Special Ingredients
Remove the apricot stems. Then, to prevent mould, soak kitchen paper with vodka and wipe the apricots well.
Mix the salt and Special Ingredients Citric Acid in a freezer pack, add the apricots and shake the bag to mix. The apricots will release water as they soak.
Soak the apricots in the syrup for 2 weeks, shaking the bag every few days until all of the apricots are soaking in the syrup.
After 2 weeks, drain the apricots from the syrup and lay them on a net / rack to dry in sunlight for 2 - 3 days. If possible, turn the apricots twice a day. The liquid that the apricots were soaking in can be used as vinegar and/or dressings for pickles.
The apricots can be enjoyed immediately, or stored in a sealed container in the fridge.
