Blooming Sally
Ivan-tea (Blooming Sally) last year, we have already tried to pick and do, it's really late and a little bit. But all the same it was pleasant and the process was interesting. Have decided to repeat. The end of June - the beginning of July - the most normal time for collecting Blooming Sally (kipreya). Blossoms, beauty, juice are many. And the weather is usually what we usually have in Siberia, it's hot, a little bit with a breeze, not a single gnat or gnats. Only placers of forest strawberries underfoot, along the way, and collect it and weld the jam!
In general, we typed Blooming Sally, and processed as best they could. I understand that in this case, how many people, so many recipes and tricks, after we all did at home with our tea-cup, I found a cool and detailed material. Because the most lazy thing in the world is to write a description yourself. I wanted to use the text of one resource, even made a request to them - but they did not care about me, they did not even give me an answer.
But I had to write here myself. In short, Blooming Sally can be cut with a stem, stepping from the bottom of the quarter, there are usually all sorts of rubbish bitten leaves, or you can straighten just the right leaves in the field, it's more convenient for you. If Ivan-tea (Blooming Sally) is dusty and dirty - you can rinse it and then dry it on towels. If clean - you can not do this at all.
When all the leaves were torn off and the flowers were blown off, it is necessary to lay it all together and give a couple of hours to sweat, I do not know why. I did not do it. Maybe it's easier to knead it later, but I usually do it. By the way, flowers can be put with leaves, but it is better, they say, they are simply sown separately, aesthetically correct solution. But do not take the seed boxes, they are nasty, terrible!
Then take our leaves and hellish knead, in any way known to you. It is possible with the application of the object and aggregates. Even use a meat grinder with a large mesh. I like to knead my hands like a dough. If there is a lot of Blooming Sally, it may not be easy, you can rub the corns even. Knead scary. A little tear. Another knead is very scary. The leaf should darken and give juice! You will feel it with your hands. It can be directly squeezed out almost. It means that everything is fine.
Then we add our crushed spray (Blooming Sally) to the fermentation. Enamelled or glassware. Recommend under a slight yoke, I put them in jars and without any oppression, just tamped my wife's hands, not too hard. We leave Ivan-tea under a wet towel in a dark place for fermentation. It took me 24 hours. There is a stunned berry smell !!! This is the main feature. We just had a fresh forest strawberry, and so - the smell is the same! Only Blooming Sally is weaker. So you can dry it.
Dry as you please. You can even in a pillowcase in the shade in the breeze. I dry in the oven at 110 degrees and convection, only a ten, without gas. I had to dry in two sets, a sheet of paper on a baking sheet do not pour too much! It dried up in two hours, two pans at once on two levels, changed them once in places.
Ivan tea will darken and it will begin to rustle! Actually everything! Ivan-tea (Blooming Sally) is ready. Although some say that there is still dry fermentation, and that over time it becomes only better.
In any case, the process is interesting, creative and fascinating. Well, Ivan-tea (Blooming Sally) is free (almost), tasty and useful!
