Do you also have at least a few currant shrubs in the garden? You may have dropped them yourself, maybe there are still their grandparents who could not imagine the garden without currant. And they knew what they were doing. The crop is usually at least sufficient. But what to do with currant when you don’t need a lot of jars of jam?
Can we discuss a long time about which currant is the tastiest – red, white, or perhaps the black one? It does not matter, because the acidic taste of each of them is perfect for both cakes and Christmas cookies, or as a refreshing syrup. But when the crop is figuratively overwhelmed over our heads, every advice is suitable for its further possible processing. At the moment, there is nothing easier than to freeze the small balls and enjoy the time to think about its use.

We can do it wrong or well
How to freeze the currant? Sure – we can simply pour it into the bag and put it in the freezer… or we can do it really well, which will certainly be a better solution. We want not to preserve only a strange acidic matter for future use, but to remain as specific taste as possible, and as well as shape. When we use the right freezing procedure, we can get all this for the whole year.

Preparation is the foundation
The main emphasis on this work must be placed on the correct preparation of the fruit before we close it in the freezer. First, the balls need to be ripped out of the stopwatch. Be careful not to squeeze them as far as possible. The help of small children in this case may not be the best choice, but the ragged balls can be very well used to prepare delicious lemonade.
Wash and dry
Once the currants are ragged, repair it well in cold water and check everything in the container to only have quality and healthy fruits in the container. Following as possible as possible as possible, do not rush, because it is really very important. Let it drain first and then sprinkle on a baking tray, lined with paper towels. Allow it to dry for a few minutes before we can work with it.
Do not make freezing not even headlessly
Clean, taken over and dry currants can slowly point to the freezer. But in order to achieve even more advantageous variants of this convenience, let us enjoy a really loose and non -sticky currant, which we can simply spill out of the bag in the required quantity – without using the ax.
Pre -rapping is a great idea
So first spread the prepared currants on a baking tray or to the bottom of another suitable container that we can. Make sure the balls do not touch as far as possible, so let them freeze. In a few hours, the currant will be small hard balls, and only then can you fall into a bag or a closable box suitable for the freezer. Thanks to the pre -emphasizing the balls no longer stick (unless of course electricity does not fall and their “permission” does not occur).
So that the currant does not smell like mushrooms …
For storing the currant in the freezer use airtight bags and containers, ie those that can be sealing well. This is the only way to remain currants and frozen mushrooms with mushrooms. The food stored in the refrigerator usually has an unpleasant ability to absorb their “neighbors” odors, and we certainly do not want that. Do you have frozen? Great, now you can not surprise you even the request for the currant cake in January.
