Raspberry vinegar
July 15, 2011 • Category: Pantry
I had no idea making a fancy raspberry (or any other berry or fruit) vinegar was that simple! This was a tip I learned from chef Marc Foucher. You can easily substitute any other fruit; this vinegar will keep very well in the fridge in a closed container. The key here is to use WHITE vinegar. METHOD:
- Pour the quantity of white vinegar that you need in a saucepan and bring to a boil.
- As soon as the vinegar boils, throw in the fruits and remove from heat; smash them gently a couple of seconds; let the vinegar sit at room temperature overnight. If pressed for time, place in the fridge and use one or two hours later.
- When ready to use, drain the vinegar into a container. Store in the fridge in a closed container.
Strawberries in raspberry vinegar: Sprinkle a few tablespoons of raw sugar on the strawberries, add a tablespoon of raspberry vinegar and macerate for 15 minutes. Serve.

We used to do this at the pioneer village where I used to work. If you use chive blossoms, you get a beautiful pale pink vinegar 🙂

What a nice departure from the usual fruit sauces. I love the idea of a homemade raspberry or blackberry vinegar for fresh or grilled veggies and meats. Great share!
