Purple Dead Nettle Vinegar

Step 1

Add the dried herb to a quart-sized glass jar, filling it around 3/4 of the way full.

Step 2

Pour the vinegar over the top until the herbs are covered completely.

Step 3

Gently stir to remove any air bubbles. Add more dead nettle or vinegar if needed. The dried herb will swell as it infuses in vinegar, so be careful when adding extra dead nettle.

Step 4

Cover the jar with a food-safe plastic lid. You can also cover the jar top with waxed paper and use a metal lid if you don't want to use plastic. Vinegar will corrode metal lids.

Step 5

Shake the vinegar daily, or as often as you remember.

Step 6

After 2 weeks (or longer, if you forget), strain your vinegar through a metal mesh strainer lined with a clean, lint-free cloth. Squeeze any extra vinegar out of the herbal material before composting it.

Step 7

Pour the vinegar into a glass bottle (reuse the original vinegar bottle, if possible) and label it, including the date strained.
