Reviews

  1. I found these extremely salty -- I wonder if they can be made with a little less salt. I drained the brine, added a little sugar, and returned it to the jar I was keeping in the fridge and had not had the water bath.
     
  2. Loved these and they only got better after sitting. I used only 2 lbs of carrots to sample the recipe, but I will be making these again! I cut the carrots into a slim french fry cut and stood them on end in the jars. The jars of carrots looked so pretty with the layers and colors. Made for ZWT4.

  1. To help cut the heavy salt and sharp taste I added a heaping teaspoon of sugar to a 500 ml jar.
