Water begins to boil and heat the liquid in a small container.
Be sure to cover the pan with the broth lid, leaving a small gap for steam to escape. After about an hour, the product will be ready. It is filtered and stored in the refrigerator. Instead of a small pan, you can use a liter or half-liter jar. It can withstand heat well when heated slowly.
They use the resulting product for three dessert spoons no more than three times a day. Reception should be between breakfast, lunch and dinner.
