  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   1      tablespoon    minced fresh ginger
   1      cup           white wine vinegar

Mix the ginger and the vinegar together in a sterilized 1/2-pint mason jar.
Place a sterilized seal on top a screw on the ring. Set the jar aside for 1
week to steep, out of direct sunlight and away from heat. Strain the
contents through a fine sieve into a 2-cup glass measuring cup. Clean out
the sieve. Rinse the Mason jar and return the strained vinegar to the jar.
Rinse the measuring cup. Line the sieve with a moist flat-bottom coffee
filter and set it over the cup. Strain the vinegar through again, a bit at a
time, allowing it to drip into the measuring cup. Pour the vinegar into an
8-oz bottle or cruet and seal with a cork. The vinegar should be ready to
use immediately, with a shelf life of at least 1 year.

YIELD: 1 cup
