Depression Era Jewish Salad

[Old Fashioned]

This stuff looks soooooooo good to cool ya down on a hot summer day and a great way to use up a colorful combination of veggies. I'm guessing that to leave it sit for a couple of days it's fermenting???


My oh my...

Sounds good, I’m going to have to try this recipe

I finally got this made today, now to get it packed and into a jar. BTW you DEFINITELY need a large stock pot or water bath canner to mix this stuff in. My large stoneware bowl was no where near large enough.

Oh my, thanks for the warning Patrice. I was hoping it would fit in a half gallon jar...….or would it if packed tight?

[patriceinil]

Not a chance if you use the quantities listed in the recipe.

I am changing the title of this thread. It is a bit unsettling to some folks out here, even though that is what the original recipe is called.

Okay, thanks FF

That's ok, I had kinda wondered about it. I guess you could call it a fermented or pickled or marinated salad instead, just to get away from any & all offensive reference. I still love the salad itself and still eating from it, and it's still good & crunchy. It hasn't lost much other than it doesn't look fresh.

I need to eat the rest of mine, I haven’t eaten any in several days.
