly recommend this helper to your kitchen!

cherries

significant - from the south sides

our cherries are mostly small for such devices, my Teskomovsky bone extractor is idle

About the south you are to the point, but you cleaned Vorobyovka - a smallish cherry, but it was cleaned just fine!
Maybe you shouldn't have your assistant in the corner of the dust ?!))

I would be glad to use it, but ... it doesn’t knock out a pit from all cherries, we have to select larger ones, like this, you cannot overshadow our cherry with a dense skin, often the pit hangs on the peel, it is not convenient

This year I also updated my bone picker. I cleaned the cherries. Despite the fact that, like Irina, the berry will slip through, the bone will hang on the skin, on the whole I was satisfied. Because last year so many cherries and cherries were peeled by hand, I still remember them as a nightmare!

Thank you very much for the recipe!
Cherry is just beginning to sing, well, I’m going straight into it. I put it on for a while .... and hid it in the freezer.
Please advise which stone picker to use for small cherries

bought a dryer last saturday! and how did I live without her? but not about that ...

Please advise which stone picker to use for small cherries

I have my own homemade cherries, smallish (but very fragrant and delicious), made according to this recipe - at first it seemed laborious the process will be, BUT everything turned out to be simple.
the bone separator from my firm "MAYER & BOCH", bought last year for 300 rubles, in the evening separated 10 liters of cherries, well, maybe an hour - and cleanly and quickly !!!

and dried cherries are - WELL VERY TASTY !!!! almost raisins))))) at the weekend I will do more !!! not yet harvested

Thank you very much for the recipe! This is my first experience. And it's very tasty

Admin thanks a lot for the recipe! Here is my "masterpiece" ....

[Zhenya]

The question remains: how to preserve these masterpieces at least until autumn, so that they do not deteriorate in someone's stomach

I barely took away my apricots))). Realistically, only under cover of night to transfer to storage. so as not to be detected!)))

only under cover of night

And so that no one was around, even from a distance and preferably without dogs, so that they would not follow in the footsteps and would not surrender their places and attendances among them there are also lovers of sweets
Yes .... the task was formed

I barely took away my apricots))).

Jerky)?

Or dry))?

Jerky)?

Or dry))?

Soaked in syrup and dried until it stops. Is it jerky or dried?))) Because sugar still does not allow them to dry in sprays.

[Natasha]

Is it jerky or dried?)))

Natasha, according to the book - these are dried fruits. They will never be dry from the presence of sugar in them.
I dried apricots in halves - for a very long time, dried to a "stone" state and darkened. Then I had to soak it, you just can't take them on the bite

Soaked in syrup and dried all the way

And the details ?!

And the details ?!

Halve strong, not "potato" apricots and pour over hot syrup. I had some water in the syrup (700 ml and 2 kg of sugar). Apricots were 5 kg. I poured it with hot syrup, let it stand (at least 12 hours). I poured it into a saucepan (the apricots gave juice and there was already a sea of ​​liquid), boiled it and poured it again. And so 3 times. Then she let it drain and put it in the dryer. Yummy!

my "raisins"

I got to this wonderful recipe, everything worked out: time, desire and harvest.
How much I love this kind of teaching - not just pour sugar, "so sweet", but Such a triple principle is necessary to remove raw juice from berries, replace it with sweet sugar syrup.
No questions about technology, everything is clear, simple and consistent. Thank you!
Now, just to decide how best to store it, I'll try it in the freezer, but somehow I feel sorry for such beauty there ...

From 4 kg of pitted cherries, the output is 1 kg of dried.
It was dried for 5 hours in the oven on two baking sheets at +55 + 65 ° C on convection.

Light, health! And there will be cherry winter

If the berries are well dried, they will calmly survive both the jar and the refrigerator. I don't have a lot of cherries, so I just kept it in the refrigerator

Oh, Ukrainian women are good ..., cherry. And we have not a single cherry on the trees this year, well, not a single one. and all!

[Admin]

Admin, Tanechka, I'm reporting:


This is SOOO tasty !!!! Straight delicacy! Thank you very much for the recipe!
Made, for trial, quite a bit (from 1 kg of pitted cherries). I will definitely do more. Where to get so many cherries
