Hey there Jimmy....I just did a bit of research. This article states that garlic, oregano, basil, and rosemary can be soaked for 24 hours in a 3% solution of citric acid for 24 hours at room temperature and it will negate any potential growth of botulism. There are some factors to meet though, like the size of the garlic cloves but it comes from what seems to be a viable source. Any thoughts? I just bought a ton of decorative bottles, corks, and shrink caps to make holiday gifts for our cooking friends but the last thing I want to do is get somebody sick...or worse.
Does this sound viable? It comes from the research center at the University of Idaho.
