To make an herb vinegar, put rinsed and dried herbs and any spices into a
sterilized 750-ml wine bottle and add about 3 cups vinegar, filling to
within 1/4 inch of the top. Stop with a new cork and set aside for 2 to 3
weeks to steep. The vinegar has a shelf life of at least 1 year.
With red wine vinegar, use:
4 sprigs fresh curly-leaf parsley
2 Tbsp black peppercorns
