- Comments
- I've not prepared this recipe, so cannot comment on its results. Would like to comment about using olive oil, however. It seems to me that olive oil would not be a good choice if the giardiniera is to be kept refrigerated, as the oo would congeal and might affect the texture of the vegetables. This recipe uses no oil.
