  • “These turned out absolutely delicious.Recipe didn’t specify which kind of vinegar to use so I used what was on hand good ol fashioned cider vinegar.Because I wanted to preserve these for later use I used pint jars, and processed in a water bath for 10 minutes.See picture.What didn’t fit into jars was eaten to darned fast to get pic of them.Thank You so much for sharing this recipe.”
