Salted Chives Perserve

[MacKenzie]

Pick fresh chives and pass them through the fine die of meat/food grinder.

Mix with food preserving salt in the ratio of 2:1 by weight; chives:salt

Store in jars in a dark cool place.

Use in soups, stews, etc.

 

*** Can use kosher salt if processing salt is not available.

When adding this to a cook will you still need to add salt?

How long will this keep?

[MacKenzie]

No, you would want to watch how much salt you add as this is quite salty. I think it will keep for at least a year, I've had mine since last summer and it looks as fresh now as it did in the beginging
