I loved the idea of "not hot canning"! I did find that mine turned out a little "bland" for our taste. I didn't have tarragon vinegar and used cider with fresh tarragon instead so maybe that could be why. I re-worked them a bit, added wine vinegar,some sea salt, sugar and a few more spices; then heated the vinegar mixture just until things disolved nicely. I increased the ratio of vinegar to water. For our taste, that was better. It's such an easy recipe that you can quickly make changes to suit your own taste!

This is a great basic recipe as is! I used fresh garden spices, because I had them, and garlic because I love it! I also used olive oil for part of the butter and added some mushrooms. But if you fixed this without changing anything..it would still be great! And the leftovers are yummy for breakfast!
