Someone did this before so I am going to try it. I used a hibiscus ๐ŸŒบ tea and left it unattended for most of the year. So I wonder if it will taste any good.

Well. I had one of the two pieces. I over salted it and the thing was in really strong vinegar for a while so I hope I am alive tomorrow.

It's a texture to get used to. It's like what I imagined snails and clams would taste like. Like really thick egg. It's got a sweet but vinegary taste. I think next time I'm going to wash the vinegar out first. My brain wasn't thinking. But probably just a light wash. The vinegary taste is not that bad.
