Thanks for this I made mine with carrots and garlic only and sub'd the sugar with honey. Added mustard seed and nigella seeds and it turned out delicious.

Well done !!!!! Thank you so much 😊😊😊😊

Thanks so much. I'm making it today

[@litahsr.8226]

u forget to remove the bubbles and clean the top of the jars before putting the lids on 😊

[@davidcarroll2543]

I made exactly as shown but it tasted too sweet. If I cut out the sugar would it give it a salty or pickled dill taste?

[@ChefNicosKitchen]

Hello David Thank you for your great question. The sugar in your Giardiniera balances out the acid from the vinegar. It neutralizes the flavor of vinegar and salt in the Vegetables and gives it a milder flavor. Without sugar, the taste of vinegar and salt would make the Giardiniera vegetables way too tart and sour. Honey can be substitutedfor sugar. The flavor ofhoney is sweeter than that of granulated sugar, so it is advisable to use less honey than the amount of sugar specified in the recipe. For example, if you use 1 cup of sugar, use 1/4 c of honey.

[@FuckNewWorldOrder]

​@@ChefNicosKitchenhe might have read the printed quantities as he saw them... Which are fuzzy and not readily legible. Ex: putting in 8 tbs instead of 3. Can you recite here in the comments exactly what quantities you used? The font onscreen is fuzzy. Thanks.

[@vlastafe]

I would not use honey, toxic after heating it up

[@rinacraig7307]

Aish.....looks devine 😊, sadly l have to forgo it though as l cannot read that small print recipe. Blessings from S.A. none the less though.

Out of curiosity. Would lactofermented version be healthier? Would it taste the same?

[@ChefNicosKitchen]

Hello I have no experience in lacto-fermented foods, I researched and this is what I find. www.healthline.com/nutrition/lacto-fermentation

[@anam9621]

Can you substitute for apple cider vinager?

[@ChefNicosKitchen]

Sure, that would work fine. I haven't tried it, but it would certainly produce a unique flavor. Please report back with your results!

[@SherryPhillips-h9c]

Can you use pickling spice on these veggies?

[@LaCocinadeChefNico]

Hello Sherry Phillips. Yes of course you can. Add your pickling spices and follow the recipe as described

[@SherryPhillips-h9c]

@@LaCocinadeChefNico Thank you for letting me know,keep up the great work.👍😁

shouldn't the short-term use be good for even a couple of months?

[@scottmayhew2227]

Is the sugar necessary? Do we have to use sugar?

[@ChefNicosKitchen]

Hello Scott Thank you for your great question. The sugar in your Giardiniera balances out the acid from the vinegar. It neutralizes the flavor of vinegar and salt in the Vegetables and gives it a milder flavor. Without sugar, the taste of vinegar and salt would make the Giardiniera vegetables way too tart and sour.

[@squange20]

Of course you need to add sugar. The sugar, salt and vinegar preserves the vegetables. If you lessen the sugar, the mixture will taste too sour. The chef has done a great job.

[@scottmayhew2227]

@@ChefNicosKitchen Thank you for your advise. I try not to use sugar. If it is the best way, I will though.

[@Nelli77210]

@@scottmayhew2227 How does it taste without the sugar?

[@scottmayhew2227]

Fermentation is different than pickling. The taste is different. Not everyone likes it. The reason that I do it is for health reasons. Fermentation assists in gut health. Pickling involves sugar, which over the long term creates inflammation and poor health.@@Nelli77210

The giardiniera I buyin the stores does not have sugar and I prefer that…

You can't really even see what the ingredients are so it's rather a waste of time.

Thanks for the recipe, I would've preferred if you actually spoke and described in English what you were doing.

Video kind of walks you through it unless you're blind you don't need to hear anything.

[@FuckNewWorldOrder]

​@@shermdog6969Actually the script onscreen is fuzzy ~ I can't see diffs between '3' '5' '6' '8' '9'. It's a valid question that needs no snide response. Can U decipher quantities of ingredients here? That would be helpful.
