Step by Step Method

Step 1

Put the vinegar in a saucepan over medium heat and simmer for 5 minutes, until warm.

Step 2

Place the nasturtium flowers in a jar with a thigh-fitting lid and pour the warm vinegar over the flowers and seal the jar tightly and leave in direct sunlight for up to a week to extract the colour and flavour from the flowers.

Step 3

Store in a cool, dry place for another week, then strain the vinegar through a fine-mesh sieve into a sterilised glass jar, discarding the flowers.

Step 4

NOTE - Use the vinegar in marinades for meat and seafood, to make a vinaigrette or drizzle over a salad. Rose petals, chive flowers, hibiscus or rose geraniums also work well.
