Raspberries with sugar for the winter - the basic principles of cooking

Therefore, it would be better if you drop the berries for 20 minutes in lightly salted water, and then rinse under running water.
Raspberries spoil quickly enough, so try to make blanks, only from fresh berries.
Next, prepare the raspberries with sugar according to the recipe you chose. Berries can be left whole, and you can grind with sugar.
