Equipment

  • 1 lidded jar (sterilised)
  • 1 empty lidded bottle (sterilised)
  • 1 sieve

Ingredients

  • 1 large cup chive flowers - freshly picked
  • 1 bottle white wine vinegar

Instructions

  • Wash freshly cut chive flowers in cold water and dry them thoroughly.
  • Fill a clean and dry sterilised jar with the chive flowers, until it's around two-thirds full.
  • Next, fill the jar with white wine vinegar.
  • Seal the jar, and store it in a cool, dark place for around two weeks.
  • After two weeks or so, using a sieve, strain the liquid into a sterilised bottle. Pop the lid on and this will store in a cool dark cupboard for around a year. The pickled flowers can be composted.
