Onion Wine

[SIRUSKEY]

I have got my hands on a Wine Recipe book from1974 which was in with some bits and bobs.

Get this one

1/2 lbs Onions
1/2 lbs Potatoes
1 lbs Chopped Raisins
3 lbs Sugar
2 Lemons or Citric Acid
Yeast Nutrient
Yeast
1 Gallon Water

Method

Slice and dice the onions and potatoes and plae these together with the chopped rasins in warm (not hot) water in which the sugar has been dissolved. Add lemon juice (no pith) or citric acid and yeast nutrient, then introduce activated yeast. Ferment for 10 days, then strain and complete fermentation in glass jars under fermentation lock.

You miserable sod, I was given a reputation as a freaky vinter after the Tomato Challenge (and maybe some other things I have fermented) so I suppose that means me.


There's a point, the tomato has had a good few months down the cellar, I wonder if it has miraculously transformed into a prize winner. Time to test, I hope I may be back.
