There is a now an approved procedure involving citric acid for consumers which I discussed in an answer to a related question. However, just tossing whole cloves in vinegar for a couple days may NOT guarantee safety, since the acidity level may not be high enough and/or the acid may not penetrate the garlic sufficiently. | |
