Modern housewives cook jam less and less often, and freeze their harvest more often.
This applies to home-made preserves from berries and fruits. This method of processing takes little time. But the most important thing is that the preserves remain just as healthy. We will tell you how to freeze raspberries.
Three important points
1. Do not wash raspberries before freezing. All bacteria that may remain on the berries will die from the low temperature. And wet raspberries will turn into an ice lump.
2. Only fresh berries are frozen whole. It is better to use bruised and wilted ones for making puree.
3. It is best to freeze berries in small containers.
How to freeze
1. Simply pour the raspberries into a dry, airtight bag and tie it in a knot, leaving a little air, and then place it in the freezer.
2. The easiest way is to mash the raspberries with sugar. Before putting it in the freezer, the puree should be left to stand for 15 minutes so that the sugar dissolves.
3. If sugar is contraindicated, you can use honey instead. On average, 1 part honey is taken for 5 parts berries.
