Sweet Pickled Grapes,Wow! What can I say? Some of us love them, and others aren’t so sure! Personally, I love them – in fact, I find them very hard to resist. They make a refreshingly different accompaniment to cheese or cold meat. By the way, I have used fructose in place of the sugar, with no noticeable difference in the end result. And most recently, used a vanilla pod instead of the cinnamon stick, squeezing the seeds into the liquid before adding it to the grapes. The original recipe came from David Scott’s “Middle Eastern Vegetarian Cookery”, but I have doubled the quantity of spices because I like it that way – please half the cinnamon and cloves if you think you would prefer a milder version. Posted in the hope of joining the North African and Middle Eastern Zaar Tag game :-),Nice change of pace. Sweet with a vinegary bite. They made a nice snack, but think they would make an even better garnish. Made as written using Splenda in place of sugar. Think it would be fun to make a mix of red and green grapes. Thanks for the post.
