• Olive Oil:  1/2 cup
• Vinegar:  1/4 cup

Note: If you have washed the garlic cloves make sure water is dried completely.          

Method:

• Before grinding put the vinegar in the blender & shake well to remove any water & contaminant, drain the vinegar.
• Add garlic cloves & olive oil grind it to a fine paste.
• If required add additional oil to make smooth paste.

Note: Don’t forget to drain the vinegar or else the paste differs in taste & colour might turn to blue. Olive oil is used as it is good for health & cholesterol free.

Storing procedure:

• Pour it in a dry airtight bottle.
• Put half inch olive oil on top so it floats above the paste (this avoids paste from spoiling).
• Close the lid & refrigerate.
• Since we have used oil for grinding & storing, it will retain its aroma & freshness.
• You can store it for more than 1 year.

Note:  Always need to maintain a layer of oil on top & use dry spoon while taking the paste to avoid fungus formation.

Ginger Paste:

• Replace garlic with ginger & follow the same procedure.
