Instructions

Choose good fresh porcini mushrooms.
Rinse.
Fill it with water and put it on the stove.
Cover and cook for 3-5 minutes on low heat. Mushrooms should not be too boiled. Boil it just a little.
Drain the water in which they were cooked. Pour cold water so that it covers the top of your finger. Add salt, garlic cloves cut in half and dill greens.
Cover with a plate and lay out the cargo. Leave to infuse for a day or two at room temperature. A characteristic sour smell should appear – this means that lactic acid has appeared in the dish – a sure sign of properly cooked pickles. Remove the container with mushrooms, without removing the load, in the cold, but not in the cold (balcony, refrigerator).
After 7 days, the mushrooms will be ready. It can be stored on the balcony or in the refrigerator in this form for much longer – salt and lactic acid will not let the mushrooms spoil. The brine will darken a little – this is normal.
Remove the plate.
Transfer the mushrooms to a container or jar, removing unnecessary dill. Try the mushrooms. If they are too salty for your taste, fill them with plain water with a teaspoon of sugar – this will help reduce their salinity. If everything is fine with salt, you can pour the same brine in which the mushrooms were sealed.
Store mushrooms without brine for no more than 2-3 days. Potatoes, fried to a crisp, are good to serve with salted mushrooms.
