The dill will turn out fresh, as if it had just come from the garden. And most importantly, you don't need to mess with it at all. Cases for only 10 minutes maximum.
I used to prepare dill for the winter in two ways:
1. She cut it, mixed it with a lot of salt, put it in jars and put it in the refrigerator. After a while, the dill darkened, the taste changed. The freshness that dill used to have was no longer there.
2. Dried. It's the same here, because dried dill and fresh are different. They differ in color, taste and smell. In general, everything is not right.
But I found the perfect way for myself, which I will now tell you about. So, we need dill, which is very fresh straight from the garden.
I break off the branches and fold them separately, the stems separately.
The twigs are packed in small portions in the most common plastic bags. You don't need to put a lot of dill in the bag. I'll explain why later.
I put the stems in separate bags and put them in the freezer. I do not throw them away, but add them to the meat while cooking the broth. I recently wrote a detailed article about dill and parsley stalks. At the end of the article there is a link to this publication.
And then I take out the frozen twigs, and rub them with my hands right in the bag. Dill crumbles easily, so you don't even have to chop it. In order for the dill to crumble well, there should be a little of it in the bag.
Then I take out the required portion from the bag and add it to the dishes. By the way, it is very convenient to sprinkle cooked dishes with such dill, for example, potatoes or add to soup. The dill defrosts very quickly from the warmth of the hands and a hot dish, it just needs a few seconds.
The taste is excellent, as if fresh dill from the garden! For me, this is now the easiest and best way to preserve dill for the winter.
