Ceps belong to the first category. They are used with might and main in cooking: boiled, fried, in salted, dried and pickled form. Dishes from them are prepared in different ways - both with preliminary boiling and without it. Our mushroom does not darken during processing, unlike some others, therefore it is often used in different soups, as it turns out a clean, transparent broth. Let's figure out how to cook porcini mushrooms.
Goby meat is a valuable element of nutrition. And the mushroom we are considering now is the best of all. Its proteins are best absorbed by the human body, in addition, they are rich in proteins, fiber and trace elements. Therefore, it is very important to know how much time to cook the porcini mushroom so that dishes from it do not lose their benefits and remain tasty.
The cooking time of goblin meat depends on its type and consistency. One species has a watery structure, the other is more dense. Some mushrooms last even a few minutes of cooking, while others require a much longer processing time. For example, champignons, which are cooked until fully cooked for only five minutes. Our boletus is not so simple. How to cook ceps and how much depends on their size and age. Small and young mushrooms are enough to boil for 20 minutes, but mature ones need to be processed for at least 40 minutes.
When using a slow cooker, boletus mushrooms are cooked for 40 minutes in the baking mode, the same time in a double boiler. In the case when it is planned to fry the mushrooms after boiling, then the time of their cooking in salted boiling water is about 20 minutes.
When considering how to cook porcini mushrooms, one must take into account the fact that in this way they process not only fresh, but also frozen and dried product. In this form, they can be stored for a very long time, without losing their taste and useful qualities. On the contrary, in dried mushrooms the aroma and taste only intensifies. Oddly enough.
Any mushroom in its composition has water, which when dried leaves. For this reason, the dried product must first soften. For this purpose, it is soaked for three to four hours, then it is cooked on low heat, and for a long time - at least two hours.
If the mushroom for storage was frozen, then it did not lose moisture and, in connection with this, is prepared relatively quickly - about 20 minutes. By the way, many are wondering if porcini mushrooms are cooked at all. So, as everyone already understood, the answer is yes. Do not forget to wash them thoroughly beforehand, and you should remove the skin from the hats.
Well, now one of the recipes for how to cook porcini mushrooms is offered.
- We clean and wash our mushrooms well.
- We cut into several parts, depending on size, and pour cold water in a pan.
- We put it on fire, wait for it to boil, and remove the foam with a slotted spoon.
- Salt to taste.
- Cook for 40 minutes or a little longer.
- We boil the boiled mushrooms in a colander and wait until all the water drains.
If, for example, we cook soup from porcini mushrooms, then we do the following. Cook the dried mushrooms until completely soft, then peel a piece of celery and onions, finely chop and cook for about 30 minutes in salted water. Boiled, soft mushrooms, put in the water in which the onions and celery were cooked and cook a little more. We fill the soup with noodles or noodles. Just before serving, add a piece of butter.

Lean charlotte in a slow cooker is a light, fragrant and simple dessert that you can cook from the available ingredients.
Also, without any problems, it is cooked using the oven.
Lean Charlotte with apples. Recipe
Pound a half cup of sugar and a half cup of vegetable oil. Fruits need to be peeled and finely chopped. Lean charlotte with apples will be more tender if you take slightly sour and juicy fruits. Strongly starchy or hard fruits will not work, their pieces will feel like foreign inclusions in the dough. Add a glass of finely crushed walnut kernels with apples to butter and sugar, put a few tablespoons of jam, pour a glass of strong tea leaves, pour a tablespoon of soda, two and a half glasses of flour.
Place the prepared dough in the crock-pot of the multicooker and, having turned on the βBakingβ mode for an hour and a half, leave to bake. Fresh lean charlotte with apples has a rather sticky and unpleasant texture (it does not affect its taste), so it is better to cut and serve it after it has cooled sufficiently.
Charlotte with a fruit layer
The dough for this baking is similar to the one we used in the previous recipe. But this lean charlotte with apples is different in that the fruits are not mixed with other ingredients, but laid out in a separate layer. In order for this layer to keep its shape, the fruits must first be prepared by extinguishing them with the addition of starch.

Slice two apples. Sprinkle with a little sugar and a spoonful of starch. Boil until jammed in a saucepan. At the end, add a spoonful of spice mixture for gingerbread or mulled wine to the filling. Prepare the dough from two ordinary glasses of sifted wheat flour, a package of baking powder, three tablespoons of vegetable oil and a glass of sugar. Pour the resulting mixture with half a glass of strong coffee or tea, add a little jam and chopped nuts to taste. This lean charlotte with apples can also be cooked with butter, in which case it can be eaten on ordinary days when there is no need to fast. Divide the thick dough into two parts, put half in the baking dish in the oven or in the multicooker bowl. Apples must be placed on top. Sprinkle the final layer of dough with sugar (you can also add shtrezel from flour and sugar, if you like its taste). Cook from one hour.
Lean pastries with apples and carrots
A very interesting pie will turn out if you replace the flour with slightly dried rye bread. It will look a bit like an English traditional crumble and have a unique crisp. Take 350 g of carrots and bread, add five small peeled apples, a glass of sugar, a spoonful of cinnamon and five large tablespoons of vegetable oil. Hand-ground bread, mix with grated and butter-stewed carrots, as well as finely chopped fruits. Add cinnamon and sugar, bake for half an hour, sprinkle the finished product with powdered sugar.
