Vinegar Substitutes


tennisnut

Recommended Posts

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

Java-Chile Spice Rub

1/2 cup ground Coffee

3 tablespoons ground pasilla or ancho chile

3 tablespoons coarse salt, kosher or sea

2 tablespoons packed brown sugar

1 tablespoon coarsely ground black pepper

Mix the spices thoroughly in bowl.

Store covered in a cool dark pantry.

Enjoy! This rub I love on New York steaks... I have used it on Salmon and London Broils too....

I've mixed it in with Ground beef, ground bison, and ground turkey

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

      Hi,  My 7 year daughter has complained of this in the past, which I thought were part of her glutening symptom, but more recently I have come to figure out it's part of her histamine overload symptom. This one symptom was part of her broader profile, which included irritability, extreme hunger, confusion, post-nasal drip. You might want to look up "histamine intolerance". I wish I had known of this at the time of her diagnosis, life would have been much easier.  I hope you are able to figure out.

      My 5yo was diagnosed with celiac last year by being tested after his sister was diagnosed. We are very strict on the gluten-free diet, but unsure what his reactions are as he was diagnosed without many symptoms other than low ferritin.  He had a school party where his teacher made gluten-free gingerbread men. I almost said no because she made it in her kitchen but I thought it would be ok.  Next day and for a few after his behavior is awful. Hitting, rude, disrespectful. Mainly he kept saying his legs were shaking. Is this a gluten exposure symptom that anyone else gets? Also the bad behavior?

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified Gluten" in any given batch run. It just means there could be.

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.
