How to Make Quick Pickled Garlic With Mediterranean Flavors
- In a small, nonreactive saucepan, combine the white wine vinegar, dry sherry, sea salt, black peppercorns, bay leaf, and sliced chili pepper (if using). Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally to dissolve the salt.
- Reduce heat to medium-low. Add the peeled garlic cloves and simmer gently for 30 seconds.
- Remove from heat and stir in the fresh thyme or rosemary sprigs.
- Let the mixture cool completely to room temperature, uncovered.
- Pour the garlic and pickling liquid into a clean, nonreactive jar with a tight-fitting lid.
- Cover tightly and let stand at room temperature for at least 24 hours before tasting. The flavor will deepen over the next few days.
- Refrigerate after 24 hours. Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 months.
