MacKenzie Posted March 29, 2015 Report Share Posted March 29, 2015 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. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When adding this to a cook will you still need to add salt? How long will this keep? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacKenzie Posted March 29, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2015 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
