JOAN SCOBEY'S CARNATION VINEGAR
- 6 cloves
- 1 cup carnation petals
- 4 cups white wine vinegar
"Carnations petals are edible and add a clover like flavor
to foods but be careful not to eat the greenery,
some carnation leaves are poisonous."
- "Pull petals off the flower stems; snip off white heels and add them to your compost. Wash and dry well.
- Heat vinegar until it is lukewarm.
- Crush flower petals and cloves in a jar with a wooden spoon.
- Cover mixture with the warm vinegar and let it steep about 3 weeks. (preferably in a sunny windowsill)
- Strain the vinegar into decorative bottles and cap or cork tightly. I use it on fruit salad."- Joan
