During this time, you need to change the water several times, the last time you can add salt to the water so that the bitterness disappears, and the waves after salting become crispy and firm.

    You also need to prepare jars in advance for storing salted waves. Banks are better to take a small volume. in order not to store mushrooms for a long time after opening the jar. I wash the cans with soda, sterilize them in a water bath. Pour water into a coffee pot or kettle, bring it to a boil, put the washed jar upside down on the neck and keep a 0.5 l jar for about 15 minutes. Then remove the jar and let it dry, wash the lids and boil.

    You need to put a plate upside down on top so that it covers the contents completely, but the diameter is smaller than the container in which we will salt the volnushki. We put a load on the plate that is heavy enough in weight, for example, a pot of water. We leave the waves to salt in this container for three days in a cool place. After the specified time, we lay out the shells in sterile jars, pouring the mushrooms with brine, roll up the lids and put them away for storage in a cool place.
