How to preserve dill for the winter

To please yourself with aromatic dill in winter, it is prepared for future use. Harvesting greens for the winter can be done in three main ways: drying, freezing, and salting.
  • how to dry dill for the winter

It is necessary to collect dill for drying in the morning, when the dew has disappeared. Under no circumstances should it be collected after rain.
Before drying, dill must be carefully prepared: sorted, rinsed in cool water and allowed to drain.
Now the dill is laid out on a sheet of clean white paper in the shade so that it is not exposed to direct sunlight. Only in this way will dill retain its natural beneficial properties and attractive appearance.
Dill can be dried in another way - in bunches hung on a rope. Drying is carried out in a well-ventilated cool room.
Dill should not be dried for too long. In good clear weather it will dry in 2-3 days. It's very easy to check. A dried sprig of dill is easily crushed into powder.
Store dried herbs in glass containers, so they will retain their appearance and aroma, and will not absorb moisture. Jars with tight-fitting lids work well for this.
  • how to freeze dill for the winter

Freezing dill is a very good way to store herbs. Many people prefer freezing to drying, since frozen dill retains vitamins and essential oils, and the taste and appearance of dill from the freezer is just like fresh. There are three ways to freeze dill for the winter: whole plants, chopped and in ice cubes.
The freshest and most aromatic plants are selected for freezing. The dill is sorted, washed and left to dry. Next, depending on the chosen method of freezing dill:
- cut into portions and put in a container, jar or bag, in which I will store it in the freezer;
- wrapped whole in a bag;
- chopped dill is placed in ice trays and filled with water.
Frozen greens can be stored for a long time, but they should not be re-frozen. When freezing dill, pack it into several small bags or containers to thaw only the amount of greens you need.
  • how to pickle dill for the winter

Dill can not only be added to preparations, but can also be preserved separately. To do this, chopped greens are mixed with salt and vinegar and closed in a sterilized container. Or you can simply pickle dill according to this recipe.
We thoroughly wash and sort the dill, tearing the greens from the stem. Chop the dill and place in a large bowl. Add salt (for one bunch of unsorted dill, which is grasped with the thumb and middle finger of the hand, use 1 tablespoon with a top of salt). Grind the salted dill thoroughly in a bowl so that it softens and releases the juice. Let it sit for half an hour and put it into clean glass jars with a screw-on lid. Salted dill should be placed in the container very tightly, in small portions, so that there are no empty spaces. You can add a pinch of salt on top before twisting. Store in the refrigerator on the door.

Dill is an annual herbaceous plant from the Apiaceae family. As a garden plant, it is distributed everywhere, and in the wild it can be found in Asia Minor, Iran, the Himalayas, and North Africa. It became a cultivated plant a long time ago, back in Ancient Egypt, about 5000 years ago, it was used to season dishes. In Ancient Greece and Rome, dill was used both as a seasoning and as a medicine. On the territory of Russia it became known in the 10th century AD.

Dill has a rather weak taste; it is valued primarily for its pleasant aroma. it is used fresh, salted or dried, adding to hot and cold dishes, marinades, and pickles. In addition, due to the content of phytoncides, dill protects canned food from spoilage and mold.

This modest-looking plant contains an impressive amount of useful substances: essential oils, flavonoids, vitamin C, carotene, thiamine, riboflavin, folic, ascorbic and nicotinic acids, calcium, potassium, phosphorus and iron salts, flavonoids - quercetin, isorhamnetin and kaempferol, pectin substances, carbohydrates and a set of mineral salts.

It regulates the activity of the gastrointestinal tract, normalizes metabolism, reduces blood pressure, and has a beneficial effect on the functioning of the heart. Dill is also extremely beneficial for the kidneys; it relieves the symptoms of kidney diseases and cystitis.

When purchasing dill, pay attention to the condition of the leaves and stems of the plant. They should not be limp, in addition, there should be no dark green leaves stuck together, the tip of the stem should be elastic. Yellowed leaves, and even more so, an unpleasant odor, indicate the beginning of putrefactive processes.

Fresh dill can be stored for two to three days at room temperature with the stems dipped in water, and for a week in the refrigerator in the vegetable compartment.

Dill is very easy to prepare for the winter. To do this, just dry it in the shade, in the fresh air.

Dill improves the taste and appearance of food and stimulates appetite. Dill can be added anywhere: to soups, salads, main courses, cheeses, cottage cheese. Dill umbrellas are added when canning, the seeds are used to flavor teas, marinades, and vinegar.

Dill is present in a huge number of dishes: sometimes clearly, and sometimes almost imperceptibly. For example, a variety of salads are rarely complete without fragrant dill. It will be an excellent snack or first course at lunch: there are few ingredients in it, but each one is exactly in its place, creating a unique refreshing taste of the dish. The classic one is also not complete without dill.

Peel and cut the garlic every slice into 4 parts.

In a deep frying pan, mix citric acid, butter, sugar, salt, garlic, bay leaf. Boil the mixture for 7 - 8 minutes, then cool it slightly.

Place dill in pre-disinfected jars and pour marinade over it.

Sterilize the jars for 5 - 7 minutes in a deep bowl with boiling water.

Take out and roll up the cans. Cool the pieces and put them in a cool place (refrigerator or cellar).
