Spicy Citrus Blend

Spicy Citrus Blend

Ingredients

oranges 6 pcs
lemons 2 pcs
fresh ginger 200g
sugar 1.5KG

Cooking method

  • Grind citrus fruits with ginger (meat grinder, food processor, Berner grater - as you like), add sugar to the resulting mass, mix and pour into jars. Store in the refrigerator.
  • To increase the benefits in the original recipe, I adjusted the sugar - added only 500g - but this is for quick eating! Practice shows that this thing does not stand for a long time, with tea it leaves with a bang! Once I added honey - I think the medicine worked!
  • In winter, it even invigorates and warms. I will insert a photo in the evening when I put the kids to bed

The dish is designed for

2.5 l

200 g of ginger is no joke! Little?

Irisha, can you IMHO about the amount of ginger?

I make the following mixture: two lemons (350 - 400 gr.), Sugar (amount of sugar = the weight of lemon), 100 gr. fresh ginger, cinnamon, dried mint.

As for me, ginger is just right !!!

I tried to reduce the ginger to 50 grams. - I didn't like it, something was not right already ...

Taste in one word ...

In the author's recipe, 200 gr. ginger goes to 8 representatives of the citrus family, as for me, an absolutely sane amount ...

Melrose, Helen, thank you for the recipe, I will definitely try !!!

Check mark, can I add?

I prepare this mixture very often, and by trial, I realized for myself that cinnamon powder and freshly ground cinnamon give different flavors.

After I tried it with freshly ground (I grind the stick in an old coffee grinder), now I only do it with it.

Yeah thanks, Innochka, I'll take that into account.
Merri
Inna, thanks for the details! Where do you use this mixture in large quantities?
Melrose
Girls, 200g of fresh ginger root for this mass is just right! I even deliberately then catch its pieces from this syrup - do not come off! but I generally like ginger

Melrose, made a sample in terms of 1 orange and already regretted that it was so little! Thanks again for the recipe!
Melrose
Thank you all for the flattering reviews! I want to add that I soldered the babies out of this mixture with a drink and drank it myself when I caught the virus, my throat hurt. All recovered in a couple of days - the main symptoms disappeared. now we just drink instead of tea, I'm a hot drink, kids - cool

I couldn't turn the photo
Natalyushka
I suggest adding a little cinnamon and 1-2 pieces of ground cloves, and for medicinal purposes immediately add a little red pepper to the glass, pour boiling water, honey in the bite - teraflu heals better.

Thanks for the delicious recipe

Melrose, and what did you grind? I got a completely homogeneous mass, and you, judging by the photo - there are pieces. What is the right way then?

Irisha, I make my own hot drink (for a cup of boiling water 4-6 tsp. mixture) !!!

I myself just eat this mixture with a bit of tea.

Melrose, what did you grind?

By the way, yes, I'm also interested ...

It's certainly easier with a blender, but I would like pieces)) ...

Judging by the photo, it looks like citrus fruits were rubbed on Bernere)), although I could be wrong ...

And I also have a question for those who like to use citrus fruits without heat treatment ...

GirlsHow do you process citrus fruits before further use?

Wash with baking soda?

Do you pour boiling water over?

This mixture of lemon + ginger + honey is constantly prepared by my friend. And she eats it along with a sandwich with cheese or lightly salted feta cheese with tea! Directly spreads on top of the cheese. She really likes this flavor combination.
Melrose
Finally escaped to you!
I answer in order - this time I grinded Berner on a grater (I could not assemble_ disassemble-wash the meat grinder, the children were eager to help a lot with the device!), so the pieces turned out. I did it before in a meat grinder - the mass is more homogeneous and it turns out thinner. How to grind is a matter of individual taste, there are no hard and fast rules.
And I pour boiling water over citrus fruits, it's more fragrant for me

Lenochka! Thanks for the recipe! I have separate sliced ​​lemon and grated ginger with sugar in my refrigerator. There was not enough imagination for an orange! Already fixed everything! It's really delicious! I sit drinking tea
Girls! And this is a ready-made mulled wine additive!
The mixture is really very healthy! With a cold And also, maybe someone does not know, residents of Asian countries, such as India, China, Korea, very rarely have joint diseases such as arthritis, gout, osteoarthritis, etc., because they eat a lot of ginger. My husband has gout. We drink tea with ginger every day!
Melrose
Svetochka! Thanks for the praise!
I didn't know about these healing properties of ginger, I treated all colds and sore throats. And now I will love him even more because all my grandparents suffered from joint diseases. Everything, this number will not work with me

I bought citrus fruits and ginger, and something thoughtful - peel citrus fruits before chopping, or grind them together with the zest?

Together.
Lud-Mil @
Crochetthanks for the hint!
I ground everything in a food processor, did it at half the rate, 3 oranges + 1 lemon, replaced sugar with honey, then divided the whole mixture into two jars, added ground cinnamon to one more. I liked it, I even ate a couple of spoons just like that, delicious! And I also made a drink to test it: I spread a little mixture with hot water, I sit and drink, good!
Tashenka
Elena, thanks for the recipe! Finally I did, although I licked my lips for a long time. Very tasty, even with spoons, even diluted in boiling water. And how great it will be with ice cream.
Lerele
Thank you, it turned out very tasty. Did half a serving. I took bio oranges and biolimon.
We categorically do not recommend ordinary products with skins, chemical impregnation is absorbed into the crust, they write that you cannot wash it ..

Yeah this Little baby so unobtrusively hooked on the recipe, for which she is very grateful. It is simply impossible to see and taste everything at once. And just in time we switched to vitamins. I really liked it with the orange.

Lily, but I can't force mine. Already trying to do everything, even talking about the fact that you can lose weight. Stubborn ... It seems that it is not small anymore, but I can’t keep quiet, which is tasty and healthy.
Senpolia
Girls, can you have tangerines instead of oranges?
Crochet
Senpolia, easily ...

Oh, I remembered another tasty usefulness with tangerines ...

It seems that somewhere I have already shared the recipe ...

I repeat, suddenly, who needs it, I found the recipe many years ago, from Yulia-La perla, here: 🔗

1 orange
1 mandarin
1 lemon
6 tbsp. l. flower honey

Wash citrus fruits thoroughly with a brush. Pour boiling water over and leave for 10-15 minutes.
Chop, pitted and chop in a blender.
Add liquid honey, stir - done) Store in the refrigerator.
It is better to add the amount of honey to taste and, depending on the citrus variety, the bitterness can be more or less pronounced.

From this amount of ingredients, I got 700 ml of the finished product, which
on TV it was recommended to take it as an additional remedy in the treatment of colds or for the prevention thereof.

Senpolia
Thanks for the quick reply. So ... No oranges ... I will create with tangerines as I buy oranges, try the recipe.
Ipatiya
Melrose, thanks for the recipe! The mixture is simply magical! Changed the proportions a bit, but still the effect is amazing! Replaces and outperforms coffee. I hate honey, but in this mixture I can easily eat it. The metabolism is accelerated. It is known that in Southeast Asia, people are especially active and efficient. It seems to me that a lot of credit for this belongs to nutrition.
Melrose
To your health !!!

I made this mixture yesterday. There was only one naked lemon (without zest), I bought ginger, but forgot about the orange. In general, I twisted it in a meat grinder, added honey. I got a lot of ginger, but that's okay for me. The mixture is bitter-spicy. It goes well with tea, and if you just eat it, it turns out tart. But delicious! Right now, I drank tea at work, it still feels warm in my throat. Who has not tried yet be sure to do it.
lyudmia
iris. ka, and I have a lemon, and I have no vitamin mixture. We urgently need to correct the situation. Thanks for reminding

lyudmia, Lud, cesanafig? Run to the store for ginger and orange. It's still a bit bitter without it.

Please tell me: do you need to peel the ginger before chopping? I never cooked it myself ...
Admin

I would peel ginger into such a blank. This is done easily, scrape off the skin with a knife or spoon.

Thank you!
