If You Have Chive Blossom Flowers, Make Vinegar!

I filled a quart jar with chive blossoms yesterday and filled it with white wine vinegar.  In two weeks, it should be done.  I really like this vinegar because it imparts an mild onion flavor to salad dressings, sauces, soups and stews.  I really can't have too many raw onions any more, so this vinegar works very well for me.  Hope you had a great day wherever you are.  Talk to you later.

Hi Nancy,
Love the recipe and I am going to try that one. By the way, way back when I won the herbal note pads and you sent them to me I never wrote you back and thanked you. So, thank you. I love them. And I love your blog. Thanks for sharing.

I was hoping you got your note pads. I'm glad you are enjoying them. I need to get around to my fans' blogs more often! Glad you like the recipe. Hopefully, I will be doing a lot more this summer.
