Vinegar Substitutes

When looking for a recipe for vinegar-free barbecue sauce on your forum, i discovered many people looking for vinegar substitutes. i have found a great one in William Crook's book Yeast Connection Cookbook!!

Mix 1 tsp unbuffered corn-free vitamin c crystals with 1/2 cup room temp or warm water. Combine in a small jar, put on lid and shake to dissolve. Store in frig and use within a week. (i actually just grind Vitamin C tablets that are unbuffered in a small coffee grinder(i don't use it for coffee) and keep the powder in the frig and then mix it with water when i want to use it. They recommend a product called "Dull-C" by Freeda Vitamins but i have not tried it.

i use it to make salad dressing when i am tired of the taste of lemon juice.

We use a number of different tropical fruits as vinegar substitutes here. Bilimbi is a sour relative of starfruit which when juiced is a great nutritious substitute. You can also use green starfruit. Calamonsie lime is a good one too. These can be found in Philippine groceries since they are the basis for many dishes there. Try acerola sometime too.

I have not eaten vinegar since 2002 LOL :lol:

I use the citric acid powder you buy in the canning foods section (it's straight vitamin C)

you don't have to smash anything up if you're feeling lazy ;) hehehe

And ken always has marvelous alternatives! B)

Be healthy!!! :) enjoy your barbeque

OH I have a wonderful Aioli/Mayo recipe I'll share here (it's a great base you can add anything to it!)

1 1/4 cups Olive Oil

3 TB Lemon Juice

1 organic egg

1/4 tsp Salt

pinch dry mustard powder

*make sure your ingredients are at room temp or you won't get good emulsion ;)

In a blender or food processor add egg, salt, mustard and 1/4 cup olive oil, blend for 60 seconds.

While blender is running, add 1/2 cup more olive oil, alternate to lemon juice, then back to the remaining 1/2 cup olive oil. Blend until creamy and thick.

Things I like to add: Tarragon, Dill, Garlic, Roasted Garlic, Chipotle, (I use the powder since it has no vinegar), Cayenne, Curry Powder, Wasabi . Chili-Lime (I use Lime juice instead of Lemon)

Go crazy!!! I keep different flavors in different condiment squeezy bottles in the fridge. I use dill a lot and wasabi too!

love love

Yumm!

made something like it last night for fresh artichoke hearts and chopped figs

but used yuzu peel powder instead of the mustard.

One of the farmers at a high elevation here started growing artichokes which I cant grow in my area.

The difference in fresh ones and the stuff shipped in is amazing!

take care

I read that Brag's unfiltered apple cider vinegar is actually good for fighting yeast infection, anyone have any experience with that ?

Don't know, but I've read apple cider vinegar can actually cure heartburn depending on the particular cause.

I am not sure MrsMH... I haven't eaten vinegar (including apple cider) in years because of my leaky gut problem...

I hope you find the answers you are looking for :)

I can attest to this FIRST HAND!!!

I had horrible heart burn all three times I was pregnant. HORRIBLE.

My last one, we had a friend who was a naturopath. He recommended Braggs...take 1 tbs, chased with 8 oz water (do not dilute FIRST then drink...take the tablespoon, count to 5 and then drink the water).

I took that at about 7 months (he told me at three but it took a few months for me to work up the nerve to try it!).

Within an hour I had no heartburn. none. Not even a smidge.

And it didn't return for 18 months.

Now I do it every couple of months as a preventative measure, and I haven't had heartburn again! :D

      Headaches / Migraines and Hypoglycaemia

      By trents · Posted

      My migraines generally have their onset during the early morning hours as well. Presently, I am under siege with them, having headaches all but two days so far this month. I have looked at all the things reported to be common triggers (foods, sleep patterns, weather patterns, stress, etc.). Every time I think I start to see a pattern it proves not to pan out in the long run. I'm not sure it's any one thing but may, instead, be a combination of things that coalesce at certain times. It's very frustrating. The medication (sumatriptan or "Imatrix") is effective and is the only thing that will quell the pain. NSAIDs, Tylenol, even hydrocodone doesn't touch it. But they only give you 9 does of sumatriptan a month. And it doesn't help that medical science doesn't really know what causes migraines. They know some things about it but the root cause is still a mystery.

      GI DX celiac despite neg serology and no biopsy

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Just a gluten free diet is not enough.  Now you have to identify and replenish your malnutrition.  Celiac disease is co-morbid with malabsorption syndrome.  Low vitamin D, Low Thiamine caused Gastointeston Beriberi, low choline, low iodine are common the general population, and in newly diagnosed Celiacs in the western culture its is more likely.  It takes time to heal and you need to focus on vitamins and minerals.  Gluten free foods are not fortified like regular processed foods.

      Headaches / Migraines and Hypoglycaemia

      By Sarah Grace · Posted

      Dear Kitty Since March I have been following your recommendations regarding vitamins to assist with various issues that I have been experiencing.  To recap, I am aged 68 and was late diagnosed with Celiac about 12 years ago.  I had been experiencing terrible early morning headaches which I had self diagnosed as hypoglycaemia.  I also mentioned that I had issues with insomnia, vertigo and brain fog.   It's now one year since I started on the Benfotiamine 600 mg/day.  I am still experiencing the hypoglycaemia and it's not really possible to say for sure whether the Benfotiamine is helpful.  In March this year, I added B-Complex Thiamine Hydrochloride and Magnesium L-Threonate on a daily basis, and I am now confident to report that the insomnia and vertigo and brain fog have all improved!!  So, very many thanks for your very helpful advice. I am now less confident that the early morning headaches are caused by hypoglycaemia, as even foods with a zero a GI rating (cheese, nuts, etc) can cause really server headaches, which sometimes require migraine medication in order to get rid off.  If you are able to suggest any other treatment I would definitely give it a try, as these headaches are a terrible burden.  Doctors in the UK have very limited knowledge concerning dietary issues, and I do not know how to get reliable advice from them. Best regards,

      @rei.b,  I understand how frustrating starting a new way of eating can be.  I tried all sorts of gluten-free processed foods and just kept feeling worse.  My health didn't improve until I started the low histamine AIP diet.  It makes a big difference.   Gluten fits into opioid receptors in our bodies.  So, removing gluten can cause withdrawal symptoms and reveals the underlying discomfort.  SIBO can cause digestive symptoms.  SIBO can prevent vitamins from being absorbed by the intestines.  Thiamine insufficiency causes Gastrointestinal Beriberi (bloating, abdominal pain, nausea, diarrhea or constipation).  Thiamine is the B vitamin that runs out first because it can only be stored for two weeks.  We need more thiamine when we're sick or under emotional stress.  Gastric Beriberi is under recognised by doctors.  An Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity test is more accurate than a blood test for thiamine deficiency, but the best way to see if you're low in thiamine is to take it and look for health improvement.  Don't take Thiamine Mononitrate because the body can't utilize it well.  Try Benfotiamine.  Thiamine is water soluble, nontoxic and safe even at high doses.  I thought it was crazy, too, but simple vitamins and minerals are important.  The eight B vitamins work together, so a B Complex, Benfotiamine,  magnesium and Vitamin D really helped get my body to start healing, along with the AIP diet.  Once you heal, you add foods back in, so the AIP diet is worth doing for a few months. I do hope you'll consider the AIP diet and Benfotiamine.
