8 Whole garlics
Marinade
1 Deciliter water
2 Deciliters Balsamic Vinegar
1 Teaspoon salt
1 Teaspoon sugar
10 black peppercorns
1 Teaspoon mustard seeds
2 bay leafs
1/2 Deciliter oil
1 Teaspoon dried herbs (oregano for instance)
Boil the garlic cloves in water for about 5 minutes, this will make it easy to peel them. Put the peeled cloves in an airtight glass-container. Mix the marinade ingredients in a saucepan and boil for a couple off minutes. Pour the hot marinade over the garlic and close the lid. Let stand in a cool place for 1-2 weeks.
