2 teaspoons rice vinegar |
2 quarter-sized slices fresh ginger, bruised |
1 garlic clove, peeled and cut into thin strips (or you can leave it whole) |
1 teaspoon salt |
2 cups hot water (not boiling) |
Directions:
1. Combine the ingredients in a clean and sterilized pint (500 mL) bottle or jar. Pour in about 2 cups of hot water and let the mixture steep at room temperature overnight.
2. Refrigerate in the morning.
