I’m so glad you enjoyed this article, it’s a fun recipe to make. Thank you for your support and your fantastic rating! I hope you enjoy, let me know how it goes! This is so delicious!

Great recipe! I've made it several times now and every time someone asks for the recipe and/or asks me to make to again. It's one of those things that is incredibly difficult to stop eating once you start.

I used granulated sugar, but you could also use honey. You could experiment with other sweeteners as well but I can’t guarantee how they will turn out. Heat up the water, vinegar, salt, sugar, pepper, mustard seeds, and dill in a saucepan over high heat until the mixture is simmering. Cook for a few minutes until the salt dissolves. This recipe takes about an hour to make, assuming 45 minutes of chill time, and will last in your fridge for 2-3 weeks. Note that this has to be stored in an airtight jar or container in the fridge, and the recipe as written, is not meant for canning. Thank you so much for your kind words! I add the parsley at the same time as the other spices, you were absolutely correct. You’ll have to tell me what you think once you try them, and if you have any questions feel free to reach out! Thanks so much for your support!
