An Interesting Substitute - Apple Cider Vinegar





You know, vinegar is a wonderful for cleaning around the house, it's great for toning your skin, it's even good for really cool science experiments! But what about to eat?


Long story short, we get a lot of vinegar in our foods and it is a very powerful and, in excess, unhealthful acid. So for the sake of cutting this down, there are other things we can use to substitute. Watch excess acids anyway, as they can hurt your teeth, but eat mixtures of sour and bitter, and vary the healthful food sources of acids or alkalines (bitters) you eat!

Here is a neat little substitute for apple cider vinegar and it's high in Vitamin C, too. :-)

Apple Cider Un-Vinegar

1 cup water, or 2 tsp citric acid
10,000 mg vitamin C
¼ teaspoon salt
1 ½ teaspoons turbinado sugar
1 ½ tablespoons apple juice concentrate

This is a less-irritating substitute for vinegar to be used in recipes.
Blend all until very smooth. Use in place of vinegar in recipes.
