Ingredients

>> 4 cups daylily flower buds
>> 1 cup daisy flowers
>> 3 cups white vinegar
>> 1 cup water
>> 3⁄4 cup packed brown sugar
>> 1⁄2 teaspoon sea salt
>> 8 cinnamon sticks (1/2” each)
>> 8 whole cloves

Instructions

Place daylily buds and daisies in a pan; add water just to cover. Bring to a rapid boil, cover, and simmer 15 minutes; then drain. Place hot flower buds and daisies into 8 sterilized 500ml (1 cup) canning jars.

Combine vinegar, brown sugar, sea salt, cinnamon sticks and cloves in a pan and bring to a boil; boil 1 minute. Simmer 5 minutes. Pour this solution over the buds and flowers, distributing the cloves and cinnamon equally. Seal immediately.

Let these stand minimum one month before using to properly infuse the spicy flavour.
