This is the ultimate condiment - it will go nicely with or enhance the flavors of many of the entries in this contest. The best use of it in the world is on scrambled eggs! Bring on the kim chee fried rice and Portuguese sausage - I'm ready for breakfast! —CookOnTheFly

What You'll Need
Ingredients
  • 1 tablespoon White Vinegar
  • 2-3 slices of slightly macerated fresh ginger root
  • 3-5 cloves of garlic, cut in half
  • 2 tablespoons Hawaiian Sea Salt (redpink)
  • 5-8 Fresh Thai Chilis
  • 1 quart hot water - not boiling
Directions
  1. Place ginger root, garlic and Thai chilis in the bottom of a clean glass container that has a tight lid (i.e. an old mayonnaise jar). Top with vinegar and Hawaiian salt. Pour in the hot water and shake vigorously. Let sit in the back of your fridge for a day or two to develop the flavors. Keeps well for about a month in the fridge. Use liberally!
