Neapolitan medlar (crataegus azaroles), jujube, almond and black grapes for wine are the harvested fruits of these days.
These foods, each of which are so valuable and delicious, will be eaten fresh and also will be the foods we will eat throughout the winter.
We try not to process with fire the foods that we will eat in winter or the foods we want to store for a long time, while possible. For example, fruits that are cooked for hours to make jam or grape cooked for hours to make molasses do not contain any nutriment anymore. These foods, which satisfy the palate of people with sugar, are very low in nutrients.
We choose alternative methods such as drying, fermenting, bottling without air, storing in olive oil whenever possible. Of course, people who buy these foods also see the difference, if not immediately.
Storing food for the winter during the season is one of the serious works on the farm. Especially in the autumn.
How do you store the food you produce?
