Pickled Garlic
Peel garlic cloves. Pack into 1/2 pint jars. To each jar of garlic cloves add:
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 Tbsl sugar
- 1/3 tsp basil
- 1/3 tsp oregano
Fill each jar with white vinegar. Now empty jars into a saucepan and add another 1/3 cup of vinegar and bring all to a full boil for 5-8 minutes,remove from heat. Pour back into the 1/2 pint jars
and either can it or refrigerate it.
OPTIONAL: you can add a pinch of
crushed red pepper to each jar just before you can it for a nice spicy touch. This garlic is great for cooking, or anything you would use garlic in
but it is especially good just out of the jar like you would eat pickles.
Note, you can also use Red Vinegar.
