Homemade rye flour kvass

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 2 day

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make kvass from rye flour? Prepare your food. Try to find raisins that have not been processed for long-term storage - they may be unsightly, but healthy. Any bread will do, fresh or stale. Boil water and cool to 70 degrees. Sugar can be replaced with honey, which will make kvass even healthier. It is better to take peeled rye flour; it is more natural and healthier. Pour it into a deep saucepan.

2. STEP 2

   

   Gradually, stirring constantly to avoid lumps, pour water into the pan with the flour. Add sugar and stir. Leave the mixture to cool completely.

3. STEP 3

   

   Measure out the required amount of raisins. There is no need to rinse it, since there are bacteria on the surface that will participate in the fermentation process.

4. STEP 4

   

   Slice the bread, remove the crumb, you will only need the crusts.

5. STEP 5

   

   Add the bread crusts and raisins to the completely cooled water and rye flour mixture. Cover the pan with gauze to allow the mixture to “breathe” and place in a cool place for two days. Do not put it in the refrigerator, the temperature there is too low, the fermentation process will not begin.

6. STEP 6

   

   As soon as foam appears on the surface, the kvass is ready, strain it and pour it into jars and bottles, store in the refrigerator. You can add mint to taste. Tasty and healthy kvass with rye flour is ready, bon appetit!
