Apple compote from apples 3 liter jar for winter

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   How to cook apple compote in a three-liter jar? First of all, prepare everything you need.

2. Step 2:

   

   The amount of apples and water is approximate and will depend on the juiciness of the apples, as well as on your desire to make compote of different saturation. Choose fruits that are not very large, of medium size.

3. Step 3:

   

   First thoroughly wash the prepared apples and jar.

4. Step 4:

   

   Fill the jar with 1/2 apples (I filled a little more than half - in winter, such compote can be diluted). The minimum amount in my opinion is 1/3 of the volume of the jar.

5. Step 5:

   

   Now boil the water and fill the jar with apples with boiling water to the top. Leave the jar of apples to infuse overnight.

6. Step 6:

   

   The next day, the water level in the jar will become less, as the fruits will absorb some of the water (how much they will absorb depends on the juiciness or dryness of the fruits). Pour boiled water to the very edge.

8. Step 7:

   

   Now drain the liquid from the jar into the pan.

9. Step 8:

   

   Add sugar to this liquid and bring the syrup to a boil.

10. Step 9:

    

    Pour boiling syrup over the apples and roll up the jar with an iron lid.

11. Step 10:

    

    Turn the jar upside down, wrap it with a warm blanket and leave it in this form until it cools down completely. Then remove the jars of compote to a cool place: a cellar or a pantry. After about a month, the compote can be opened and drunk.

    Bon appetit!
