The jar must be sterilized, nowadays it is enough to be washed in the dishwasher because the same is usable vice versa, we have to put it in the oven at 100 ° for 20 ' approx.
If you like it, before closing the jar, we can add 3 cloves, they will bring a decided flavor to the mixture.
It is important to cool the whole thing upside down to make the jar seal itself.

Enjoy your meal!!!!!
