Dandelion honey

[Lucilia]

Lucilia, Lyudochka with a separate recipe

Wine??? and the recipe for us?

For all! Make out!

I came to say thank you for the recipe. Last year I did, but apparently forgot to report. When she was cooking, the sight of the broth shocked her husband. He kept walking and muttering, only you will take out the sugar and no one will eat. When I boiled it, I poured it into jars and poured the rest into a bowl. The husband tried and said: I cooked a little.
This year he himself helped to pluck dandelions. Here's my honey.

The girls who make this honey
Tell me, do these dandelions weigh in grams? I will not count

Tell me, do these dandelions weigh in grams?

Honestly, I didn't weigh it. I counted. I collected 800 pcs. I didn't think it was that difficult. The main thing is to attack the clearing, where you can quickly dial without unbending.

[Natalyushka]

Natalyushka, how glad I am that honey is to my taste!

Good health to you and your loved ones !!!

And thank you very much for your trust !!!

Tell me, do these dandelions weigh in grams?

Lelechka, every year only on account, I never guessed to weigh ...

By the way, last year I cooked this honey without boiling and with much more lemon juice, I liked the result much more !!!

[Natalia]

I would have to collect it before my husband mowed ... and then they decided to rain. And the dandelions will fade
Natalia, Inna,

[Crochet]

Crochet, Inna, this year I was honored and cooked this honey. It turned out to be a liquid syrup, yesterday I added it to yogurt. Very tasty stuff.
Some of the dandelions have already bloomed and sown. I will collect and cook again. On our site, these dandelions are like shoe polish.

[Svetulya]

Svetulya, oh), I'm so glad that you liked the dandelion-divers !!!

Good health to you and your loved ones !!!

The result is a liquid syrup

An interesting little business turns out, my "honey" has a jelly-like consistency ... however, I keep it in the refrigerator ...

my "honey" has a jelly-like consistency

Inna, so I took a sample from the warm one. While I put it in a dark place in the cabinet.

I brought you, Baby, thanks from Luda Larry. She really asked to thank you for your honey!
Made for 2 servings.

Girls, good afternoon. Already in the subject for a long time there was no one, then I will be noted here. I have my own. So I decided to make this honey too. What can I say ..... my actions a fire interested in a number of living. ... a children's home, so the locals thought I was a city madman and offered me a suitcase for harvesting. Collected dandelions and young brooms from a huge Christmas tree. The Christmas tree paws finished off the audience finally and the people dispersed with screams, where this world is heading. ... all the goodness reached the kitchen. I cooked mono-dandelions separately and added mint to the legs. There were 600 Oduvanovs. Made for 900 gr. sugar and 1 tsp lemon. The syrup as such did not work out - it seemed to me that there was not enough water - I added so that it would be possible to get to the water by ramming it in a pan. Spilled it, it was liquid. It turned out 1.5 liters. and I'll see how it will be cooled down. Storage, as I understand it, in the refrigerator. But the question with freezing, is it possible to freeze? Maybe with this ratio, dandelion-sugar won't stand in the refrigerator? I don't want to add sugar anymore - and it's so very sweet. ... it doesn't taste great yet, but unusual. Let's wait about a week - we will shoot a sample

I collected the first dandelions, it came out 450 grams - about 400 heads are obtained, taking into account that the dandelions were weighed washed, wrung out. I cook the first porcai.
I read something that it is necessary to insist overnight, I will try with this portion, infusion, squeeze and cook with sugar tomorrow evening ...

Dandelion honey is also great in the room, rolled up in jars like jam. A month ago, I opened a can that stood for 2 years. Nothing happens to him. On the subject of dandelions, I will say that they make good wine. The recipe is somewhere on our forum. I've been making wine for 2 years now, all the guests like it.

[Dandelion honey]

Dandelion honey (how we cook)
1. Collect 200 pcs. dandelion flowers, without stems. We cook more concentrated honey, that is, we take not 200 dandelion flowers, but 400 pieces, the rest of the ingredients according to the recipe.
2. Pour the flowers with cold water, let them sit in cold water for a while, while the dishes and other ingredients are being prepared, so that the insects caught with the flowers crawl out of the flowers and float, quickly rinse with cold water and squeeze.
3. Pour the washed flowers with 0.5 liters of water (otherwise, it will turn out too liquid) and boil for 30 minutes.
4. Allow the flowers in the broth to cool to room temperature. Drain the infused broth, carefully squeeze the flowers and discard, combine the squeezed broth with the previously drained part of the broth.
5. Bring pure flower broth without flowers to a boil.
6. Into the boiled flower broth add 1 kg of sugar and cook for 45 minutes over low heat, like jam, stirring and not allowing a strong boil.
7. Introduce juice from one lemon (or just finely cut lemon with peel, but without pits) or 5 g of citric acid (1 tsp without a slide) into a slightly boiling boiled flower syrup and continue boiling at low boil for another 15 minutes.
8. Pour the finished dandelion honey into jars. Store at room temperature. We pour into small, no more than 0.5 liters, cans, under screw caps. Everything is perfectly stored in the room.

[OgneLo]

OgneLo, and if the concentration of dandelions is greater, did not try, how will it stand?
I didn't write it down last year, now I can't remember, but there were cans in the fridge ...
Tomorrow I will again go for dandelions - it is necessary to free a place for the beds, specially waiting for the dandelion harvest with my daughters.



Girls!
At the beginning of the topic there is a restriction on eating this honey due to joint diseases - 3 teaspoons a day, no more, but I did not find information on the Internet ...

[kartinka]

kartinka, I wrote how we cook and store (this recipe, in the version I described, is more than 30 years old). More concentrated will be unnecessary. We grow dandelions not only for this honey, but also for adding fresh young leaves to the salad.

about dandelion

When cooking, we often use this particular dandelion honey instead of the honey or syrup provided in the recipe.

[OgneLo]

OgneLo, Marina ま り な, for 400 pieces 0.5 l. water? Right ?

Right ?

Yes, that's how we cook.

Today we collected a small basket again - what happens if we count in pieces - for one normal dandelion you can collect 5 small ones - we have, for some reason, it seems like different dandelions - there are on plump and thin stalks - it turns out a different amount, I'll try to focus on those filled with water (so that it does not cover at the beginning, but covers at the first cooking)
I read somewhere that sugar should be taken from the solution obtained from the first cooking * 1.5 and lemon at the rate of 1 lemon per 0.5 liters of this initial solution-decoction ... then it seems like it just stands in a room under a nylon lid. I read it, but I haven't thought about it yet

By the way, last year I cooked this honey without boiling and with a much larger amount of lemon juice, I liked the result much more

Hello! Sorry to be dull, but how is it * without boiling *?

one normal dandelion can be 5 small

We consider dandelions to be normal flowers.

Girls, Innochki something I will not try, I will ask-
Now I felt sorry for the sugar, and the dandelions ... do not end ... and the dandelions are so handsome - fluffy and clean ...
I decided this - I make a decoction, I insist, and I pour the second portion of dandelions with it - and sterilize the concentrated decoction in jars. So it takes less cans. Will it be normal to cook (cook) with sugar / lemon then?

[kartinka]

kartinka, but will not sour without sugar? I would not dare so.

[Elya_lug]

Elya_lug, I stew & lick the broth in cans in a stock (on the stove, laziness ...) it turns out, after all, like canned food ...

[kartinka]

kartinka, in this version, double sterilization is needed with a daily exposure between them.

Inna, thanks for the recipe!

Girls, no one measured how many dandelion flowers fit in a glass? Not to count! Today I will try to measure with glasses, if the rain does not drive home.

[Rada-dms]

Rada-dms, olechka! I have a bowl, it will fit + - 3500 pieces

I scored a little, about 500, tomorrow I'll cook something. The lemons are over ...
But every year I cook something useful from garden plants, I will get out.

Not to count!

This is a brain exercise!

Not to count!

I got lost in the second hundred)))) And who weighed to weigh? Not interesting by the piece

[OlgaGera]

OlgaGera, Lelka, they are all different in size, but today I will weigh 200 pieces. Although mine have already been compressed in the refrigerator, I will still fill the glass more tightly and count how many pieces are in it. It seems to me that it is important to observe the ratio of liquid to sugar, and the more concentration, the better.
I decided to add some currant and blackberry leaves and lemons, since there are no lemons.

This is a brain exercise!

Her ... just recalculating watts is not very interesting, I like to add, subtract, solve problems in my mind. This is more effective for training the brain. We often compete with my husband, she's a calculator, I'm in my mind. I often beat a tough programmer-mathematician, although my ability to math is average!

Marinochka, when I do mechanical work, I listen to messages on work or think over the tactics of managing clients. So the brain is even overloaded ...
