To get a real homemade kvass, you don't need to buy any blanks. We will manage with the same products from which our parents prepared kvass. Kvass will turn out to be very tasty and healthy. Do not be afraid that the cooking process is lengthy. A good dish doesn't cook quickly.
It is necessary
- Black bread - 700 g,
- sugar - 500 g
- raisins - 10 berries,
- dry baking yeast - 3 g,
- saucepan for 9 liters,
- saucepan for 7 liters,
- plastic bottles with a capacity of 2 liters - 3 pieces.
Instructions
Step 1
Cut the bread into pieces of 50 or 100 grams and put to dry in the oven at 180 degrees. When the pieces of bread turn light brown, our crackers are ready. The breadcrumbs will take about 40 minutes to cook. While the crackers are being prepared, so as not to waste time, put 7 liters of boiling water into a 9-liter saucepan. As soon as the crackers are ready, immediately put them in a saucepan filled with boiling water and add 3 tbsp of sugar. Leave everything to cool down to room temperature.
Step 2
When the water in the pan cools down to room temperature, you need to add yeast - 3 grams, this is a small pinch, and again leave to infuse for at least 8 hours. After that, you need to remove the bread from the pan by squeezing it. Pour the resulting bread tincture using a colander or cheesecloth into another saucepan. This is necessary so that no bread crumbs remain in the finished kvass. Using a funnel, pour 4 tablespoons of sugar into plastic bottles and put 2 raisins in each bottle. Pour the prepared bread tincture into the bottles. Close the lids and shake well to dissolve the sugar.
Step 3
Place the filled bottles in a 9 liter saucepan and fill with very hot water. Leave to cool and infuse for another 8 hours. Then remove the bottles from the pot and leave them at room temperature for another day. After all these procedures, put the bottles with kvass in the refrigerator, and the next day the kvass is completely ready.
