Recipe - Lemon Tarragon Vinegar

1 cup Packed fresh tarragon leaves
plus sprigs, rinsed and
spun dry, for garnish
Peel from two lemons; pith
removed
2 cup White wine vinegar

Put the tarragon leaves in a very clean 1 quart glass jar and bruise them
with a wooden spoon. Add the peel from 1 lemon and the vinegar and let the
mixture steep, covered with the lid, in a cool dark place for at least 4
days and up to 2 weeks, depending on the strength desired. Strain the
vinegar through a fine sieve into a glass pitcher, discarding the solids,
and pour it into a very clean 1 pint glass jar. Add the tarragon sprigs and
the lemon peel and seal the jar with the lid.

Yield: 2 cups
