Linden "honey"

Linden honey

Ingredients

Linden flowers 1 glass
Sugar 2.5KG
Lemon acid 1 tsp
Water 1.3 liters

Cooking method

  • Pour linden flowers with cold water, bring to a boil. Reduce heat, simmer for 20 minutes. Remove flowers, squeeze out. Put sugar in the broth (it will already be viscous) and boil for another 40 minutes over low heat, then add citric acid, stir and let it boil again. Remove from heat, cool, pour into jars. Consistency like May honey. Very fragrant and delicious. I gave children for colds, used molasses instead of maple syrup.

Thanks for the recipe! Do you cook with dry color? Or are we waiting for summer?
madam.stv1
I cooked from fresh (sometimes slightly wilted flowers). But I think you can even dry it, push it tightly into a glass.

Thanks for the interesting recipe. Now I'm waiting for the linden blossom. : flowers: Tell me, is it better to collect linden flowers before or after the rain ?!

Oooooo, my mother cooked such honey as a child and also from elderberry flowers, I remember how I ate it with beans, I was so dead, everything was wrong for me, but I loved this honey!
madam.stv1
It is better to collect in the morning, you can also after the rain.

madam.stv1Thank you very much for the recipe! I made this "honey". Honestly, until he got ready, I still doubted that I would get something. But the result impressed me very, very much! It tastes almost like real honey! The consistency is freshly pumped honey! And the color is good! I can't admire my jars! Made strictly according to the recipe. Everything worked out! I recommend everyone to cook while the linden is blooming!
And here is my linden honey:

Scarlett, yes, the jars are beautiful! I have not yet put them in storage in the cellar. And when I pass by, I stop and admire! But I got 4 jars of half a liter.

Olga, I do not know what to say. This was my first experience with a lime tree. I think you can try if you have a lot of dried flowers.

The linden tree has finally bloomed here too! True, the flowers are not very fragrant, but they still picked up a tightly packed glass. I did everything strictly according to the recipe, but at the moment of adding citric acid, some sixth sense prompted to remove the pan from the stove in case of an inadequate reaction from the syrup. I also thought, maybe I could put the saucepan in some bigger container ... but nothing was found and as a result I just put it in the sink ... Girls ... le addition of 1 h / l lim. acid and slow stirring, such a violent reaction began, as if I shook a bottle of champagne for a long time, and then opened ... As a result, 1/3 of the syrup ran away irrevocably. I wonder if this is just me?
But the remaining honey is so beautiful and even fragrant, despite the fact that the flowers smelled somehow very little.
madam.stv1, thanks for the recipe, but still wondering what kind of strange reaction I had?

Now different citric acid.I also have Soviet mixed with sugar. Probably you need to add it by removing it from the stove and very gradually.

My acid, too, is not the first freshness, it removed it from the stove and interfered gradually ... When everything foamed and poured over the edge, to be honest, I was glad for myself that I would not have to at least wash the stove

And your syrup didn't foam at all?
madam.stv1
Foaming, but not running away. A teaspoon must be taken without a top. Now comes across a very strong acid. In Soviet times, it was softer. A recipe from the 80s. Maybe take a little less acid. You can also take a larger saucepan at once.

madam.stv1Despite my small losses, I still want to thank you again! The recipe is very interesting and I will use it more than once!

Tatyana, madam.stv1maybe I had the wrong citric acid, but there was not even a hint of such a reaction. True, I kind of salted honey with lemon. She poured a little and interfered ...
Florichka
Well, I found this recipe, and the linden tree has faded long ago. I took it to bookmarks until next year. It's a shame! But I have 6 century-old lindens at my dacha, and I have not yet collected the color.

Vooot ... now I also think that you need to add gradually, but I just measured out a teaspoon (from the bread machine) and sprinkled it, it remained on top of the syrup, and when it began to stir with a spoon, the syrup seemed to boil, well, "poper" from a 4-liter saucepan ..

And we have just started, so I will experiment more

Shikprno! Do you also need to make from elderberry?
Elya_lug
I picked lindens, I urgently need advice: the recipe says "linden flowers". Take only flowers or the whole flower on a stick with a leaf?
Ulia_M
madam.stv1Thank you very much for the linden honey recipe! We have a lot of lindens and have not yet begun to bloom, so I saw the recipe on time and immediately to the bookmarks! But such a question - does it not become sugar during storage? So it remains liquid?

Elya, I tore only flowers, tried without a stick.

Juliawhen it is hermetically closed for storage, it is not sugar-coated. And only when a little bit remains in the jar, it can become sugar-coated if they did not manage to finish it. But a full open jar is not candied. And even half a jar.
Elya_lug
lappl1, Thank you, Lyuda has already cut it off. put to cook.

Elya, good honey to you!

well, if so, then he simply will not have time to sugar, because our jars of honey fly away very quickly and do not remain half empty
Sindi
Ludmila, thanks for the recipe, I love linden very much, its aroma. Tell me, can you only treat a cold with the help of this honey, or are there other medicinal properties?
lappl1
SindiGulya, it was not me who posted the recipe, but madam.stv1, thanks her. I just answered the girls, because I made "honey" according to this recipe, and we liked it very much. I do not think that many useful substances remain in it, since it is still cooked. It is better to dry linden flowers for treatment at a low temperature in a dryer.
Sindi
Okay thanks for the advice
paramed1
Gulya, it is simply called honey because of its consistency. And the cooking technology is like jam. So there is little benefit to them. You dry the flowers together with the bractal leaf, but so that in a year, a maximum of two, the linden flowers lose their medicinal properties after two years.
I'm also waiting for the linden tree to bloom, I really want to do at least a little, since I don't eat real honey.
Elya_lug
I boiled honey, I liked the result! Poured into jars with a twist, left a little for now. I love liquid honey, now I have it. She poured the broth with sugar into a multi bowl, wanted to cook in the "steaming" mode, after 5 minutes the cartoon turned off, in the "stewing" mode I also did not want to cook honey. It was about the same when I cooked from dandelions, probably too thick liquid. I decided to cheat and put on "baked goods". It worked, the honey boiled evenly. I took it to my neighbors for tasting, they said that it was delicious liquid honey.
Sindi
Veronica, Thank you
BlackHairedGirl
And I cooked it, it cools down. We'll try tomorrow. Thanks for the recipe! Increased citric acid fourfold, it tastes better for us. Everything else is prescription. Output - 2 l 250 ml.

Girls, no one weighed how many grams of linden flowers are in a glass?

And what, is it really possible to separate each flower from a branch?

lappl1
Crochet, I did not weigh or measure the number of flowers at all. I put everything that I collected. I clearly had more flowers than the recipe needed.

And what, is it really possible to separate each flower from a branch?
I immediately tore from the tree - only flowers. And in the gazebo, Veronica wrote that yes, it is necessary, otherwise there will be an unpleasant taste.
Crochet
Lyudochka, thank you very much, my dear !!!

Lyudochka, did you take the amount of water and sugar according to the recipe)?

Did you reduce sugar?
lappl1
Kroshik, yes, I took everything else by prescription. I just wanted to make the solution richer. I also did the fireweed "honey". Flowers put 2 times more than the recipe.
Crochet
Lyudochka, I'm the same ...

In dandelions, honey is always 1.5-2 times more "hats" I throw, for greater saturation ...
lappl1
Kroshik, we think the same way. Do this now.
Venera007
Here is some kind of beauty))) we collect flowers, dry, but did not cook honey. I will definitely try! A husband with a sweet tooth loves such things)))
V-tina
Girls, maybe someone knows .. and this honey goes under the roll? I just don't have a place to store it like that, I would like to roll it up and hide it in the pantry
lappl1
Tina, I did so. Hot honey was rolled into jars and kept in the underground.
V-tina
Lyudochka, Thank you!
win-tat
And I didn't roll it up at all, I closed the hot one with screw caps and turned the jar on the lid until it cooled down. Just recently the last can was brought, with pancakes it is very tasty! So it stood perfectly for a whole year without a refrigerator, "by the cupboard".

win-tat, Tanya, I did that too if there was a jar with a screw cap. It depends on the bank. If you pour it into a simple one, then you have to roll it up.
win-tat
Ludmila, I just have these cans screwed up "like shoe polish", but there are no simple ones at all, so I wondered why roll it up if you can just close it.
lappl1
Tatyana, well, I see ... We proceed from our own conditions. The main thing is to ensure sterility. Then it will be stored perfectly.
win-tat
Sterility is sacred, I sterilize the jars, boil the lids.
