½ tsp ground cinnamon

2 whole cloves

2 tsp sea salt

1 tsp dried thyme (or 1 sprig of fresh)

¼ cup white vinegar

½ cup water

½ cup olive oil

Directions:

Place all ingredients except the olive oil into a slow cooker and place onto low setting for about two hours. The onions and Moritas should be soft.
