New method for pickling chive flowers

Overview

Growing up, in my hometown, we only ate the young stems of chive flowers, and no one ate the flowers. It wasn’t until I played in the food group that I realized that my friends from the north love to eat chive flowers. I looked up Meitian’s recipes and found that they were all pure flowers with minced apples and pears marinated in sauce. After that, Sister Xin kept thinking about how to combine the eating styles of the north and the south. , made a delicious pickled vegetable, and finally couldn't help but try it out and made a pound last night. At 3 o'clock this afternoon, Sister Xin opened the bottle cap out of curiosity, and a strong aroma of leeks mixed with the aroma of kimchi rushed over. The pickled leeks flowers are fresh in the mouth, and also have the unique sour aroma of kimchi. For those who love kimchi, it is worth a try.
