I didn't mention this, but the original recipe said you could add the olive oil back into the vegetables after you open the jar and refrigerate it. So that's an option to get some olive oil goodness in there. But I don't think the regular old giardiniera you buy at the grocery store has oil, right?Lisahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01505425216699416546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5214773609385433303.post-88967685566125430842011-12-15T09:30:22.175-05:002011-12-15T09:30:22.175-05:00Maybe this is a totally novice question, but why w...Maybe this is a totally novice question, but why were you trying to avoid olive oil? Does that affect the shelf-stableness, or is it a cost thing? Seems like it's normal for Italian Pickled Veg recipes to include olive oil! Very smart husband. Lucky friends! :-)Margarethttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08872588140938699741noreply@blogger.com
