Herbed Vinegars

Once you've assembled your vinegar making equipment and picked out your fruit, it's time to make fruit vinegar!

Recipe Summary Herbed Vinegars

This is a simple way to make herbed vinegars. Herbed vinegars make great gifts and will last for over 6 months. (Use approximately 3 sprigs of herbs for each 16 ounce bottle.) Try using thyme, oregano, rosemary, chives, tarragon or fennel with different vinegars to make all kinds of variations. Hint: If you use purple basil, the vinegar will taste great, and be a lovely shade of purple!

Ingredients | Pear Vinegar

2 cups distilled white vinegar

3 sprigs fresh rosemary

Directions

Choose a 16-ounce bottle with a well-fitting lid or cork. Boil it to sterilize, then remove from 'water bath', empty of any water inside, and allow to cool to room temperature.

In a small saucepan, combine the vinegar with 1/3 cup of water and heat until the mixture begins to boil. Remove from heat.

Slip about 3 sprigs of fresh rosemary into the cooled bottle.

Using a funnel and care (!), pour the hot (NOT boiling) vinegar into the bottle over the rosemary. Cover tightly with lid and store at room temperature.
