leaves of garden plants	1 kg
fruits and berries	0.300 kg

Cooking method

• And it all started with the fact that one fine morning I looked into the refrigerator, and there was a handful of berries in a bowl, had a snack of champagne the other day))). And there are raspberries, cherries and peaches in this bowl. Well, I used the peach for its intended purpose), and decided to put everything else into tea, since for a long time I was haunted by the idea of ​​making tea with fresh fruit ...
• 
• I took out a bag with currant and pear leaves from the freezer
• 
• In a meat grinder, I first twisted the berries, the seeds from the cherries were of course removed, and on top of the scrolled berries I twisted frozen leaves.
• 
• Then she scrolled the resulting mass again, took it with a spoon so that both granules and scrolled berries fell. These are the wet granules.
• 
• Then she took out another bag with leaves from the freezer, so it turned out to be a wild pear, an apple tree and a little fireweed.
• 
• Scrolled the leaves in a meat grinder
• Here in this photo on the left there are granules with berries, on the right are simple granules from leaves
• 
• Mixed two kinds of granules

• And she played it again in a meat grinder
• 
• The granules turned out to be excellent, strong, keep their shape and do not fall apart. I sent it to a slow cooker for fermentation for 5 hours, then to the oven. Here's a tea after the oven
• 
• I brewed it, put 1 teaspoon on a glass, excellent amber color.
• 
• According to the aroma, in a dry form, a raspberry-pear aroma, in a brewed one, it tastes sour, like that of karkade, what it smells like, it smells delicious.)))))

• There were 250-300 grams of berries.
• Tea turned out in dry form about 0.300 grams (by eye), did not weigh.
• Berry sourness in tea gives it a special piquancy, it is pleasant to drink.
• In the same way she made tea from fireweed with apricot. Delicious!

Natasha, today I have some kind of holiday! First, Lina exhibited recipes with willow tea stems. And you showed us such beauty. It's great that your post last year became a recipe. I had little time to make last year according to your tea recipe (currants). But what happened was so pleased that I now recommend everyone to add some berries to the leaves!
Natasha, thank you very much for the recipe! I am sure that many will take it into service.

Natasha, congratulations on the recipe!
Last year, according to your recipe, I made granulated apricot leaf tea with peach. But she fried it harder than necessary and put it away for storage. You can see the time has come for brewing tea.

[Irina]

Irina, the leaves first withered, and then froze in the bag. Autumn leaves are coarser than summer leaves; after freezing, granules are more easily twisted and fermented faster.

[Light]

Light, I have a slow cooker, but the old Panasonic and there is no yogurt program, what should I do?

And again: sorry: how to wither correctly?

Yes, yes, very interesting, please tell me how you can do this in a conventional oven ?? Well, I kind of read fermentation like they made fireweed - they twisted it too and it fermented for a day, and then it was dried in the oven at low power, what clarifications would you make? Must the temperature be during fermentation? Well, fermentation, that is .. That year I tried to do it too, put it in a greenhouse in the heat, but overexposed after a long time, there was no way to dry it further, and a day later the mass was already dry .. It was nonsense .. Made from fireweed.
And fresh leaves will do, as I understand it?

[pitch]

how to wither correctly?

what clarifications will you make?

pitch, Galax, answers to all your questions and a lot of information is contained in the main topic
Fermented tea made from leaves of garden and wild plants (master class)
This recipe, one might say, is a branch of the main topic, so that it is always at hand and not lost.

I support Elena - read CAREFULLY the basics of making tea, understand what withering and fermentation, temperature conditions are, without this nothing will work! Each fermented teas topic has links on the first page and answers to the most frequently asked questions.

[pitch]

no yogurt program, what should i do?

pitch, see Zechariah green tea. There in the oven.

[pitch]

pitchFor a long time I have been withering in a linen sheet. If it does not wither well, I change the sheet to dry. Sometimes dry up to two days. And for fermentation you don't need any tools.

Natasha, thank you for such a hint.
Last season, your idea just saved a batch of autumn apple leaves from the trash can. The leaf was large, beautiful, but rather dry. After the freezer, I did not want to be granulated, crumbled to dust. Tried double-triple scrolling didn't help. And then the viburnum berries caught my eye, I remembered your stories and ... voila! I added just a little bit of berries, ran it a couple more times so that the mixture was more homogeneous, but what kind of granules it turned out. The combination of apple leaf-viburnum, by the way, is very successful.
Yesterday, I was spinning geraniums, they also did not want to form granules, I really regretted that there were no berries at hand. And only today I remembered about the strawberries in the garden, you bastard. I think things 4-5 would fix the situation. Well, nothing, there is another package of geraniums in the freezer, it will be with strawberries
I will also make such seagulls, in other variations

[Natalo4-ka]

Natalo4-kateasing everything with your geraniums?

Girls, thank you all for your kind words!
We left for the village for the weekend, as I can write and answer all questions ...

Girls! Thank you so much for your advice !!!

All good morning!

I will definitely use it. Just tomorrow I was going to rip off the cherry leaves. Here with the berries and I'll scroll.

I can already imagine what flavor it will be!

How many delicious things! Thanks for the recipe!

To your health!

Natasha, thank you very much for the recipe! I am sure that many will take it into service.

Thank you Luda for your kind words, I will only be glad if my experience is useful.

How to ferment in a cartoon?

I have recently been to save electricity: victory: first I warm up the cartoon for about 15 minutes on the program, empty yogurt, without tea, then turn it off, put the tea and close the lid. After 2 hours, I also turn on again for about 15 minutes with tea inside and turn it off again. And I also do the third time in 2 hours. Tea ferments perfectly

Natasha, congratulations on the recipe!

Thank you!

Irina, the leaves first withered, and then froze in the bag

They also sweat from me in the first bags, while I take them home. In the morning on Sunday I collect, and only in the evening we arrive in Kiev, you open the package, and there are such aromas !!!!! Especially from fireweed !!! Just a bomb)

please tell me how you can

Thank you girls for sending you to the right place
There, Lyudmila told all the subtleties and nuances of tea skill in great detail and showed

And for fermentation you don't need any tools.

When it's hot in the apartment, I also ferment in the kitchen in a saucepan right on the table. But there is also such a summer as now)))))
And then you have to use all sorts of different improvised means. In my case, this is a slow cooker.
I do not insist that this is the only sure way to ferment. It's just that it's the most convenient for me personally :)

And St. John's wort also narwhal)

[Natalia Koval]

Natalia Koval, Natasha, thanks for the video, it was interesting to watch. So you make Ivan-tea.

Virgin, refresh my sclerosis.
Someone fermented strawberry tails (sepals). They accumulated them in the freezer.
So I forgot - do you need to dry them before freezing or not?

And St. John's wort also narwhal)

Will St. John's wort go for fermentation or just dry it?
This is not a simple herb, you need to be careful with it.
One year after St. John's wort tea (not fermented) I almost thundered into oncology, barely kicked out

Will St. John's wort go for fermentation or just dry it?

Just dry

[elena kadiewa]

elena kadiewa, then you need to drink it carefully and in moderation. Especially in summer.
St. John's wort gives the skin photosensitivity. Sunburn when taking St. John's wort tea is very persistent and beautiful. But after ... about 2-6 months ... some destructive processes may begin in the deep layers of the skin. The dermatologist explained this to me while she was "dripping" me and building up the sprawling skin on me

[IvaNova]

IvaNova, my skin peeled off (completely) after raspberries. Even from feet and palms, from ears ... Well, everywhere. Moreover, there was no itching, there was no redness. Absolutely painless. But, terribly unpleasant. Like a snake changed its skin. Then ... I thought, counted how many raspberries I ate during the month and was horrified by the amount. Now control and accounting. Daily. Normal flight for two years

[IvaNova]

IvaNova, Ira, Zakhar made strawberry tails. Go to his recipe

Green tea from the leaves of garden and wild plants (Zachary)

He did not ferment, but I think it’s okay if you ferment the tails. True, if there are many of them. And if not, then do like Zakhar.

Will St. John's wort go for fermentation or just dry it?

I did St. John's wort. Fermented. Now I'm just dry. I use it as a medicine. Rarely ... and courses. The link to the post about St. John's wort is in the topic of garden sauces https://Mcooker-enn.tomathouse.com/index.php@option=com_smf&topic=389380.0
But let's wait for Natasha, what will she say?

[lappl1]

lappl1, thanks, Lyudochka! Then I'll freeze them now. And then I'll dry everything together

Hello everyone!

But let's wait for Natasha, what will she say?

I just dry St. John's wort, along with linden blossom, and then add it to tea.

This is not a simple herb, you need to be careful with it.

Well, we won't drink it in bags)
A little tea addition will not hurt.
Moreover, I am like St. John's wort, that I have been drinking oregano all my life and no harm was noticed for my body.
Everything is individual, therefore, tea compositions should be made, focusing on yourself.

And I made black currants on a juicer. I scrolled the cake 3 times. But it's still wet. I played Ivanushka with cake. The beauty. Now fermented. I threw out the cake from red and white currants. The bones are large and completely dry.

I threw out the cake from red and white currants.

And I would put wine on the cake.

[Barquentine]

Barquentine, Nataliya, I'm worried that there are no black currant leaves, and in fact there are black currant berries in the freezer, I did not think to add even a little to the tea. Now I will have the aroma of black currant.
Thank you

And I would put wine on the cake.

With raspberries!

Drunkenness fight. The granules are very wet. They will probably dry for a long time.

With raspberries!

With cherry

[Barquentine]

Barquentine, NataliyaWhat is drunkenness? WE are for the culture of drinking!

Light,

Drunkenness fight.

Dear members of the forum and members of the forum! Greetings to all with respect and admiration! Year as I read and 1 season, as I try to ferment the leaves of garden trees! Ivan tea has been making for 5 years. But the garden didn’t think of it! I admire the creativity of all of you! I try it myself)) And then I decided to write, maybe I could not find an answer to my question - did anyone try the fermentation of dandelion leaves? What happened if yes?

[Innesa]

Innesa, they are bitter!
I would not even experiment

Yes, they are bitter when fresh. But I noticed that when dried, they lose their bitterness. And then fermentation! Very big changes in the leaves! I picked it up and froze it already)) I want to stand it in the freezer for 2 days. In the meantime, maybe someone will respond, who tried it)) They are so useful!

narwhal and frozen already)) I want to stand in the freezer for 2 days. In the meantime, maybe someone will respond, who tried it)) They are so useful!

How did it happen? Did you like the results?
