Dry Salting of Milk Caps

Salted mushrooms are a great help for winter! Make them! The salting method I'm about to share is very practical. The mushrooms don't darken during the process and don't lose their appetizing appearance. Today I'll salt milk caps, and I invite you to join me — cooking together is more fun)

Instructions

  1. Wash and sort the mushrooms, removing forest debris until they are perfectly clean.

  2. Put the prepared mushrooms in a bucket, cover with cold water, cover with a lid (smaller in diameter) and set a weight (I filled a 3 l jar with water and set it on top — an excellent device).

  3. Put the bucket with the mushrooms in a cool place for 3 days, remembering to replace the water with clean water 2–3 times a day. This removes the bitterness from the mushrooms.

  4. Take the well-soaked mushrooms out of the bucket, clean them and sort them.

  5. Peel the garlic and horseradish root. Leave the cloves whole and cut the horseradish root into pieces.

  6. Sprinkle the mushrooms with salt and place them in prepared clean, dry jars (sprinkle each mushroom with salt individually!). Between the mushroom layers, add garlic cloves, horseradish pieces, peppercorns, and cherry leaves.

  7. When the jars are full to the top, sprinkle the surface with salt and close with nylon lids.

  8. Put the jars in the refrigerator. After 30 days, the mushrooms can be eaten.

  9. These preserves must be stored only in the refrigerator!

  10. Wishing you a cozy winter and delicious preserves)

  11. P.S. Before serving, these mushrooms are usually dressed with vegetable oil and onion cut into thin half-rings.
