Currant

They are not only delicious in pies or sauces, but also the shrubs themselves look beautiful.

In the summer the bushes look great with the clusters of berries on them.

Red and white currant bushes are hardy plants that do well in a sunny clearing, sheltered from strong winds and severe frost. They also fit well in a small garden.

Berry bushes can be planted as a shrub and as a hedge or espalier. A hedge can be trimmed more easily and kept more compact. The berries also ripen faster and are of better quality.

Storage
Currants are best kept in the fridge. Preferably do not place the fruits against each other, but spread them out as much as possible. You can store the berries in the refrigerator for about 3 days.

Cleaning
Wash the berries under the tap and drain in a colander. Remove the stems from the berries. Red currants are quite delicate, so it is advisable to clean the red currants shortly before consumption.

Consumption
Currants can be eaten after cleaning. If the berries are a bit sour in taste, sprinkle them with some white sugar. . This way the sweet tones come out well. You can also make excellent jam, compote and juice from currants. View recipes here .
