Sorrel for winter
Description
A simple way to prepare ahead for storage. Preparing sorrel for winter at home is very easy. Sort through and wash the sorrel thoroughly. Coarsely chop the sorrel leaves and drop them into boiling water; as soon as it changes color, reduce the heat and skim off the foam that forms. Immediately pack the sorrel into sterilized jars. Store the product in the refrigerator or a cool pantry. Good luck. Store in a cool, dark place.
