this was excellent and very easy to prepare. i used cider vinegar, about half a cup and only a few tbsp of sugar. this is a great side dish

This is an easy side dish. The vinegary taste may not appeal to everyone, but we found it tasty. I used only half a cup of cider vinegar, more would have made it too vinegary for us. Thank you.

Oh this brought back some good memories from my grandmother too. Thanks. I also used part of the vinegar only because of my sweet tooth. But this is an easy, yet wonderful recipe.
