Vinegar

The vinegar is not just an ordinary food spice or food ingredients, its purpose go beyond the kitchen. Haven’t you heard the apple cider vinegar or the herb vinegar?

The first impression regarding or upon hearing and seeing a vinegar is sour. Yap, it sounds sour and taste sour and that is vinegar or that is the major characteristic of vinegar –sour. But that negative impression about vinegar will turn into a positive sweet impression when one discovers the sweet side of this sour substance. Yap, there is already a growing number of awareness of the sweetness this sour substance called vinegar, in case you are still among the ones who are still left behind. Actually, some already made their own homemade vinegarsand even the apple cider vinegar. If you are still haven’t any clue to what I am talking about perhaps you do not cook in your house or just only know that vinegar only adds spice on dishes or menus, or better yet you don’t rely on home remedies for simple illnesses and sickness but always rushing into your personal doctor for consultation or you rush to nearby drugstore or pharmacy to buy an over the counter medicine, don’t you?

It is pretty obvious that all of you who knew already what Vinegar could do for us aside from being an ingredient on foods will not be puzzled what I mean. For as we all knew it, vinegar has now been discovered that it has many purposes and usage that goes beyond you stove or kitchen. Take for example, if you are so thirsty, a mixture of cold water and apple cider vinegar will surely satisfy you thirsty sensation, you can try it by yourself and see for it. Speaking of quenching thirst, water plus vinegar will also quench your dirty window that is thirsty to be clean well, as well as your cold and gloomy walls or partitions that has been conquered of mold and mildew will be cleanse by your vinegar. Vinegar also could also remain stains well on your stainless steel material or property, just drop a pea of vinegar on a damp cloth then wipe it.

That was just some examples of other uses of vinegar aside from being an ingredient to food or salad dressing. Speaking of salad dressings, the kind of vinegar mostly used on salad dressings, gravies, sauces, and marinades is the herb vinegar. Herb vinegar is a combination of herbs and wine vinegar (the wine vinegar being the base part of it). Herb vinegars are much expensive than ordinary kitchen vinegar mostly use for cooking, because they are not just ordinary vinegar of course, but you can make one at home or you can make you own homemade herb vinegar to avoid buying expensive one at stores if you needed a herb vinegar for you gravies or salads. Herb vinegar can be also called flavored vinegar because it is a mixture of various herbs and spices like basil, rosemary, garlic, pepper, chili, mint, etc with wine vinegar as the base. Yap a herb vinegar like apple cider vinegar are organic vinegars that are made of course from organic materials and fermented naturally. A combination of both can be called gourmet vinegar. Actually, a herb vinegar can be also a gourmet vinegar because it a flavored vinegar that is use on dressings, gravies, etc.
