CHIVE BLOSSOM VINEGAR


If you have any chive blossoms left in your garden, you may be interested in making Chive Blossom Vinegar. You can find the detailed instructions on Savoring Time in the Kitchen and here. 







Close your jar, and allow to steep in a cool, dark place. After the blossoms steep in the vinegar for one to two weeks, strain and refrigerate. I didn't use a jar with a metal lid, but if you do, place some plastic wrap in between the lid and jar as the acidity of the vinegar may corrode the lid.

               
This is the pretty color after one week. 


Here is the gorgeous pink color after two weeks, strained and ready for gift giving. I also kept a jar for myself, and bought some beautiful lettuce at the farmers market today so we had it for dinner tonight. It is wonderful!



While you are in your garden picking chive blossoms, enjoy the scenery!





I'm joining the Cozy Home Party and Seasonal Sundays.
Thank you for stopping by!
