1, 5 kg of garlic peeled off two layers of skin, cut off the fibrous roots with scissors, cut off the garlic stems about 2 cm, and washed with clear water to remove the sediment on the surface.
2. Prepare a proper amount of water in the basin and add 50 grams of salt. After stirring and dissolving, put the cleaned garlic in it and soak it for about 24 hours, and change the salt water once in the middle to remove some spicy taste of garlic.
3. Take out the soaked garlic with a colander and control the moisture, otherwise it will go bad easily.
4. Prepare 1 0,000g of clean water in the pot, then add 1 0,000g of balsamic vinegar, then add 700g of rock sugar and 500g of soy sauce (i.e. the ratio of sweet and sour juice is vinegar: sugar: soy sauce = 10:7:5), bring to a boil with high fire, and stir while cooking.
5. Prepare a pickling container and put the dried garlic layer by layer.
