How to make kvass from dry kvass? This issue is of particular relevance only in the hot summer season. After all, it is at this time of the year that you want to quench your thirst and replenish the water balance with something sour and sweet at the same time. It is worth noting that a home-made kvass drink is much tastier and he althier than a similar product sold in yellow barrels on the street.

How to make kvass from dry kvass at home

Required ingredients:

• granulated sugar - 8-9 large spoons;
• purified drinking water - 3 l;
• dry active yeast (granulated) - 5-7 peas;
• dry bought kvass - 3 full big spoons.

Cooking process

Before you put kvass from dry kvass, you should definitely purchase the main ingredient in the form of crackers, ground to crumbs. As a rule, suchthe product is sold in bread shops (in packs or by weight). It should be especially noted that dry kvass from different manufacturers can vary significantly in color (from light to dark). This fact does not play a special role in the final product, however, in some cases, a mixture that is too dark can produce a stronger drink.

In order to understand how to properly put kvass at home, you should remember that such a product turns out to be much tastier if it is made with a sufficient amount of granulated sugar. Thus, a sweet bulk product in the amount of 8-9 large spoons should be placed in a three-liter glass jar, and then 3 full tablespoons of dry kvass and 5-7 peas of active granular yeast should be added to it. After that, it is necessary to pour purified drinking water into the main ingredients (up to the shoulders of the jar) and stir it together with the rest of the products using a large kitchen appliance (spoon or fork).

Before you put dry kvass with water in a warm place, you should make sure that the granulated sugar is completely melted. Only then can the drink be covered (loosely) with a glass lid and left aside for 24-48 hours. An ideal option for such kvass is a window sill, where the hot sun shines throughout the day. In such a place, the sour drink is made very quickly (within 1 day) and it turns out delicious.

In the process of making kvass, you can see with your own eyes howa three-liter jar is an active reaction. And the stronger it is, the more sour and vigorous the drinking product will turn out.

After 24 hours of exposure to the sun, the drink will be completely ready. But it is still recommended to try it. If the taste of kvass suits you, then it should immediately be poured into plastic bottles and placed in a refrigerator.

Now you know how to make kvass from dry kvass at home. At the same time, it should be remembered that the same drink can be made from the leaven remaining at the bottom, but only without the addition of dry granulated yeast to it. As the sediment at the bottom increases, it should be partially drained, leaving only 5-6 large spoons.
