How to salt dill for the winter at home

Dill occupies an honorable place in cooking as a fragrant seasoning. This surprisingly useful and fragrant plant is also called the “grass of youth”, because dill prolongs the youth of the body, has a great effect on the digestive system, provides us with a blooming and fresh look.

Even very heavy foods (meat, mushrooms, eggs), thanks to dill, break down much faster. Dill cleanses the stomach of the remnants of fat. Dill increases appetite and helps to normalize metabolism. Dill saves from insomnia, promotes skin healing, and calms the nervous system.

Summer is exactly the time when you can prepare dill: dry, freeze or pickle. This should be done if you have the opportunity, as summer dill from the garden is much healthier than the dill that you will buy in supermarkets in the winter.

Salting dill is very simple: it is enough to have fresh dill, salt and small jars with lids. Store pickled dill in the refrigerator and use as needed. Remember that when adding salted dill to a dish, you automatically add salt with dill. Therefore, properly regulate the amount of salt that you add to the dish, taking into account the salt in the dill.

For salting, we need fresh dill (3 bunches), a knife, a kitchen board, salt (100 grams), a jar with a lid, a pusher.
