It is important to regularly clean the foam while boiling mushrooms.

Marinas are easy to pickle. Boletus should only be selected good, medium size, without the slightest sign of worminess. When pickling, the types of mushrooms are not mixed. They must be selected in size, cut off the roots, washed from dirt and debris. Water is poured into the cookware (for each kilogram of mushrooms, half a glass of water).

Our ancestors did this in the oven or above it, now it is dried in the oven, at 70 degrees. Moisture coming out of the mushrooms is best ventilated. Properly dried mushrooms should not crumble.

Mushrooms must be dried on a flat surface in a well-ventilated area.

A simple and old way of salting is cold. Boletus are laid out in an even layer on the bottom, then salted. Salt is enough 50 g per kilogram. Having salted, they are covered with oppression from a tree and put a load on it. When the mushrooms settle, they add new ones until the dishes are full.

After three days, you should look at the level of brine. He must cover the mushrooms on top. At low brine levels, the weight of the load is added. It takes 1 to 1.5 months for the product to be ready.

Hats, if large, can be cut in half or in three. Per kilogram of product you will need: 2 tbsp. tablespoons of salt, 1 bay leaf, 3 peas of pepper, 5 g of dill, a pinch of clove and 1 sheet of black currant. Water is poured into the container (100 g per kilogram of mushroom mass). After the water boils, add the boletus. Be sure to stir: the spices will dissolve and everything will boil better. It is necessary to remove the resulting foam. Spices are added after boiling water. Cook for about 20 minutes. The readiness of mushrooms is determined by their subsidence to the bottom, while the liquid should become transparent. They are cooled and laid out in banks, then they are poured with brine and closed. Salted boletus can be eaten in a month.
