Step 2: Prepare the Onion
Peel the onion and chop it into very small pieces.
Smaller pieces help distribute its flavor throughout the mixture.
Step 3: Crush the Garlic
Peel the garlic cloves and crush them gently.
Allowing crushed garlic to stand for approximately 10 minutes before mixing can help activate the enzyme involved in allicin formation.
Step 4: Prepare the Lemon
Wash the lemon thoroughly, cut it in half, and squeeze out the juice.
Remove any seeds.
Step 5: Combine the Ingredients
Place the grated ginger, chopped onion, and crushed garlic into a clean glass bowl.
Add the freshly squeezed lemon juice.
Step 6: Add the Honey
Pour in the honey and mix everything thoroughly until the ingredients are evenly combined.
Step 7: Transfer to a Glass Jar
Transfer the mixture into a clean, food-safe glass container.
Close the lid tightly.
Step 8: Refrigerate
Place the container in the refrigerator immediately.
Do not leave this homemade mixture at room temperature for several days to ferment. The combination of fresh ingredients and honey is not a validated preservation method.
