Ingredients

  • spices
  • herbs
  • vinegar

Instructions

  • Start with a clean bottle or jar.
  • Add any spices first.If using garlic, ginger or garlic ~ drop in next.
  • Add the fresh herbs.
  • I use a chopstick or a bamboo/wooden skewer to poke at the herbs to settle down into the jar.
  • Add the vinegar to ½ inch below the top of the container.Use the chopstick or skewer to poke at the herbs to ensure that they are completely submerged.
  • If using nettles, dill or other leafy herb; add last so that the spices will stay submerged in the vinegar.
  • It is actually ready at this point but the infusion will be more flavourful if allowed to sit for 4-6 weeks.

Notes

NOTE: if the vinegar is topped up after each use, to ensure that the botanicals are not exposed to air, the vinegar will keep for up to 6 months.
(Confession: I have vinegars that are 2-3 years old, that are just fine)
