Homemade meat sauce in a jar for winter: Currant sauce sweeps away the competition

White currant is a lesser-known cousin of the red currant. Its fruits look like small pearls. They may seem unimpressive, but they can support proper heart function. Eating white currants can help prevent heart attack, atherosclerosis, or stroke. Therefore, it's worth reaching for these fruits. And if you don’t know what to do with white currants, prepare a savory sauce based on them for jars for winter. It will be perfect for meats.

In winter, when you decide to use white currant sauce, you can season it with rosemary, thyme, juniper, etc. However, it is not advisable to add these spices to the sauce when it is being made for jars. Over time, dried spices may cause the sauce to acquire a bitter taste. It is best to use such spices fresh before serving.
