Sea buckthorn is the last gift of autumn. When the entire harvest has long been harvested and processed, the time comes for this wonderful berry - one of the richest in vitamins and trace elements.From it you can make a lot of healthy drinks and desserts, and it will be helpful for everyone to know how to properly prepare sea buckthorn jelly.

The berry itself is not a universal favorite delicacy, but some like its specific taste. But there is a lot of benefit in it, so sea buckthorn jelly will be very useful for adults, for children, and for those who decide to follow the weight and lose a few extra pounds by the summer.

To make jelly, delicious and rich in vitamins, you need to sort out and rinse well the berry, then grind it with a rolling pin, pass through a sieve or grind in a blender to a pasty state. Next, you need to prepare a syrup: pour water into the pan (about half a liter), add sugar to taste and stir until dissolved. After boiling, add the potato starch and mix everything thoroughly. At the last stage, berry puree is poured into the mixture. Ready kissel can be consumed both hot and chilled.

Any kissel will be unpleasant to drink if it contains lumps. And not all housewives, especially beginners, can avoid this problem. In order to make jelly cooked without lumps, you need to follow simple rules:

• you cannot add dry starch to the syrup: it will not have time to dissolve evenly, and lumps will be obtained necessarily;
• do not pour starch into hot water;
• starch should be poured into a separate dish, pour water and stir until the lumps are completely dissolved manually or with a mixer.

So, the cooking process is the following: a diluted starch in the required amount is poured into the diluted syrup in a diluted syrup, then the berry puree is added. If these conditions are met, it will turn out to make an ideal jelly.

Autumn is a wonderful time when you can eat fresh berries, rich in vitamins. But in winter, vitamins are doubly needed by the body. In this case, you can cook the jelly from frozen sea buckthorn:

• The cake is poured with water and boiled, then filtered;
• in the resulting broth add starch, mix thoroughly;
• pour in the resulting composition of sea buckthorn juice.

• Four tablespoons of corn starch are diluted in ½ cup of cool milk;
• the berry is wiped, as in the previous versions;
• starch with milk is poured into sweet syrup;
• at last add berry puree.

There are two more recipes with added milk and oatmeal, which will be useful to everyone without exception, and can also serve as a good nutritional breakfast and energize those who are on a diet. For this you need:

• boil milk with sugar;
• add pre-diluted starch in a thin stream;
• cook for three or four minutes, stirring slowly;

• in the present oatmeal you need to add the prepared berry puree (for a more ardent taste, you can add fresh orange juice);
• all ingredients are whipped in a blender;
• the resulting composition is filtered through a sieve and brought to a low heat to readiness within five minutes.

Optionally, you can add a teaspoon of honey. The drink turns out bright, beautiful, with a uniform consistency.
