Pastilla, prepared with your own hands from fruits that you can find in your own garden, is a great alternative to desserts from the store.
Making pastille from apples is a simple matter. You can use any type of fruit for this.
For a brighter taste or aroma, some add ginger or cinnamon, but this is at will and taste.
How to prepare a pastille?
Everything is very simple. To begin with, you need to wash the apples, peel them, remove all damage and cut out the core. Then the fruits should be cut into pieces and immersed in water with lemon or citric acid so that they do not darken.
The next step is to put the apples in a wide pan or bowl and add a few spoonfuls of water to them, and then boil them on fire until they become soft.
Next, use a blender to puree the apples and spread the resulting puree evenly on parchment paper and place in an oven heated to 50 degrees.
It is necessary to dry the future pastille for several hours.
It should be periodically checked for readiness. On average, the procedure takes about 3-5 hours. The finished paste should stick to the hands when touched. Then the product can be cut into pieces.
It is better to store treats in a glass container in a dry place.
