On counters of shops it is possible to see dozens of names of fried seeds of sunflower. But sunflower seeds in packs often are rancid, nedo- or overroasted or simply tasteless. Over and over again not to feel disappointment, it is possible to buy crude sunflower seeds and to fry their houses.
Instruction
1. Upon purchase choose sunflower seeds of the average size: small it is inconvenient to clean, and from hulling too large (because of a thick peel) fingers hurt or tooth enamel spoils. Crude sunflower seeds can be fried in several ways: in a frying pan, in the microwave oven or in an oven.
2. To fry sunflower seeds on a plate, put a frying pan on a ring. It is desirable to take a frying pan with the large diameter of a bottom and low sides. On a heated frying pan it is possible to pour a little (no more tablespoon) some crude sunflower oil. It will give to sunflower seeds additional aroma. However, it is possible to do also without it. Fill sunflower seeds on a hot frying pan.
3. If you want to receive moderately fried sunflower seeds (with kernels of light-cream color), make small fire and constantly mix frying pan contents. The same who loves slightly overroasted sunflower seeds with ruddy barrels, can try faster way. Put a ring on the maximum power and fry sunflower seeds 1-1.5 minutes, all the time them stirring slowly. Switch off a ring and leave sunflower seeds to cool down in a frying pan. In 10-15 minutes you receive tasty and fragrant seeds of a sunflower.
4. To fry sunflower seeds in the microwave even more simply. Fill a small amount of seeds of sunflower on a plate and distribute them an even layer. Expose the microwave on average power and install the timer for 2 minutes. After this time open a door and mix the got warm sunflower seeds. Let's them cool down directly on a plate. If sunflower seeds weren't roasted to a turn or you love other extent of pro-frying, repeat the procedure once again, having also installed the timer for 2 minutes. Time of frying can be changed: it will depend on quantity of sunflower seeds and power of your Microwave oven.
5. At this way the hashing of sunflower seeds after the expiration of the first period of frying is obligatory. Actually in 2 minutes they manage to be dried only slightly, and "reach" then on the plate heated from microwaves. If not to mix sunflower seeds, the lower part which adjoins to ware will burn, and top will remain crude.
6. If you bought dirty sunflower seeds, fill them in a colander and wash out a baking plate the crane. Pour out sunflower seeds on a paper towel and dry. Include an oven, wait until it heats up. Fill sunflower seeds an even layer on a baking tray and put in an oven. Fire should be made minimum. In 5 minutes mix sunflower seeds and again put in an oven. In a few minutes sunflower seeds will begin to click. It means that they give moisture. Don't miss the moment when sunflower seeds are ready. Each 3-5 minutes get a baking tray and try sunflower seeds. As soon as you are satisfied with taste, get a baking tray and immediately pour fried seeds of sunflower into other ware. Otherwise on a hot baking sheet they will burn down earlier, than will cool down.
