- Rinse the mushrooms and clean off any dirt and debris. Cut them into pieces and put them in a pot. Cover with water, add a little salt, and set over the heat. Cook the mushrooms for 15 minutes after they come to a boil, skimming off the foam. Then let the milk caps cool right in their cooking water and drain them in a colander. Meanwhile, peel and slice the garlic and rinse the cherry leaves under running water. Choose a deep bowl, line the bottom with cherry leaves, and add half the garlic, peppercorns, cloves, and bay leaf. Scald the spices with a little boiling water (literally 1 tablespoon), then add some salt and a layer of mushrooms, then more salt, then mushrooms. Keep filling the bowl this way, sprinkling each layer with salt (2–3 pinches per layer), and top it with the rest of the cherry and bay leaves, then sprinkle with pepper and cloves. Cover the bowl with a plate smaller than its rim and set a weight on top. The mushrooms should be covered by their own juice; if there isn't enough, add a little boiled salted water. In about 5–6 days the mushrooms can be packed into sterile jars and topped off with the remaining brine. Cap the jars and store them in the fridge. Your hot-salted milk caps are ready to eat! Enjoy!
