1/2 teaspoon 2.5mlSugar
1/2 teaspoon 2.5mlPickling salt

Store in refrigerator at least one month before using garlic. It will keep well for one year in the refrigerator.

Cook's note: I used commercially peeled garlic in this recipe. After a week, I noticed that some of the cloves had turned a blue-green color. Ziedrich said that the discoloration is harmless, and added that the cloves that discolored were probably either immature or old.
