So let's prepare this drink, which can be consumed to everyone, regardless of age. And even those who have weak or torn stomach will be very grateful for delicious, natural Russian kissel.
To begin, boil two liters of water
and 400 grams fresh or frozen berries, such as dogwood,
strawberries,
cherries,or mixtures thereof,
full-bodied, and make closer to a syrup compote. It will take you 20 ... 25 minutes, no more. Drain the berries and discard, you no longer need.
Add 250 ... 300 grams of sugar, stir,
and in half a liter of warm, but not cold and certainly not hot water, dissolve 5 tablespoons of potato starch.
Stir well to avoid lumps, and the liquid became completely homogeneous, and a thin stream, stirring constantly, pour in the compote with sugar. Add water up to three liters, and stirring constantly, bring to a boil. Practice shows that for cooking of the kissel is best to get stainless, not enamel pan, so it won't stick. But still, you need to stir constantly.
Boiled pudding cook 1 ... 2 minutes and ladle into mugs. So, when it will cool a little in each Cup is delicious, viscous film, that is loved by both children and adults.
Bon appetit.
