Put three or four stalks of the herbs inside (many herbs are suitable for this, follow your taste), close the bottle and put it aside for 4 weeks. Afterwards use it as usual. The stalks stay inside the bottle. After you have used about 1/3 of the vinegar, refill the bottle and keep on using it until the taste weakens."}

The home-production is rather time-consuming, but you can buy ready-made ointments. If you want to try it nevertheless, here isan old recipe for marigold ointment: 1 packet of lard, 2 handful of marigold blossoms. Boil the lard, add the blossoms and simmer it for 1 hour. Let it coll down to room temperature, strain it, and wait till it hardens. An ointment for bruises, sprains, infections, rough skin... but admittedly, lard doesn't that thrilling. You can buy ready-made marigold ointments at all stockists."}
