Apricot compote from apricots for a 3 liter jar

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 1 hr

1. STEP 1

   

   How to prepare apricot compote from apricots for a 3-liter jar for the winter? Prepare the necessary ingredients. Apricots for compote must be selected that are dense, without damage or rot, but ripe

2. STEP 2

   

   Wash the jars with soda and sterilize using one of the usual and reliable methods, for example, in the oven. Place the wet jars in a cold oven on a wire rack with the neck on, turn on 150 degrees, keep the jars in the oven for 20 minutes. Also wash the lids with soda, boil and dry.

3. STEP 3

   

   Fill the jars one-third full with apricots. Boil water in a kettle. Pour boiling water over the apricots in the jars. You need to pour boiling water into the jars in small portions so that the jar does not burst due to a sudden temperature change. Cover the jars with lids and leave for 20 minutes.

4. STEP 4

   

   Then pour the water from the jars into a saucepan; for this it is better to use a special lid with holes so that the apricots do not fall out of the jar. Pour sugar into a saucepan with water. If desired, the amount of sugar can be increased to be sure that the product will not spoil and will be stored for a long time, and simply dilute the finished compote with boiled cold water before serving. Bring the syrup to a boil, stirring with a spoon until the sugar is completely dissolved.

5. STEP 5

   

   Pour boiling syrup over apricots in jars up to the shoulders. Immediately roll up the lids of the jars, turn them upside down, wrap them in a warm blanket and leave overnight until completely cooled at room temperature.

6. STEP 6

   

   Store the jars of compote in a cool pantry until winter. Bon appetit!

I made apricot compote from apricots in a 3 liter jar for the winter using this recipe. A very quick way to prepare apricots directly with pits for the winter. I picked the apricots straight from the tree, good and ripe, but not soft, so that they wouldn’t burst in the jar, but would remain intact. I placed clean apricots with pits in 3-liter jars by eye. I poured boiling water over it and left it to steep for 20 minutes as described in the recipe. I covered the jars with a special lid with holes, drained the apricot-flavored water and added sugar. I added a little less sugar than indicated in the recipe, since my apricots are very sweet. I boiled the syrup, poured it into jars and rolled it up. Everything is very simple and fast. I also put a sprig of mint in one jar for an experiment, I’ll try it in winter) The apricot compote is very tasty, rich and healthy. In winter, the drink will bring both adults and children a lot of vitamins) and you can also eat whole apricots) The compote really came out sunny))) Many thanks to the author!
