The winter of fruits can be as varied as that of vegetables. The easiest are compotes. Next to them are all the jams and marmalades, which we eat warmly at home during the cold winter months. The Bulgarian is an avid lover of winter food and does not fail to prepare one every year.

Compotes, as we mentioned, are the easiest. Everyone knows from their grandmother - the fruits are washed, cleaned and cut. At the bottom of clean, dry jars put sugar to taste - 3-4 tbsp. of large jars. Fill to the top with fruit, pour boiling water, close until the sugar dissolves and then sterilize for 20 minutes.

Apples in our country have an extremely diverse range. However, winter vegetables can be prepared from any variety.

Necessary products: 1 kg. apples, 200 g sugar, 1 and 1/2 lemons, vanilla

Method of preparation: The apples are cleaned and cut into octopuses. Immediately put in cold water with the strained juice of 1 lemon. This is done so that they do not turn black while cutting (if you have decided to put) the remaining fruit.

The apples are strained and arranged in a wide bowl. Sprinkle with sugar. Add the juice of half a lemon and vanilla. The container is filled with water - enough to cover the fruit. Boil for 5 minutes after boiling.

When the compote cools, the apples are distributed in jars and topped up with syrup, if possible strained. The jars are closed and sterilized.
