I am so pleased that they turned out so well for you Elizabeth! I’ve never made them with pecans but that sounds really fantastic- I might have to make a pecan batch too!

We made these with pecans to tuck in the basket of homemade treats we give to my father-in-law every year. Everyone liked them so much we alsmost didn’t have enough! Thanks for sharing!

How many pints does one batch make?

Comment on Potato Celery Root Soup by stitchy1

I’ve never tried growing celery root but I failed miserably at growing celery and I am imagining that they require a lot of the same things. A lot of steady watering is probably one of them. Yeah, the root is really expensive- this is why I feel very fortunate in my organic winter CSA share because we get one of those babies almost every week during parts of winter and I think it ends up being a lot less expensive from them. why not experiment this winter in doing celery root starts? You could start them early in a bright window sill with a heat mat, or you could devise a cloche for them out in the actual garden.

I love celery root! Sure wish it wasn’t so costly…$2.99lb and those babies are heavy. I tried to grow it last year with complete failure. Then I read El at fastgrowtheweeds had started hers inside her greenhouse and well, I do not have a greenhouse but there must be a way that I can grow them. I would feel so good being able to grow my own.

I’m so happy you liked it! What a kind thing to do for your friend. I know from personal experience that when you break bones you are in a lot of pain and depending on your break, often can’t do simple things like cook.

Thanks so much for the recipe. I made it for a friend that is not able to cook due to a slide down the stairs and a few broken bones.

It was very easy to make and smells wonderful.

Yes, it does. I’m not at all sure it has enough vinegar to allow you to simply seal it while hot. I wouldn’t risk it.
