PAM'S COOKED CELERY-AMISH STYLE



Pam's Cooked Celery-Amish Style image

If I remember correctly, I found this recipe in the book by Beth Wiseman, Plain Perfect (Daughters of the Promise, Book 1). It said that this dish is traditionally served at Amish wedding dinners with roast turkey. I thought it sounded good (I am into anything German sweet and sour) so I made a batch. Surprised the heck out of me...
