Easy Herbal Vinegar

Making your own home-made herbal vinegars is a creative way to add your favorite herbs (and their medicinal qualities) to your dishes.

Herbal vinegars make lovely gifts when displayed in decorative glass jars.

Simple Herbal Vinegar Recipe

Purchase a bottle of your favorite vinegar.

Choose the herbs you want to add to the vinegar.

Bruise the herbs in a large bowl, and then add them to the vinegar bottle.

Recap or cork the bottle and leave at room temperature. Herbal vinegars have the best flavor after one or two weeks.

There's only one precaution: If you use garlic cloves, make sure you store the vinegar in your refrigerator to guard against botulism.
