Once steeped, this vinegar is supposed to "keep for several months.
(Garnishes and other solids left in the jar, however, may discolor or
break down.)"

Sage Caraway Vinegar

1 cup packed fresh sage leaves plus sprigs for garnish, rinsed
and spun dry
1 1/2 teaspoons caraway seeds, bruised with a rolling pin
1 3/4 cups cider vinegar
1/4 cup water
  Put the sage leaves in a very clean 1-qt glass jar and bruise
them with a wooden spoon.  Add the caraway seeds, the vinegar,
and the water and let the mixture steep, covered with the lid, in
a cool dark place for 4 days to 2 weeks.  Strain the vinegar
through a fine sieve into a glass pitcher, discarding the solids,
and pour it into 2 very clean 1/2-pint glass jars.  Add the sage
sprigs and seal the jars with the lids.
