Currant Pastila

Шаг 1

Wash berries, place in a pot, add 1/4 cup water. Boil for 10 minutes.

Шаг 2

Mash the berries and strain through a sieve to remove seeds and skin.

Шаг 3

Beat berry puree with sugar.

Шаг 4

Beat chilled egg white until stiff peaks form and fold into the berry puree.

Шаг 5

Spread the mixture onto a baking sheet (I lined the bottom with parchment paper). The layer was about 1.5 cm thick. Place the tray in the oven and bake at 100°C for 6–8 hours. Every 2 hours, I took the tray out to cool the pastila, then returned it to the oven.

Шаг 6

The finished pastila should be firm and springy to the touch. Cut into pieces and roll in sugar or powdered sugar.
