Preparation

  1. Combine the water, vinegar, salt, peppercorns, coriander seed and ginger root in a sauce pan. Bring to a boil over high heat and then simmer for 2 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
  2. Place the garlic in a one quart glass jar and pour the slightly cooled brine over it. Cool to room temperature and cover tightly. Refrigerate for 3 days for a mildly pickled garlic or for up to 10 days for an intensely flavored one. Serve as a condiment with rich meat or as a selection in an assortment of mezes.
