Apple cider vinegar is one of those products that, for their availability, have excellent healing properties.

Apple cider vinegar can be used not only as a natural preservative or seasoning to various dishes, such as salads, meats, etc., but also as a therapeutic agent with a whole complex of useful healing properties. Thus, apple cider vinegar is a natural product that, along with honey, medicinal plants, mummy and other healing agents, is a wonderful natural remedy that can give health.

Apple Cider Vinegar Information

When cooking and canning vegetables and fruits, apple, white distilled and wine vinegar are used. But apple vinegar is strikingly different from other vinegars in its quality, chemical composition and effect on the human body. Special properties make it healing and allow you to expand the boundaries of the use of this product and use it as a therapeutic agent for many diseases.

As a result of wine fermentation, vinegar is obtained, which on average contains 3–9% acetic acid and a small percentage of tartaric acid. It is acetic acid that causes the destruction of living cells. Apple cider vinegar is made from whole fruits of sweet varieties of apples. Because of this, it does not contain any acetic acid that is dangerous for the body, but it contains malic acid in sufficient quantity, which has valuable and beneficial properties. This remarkable organic acid supports normal digestion, being an important building block that interacts in the human body with minerals and alkalis, and is capable of forming glycogen - a kind of energy reserve. In addition to acid, apple cider vinegar contains flavonoids, some trace elements and vitamins.

Apple cider vinegar made from finely chopped apples at home for a long time, but at the same time you can get a natural product of the highest quality. It may take several months to prepare it.

Vinegar can be used in industrial production, but it should be borne in mind that it is made from the cores and peel of apple fruits, which leads to some reduction in the quality of the product. In addition, the vinegar of the industrial mode of production, obtained as a result of the fermentation process of young apple wine, has a higher price and quality than the same vinegar prepared with the help of apple essence. The first is recommended and preferred.

The process of obtaining apple cider vinegar during the fermentation of young apple juice or wine depends on how sweet the apple varieties were used for this purpose. The more sugar in the raw materials, the greater the percentage of alcohol will be in the wort, which contributes to the formation of acetic acid.

In some cases, to improve the fermentation process, a so-called acetic womb is used, which is a foamy mucous film of yeast-like fungi that occurs on the surface of fermenting wine or juice. This film itself has active healing properties, three times superior to the healing properties of vinegar itself. The treatment of the acetic uterus must be very careful, because the bacteria are sensitive and can easily die if the fermenting drink is disturbed, for example, moving from place to place.

Natural apple cider vinegar can be distinguished from synthetic on several grounds. It has a strength of 4–5%, while synthetic - usually 9%.

Natural apple cider vinegar purchased at the store is labeled with the words: "Ingredients: Apple Cider Vinegar". On the label of a product of synthetic origin can be read: "composition: acetic acid 9%, flavoring, dye."

The price of natural apple cider vinegar exceeds the price of synthetic more than 2 times.

How to cook apple cider vinegar

As mentioned above, homemade apple cider vinegar is distinguished by higher quality, good taste and medicinal properties due to the fact that selected apples are used as raw materials. The concentration of homemade vinegar is somewhat lower compared to the product prepared in an industrial environment.

There are several ways to make apple cider vinegar.

Recipe 1.

This recipe was suggested by Dr. D.S. Jarvis.

Apples wash, remove damaged parts. Rub the fruit prepared in such a way on a coarse grater. Then grated apples are placed in an enamel or glass jar. For every 800 g of raw material, add 1 liter of warm boiled water. Put honey or sugar in the mixture (100 g per 1 liter of water). In order to ferment the process faster, dry rye bread (20 g per 1 liter or 10 g of yeast per liter) is added to the mush.

The mixture is kept in an open vessel at a temperature of 20–30 ° C. Fermenting pulp is mixed with a wooden spoon 2-3 times a day. After 10 days, it is squeezed through gauze, then the resulting liquid is filtered and placed in a jar, sugar or honey (50-100 g per 1 liter of juice) is added, and then the jar is closed with gauze and placed in a warm place to continue fermentation. The processes leading to the formation of apple cider vinegar, according to the recipe of Dr. Jarvi, last 40-60 days.

The resulting vinegar should be filtered again, bottled, tightly corked. It is best to keep the vinegar in a cold place, while the temperature should be maintained within 6-8 ° C.

Recipe 2.

In accordance with this recipe for the preparation of apple cider vinegar you need to use the drop or over-ripe fruit. Apples intended for the production of therapeutic vinegar, in the process of their growth and maturation are not treated with chemicals against diseases and harmful insects. It is also not recommended to apply increased rates of chemical fertilizers as a top dressing of trees.

Apples are prepared as follows: they are washed, cut with a knife into small pieces or crushed to obtain slurry, put into a saucepan and poured with boiled water, heated to a temperature of about 65–70 ° C. Water is poured so that it covers the crushed fruit by 3-4 cm.

In the prepared mass (depending on whether the sweet or sour variety of apples was used) add 50-100 g of sugar per kilogram.

In order for the fermentation process to proceed most successfully, a large area of ​​contact between the surface of the apple mass and air is necessary, so you should use a pan with a wide bottom and neck.

Fermentation should take place in a warm place. Several times a day for 14 days, the pulp is stirred to prevent the top layer from drying out. It should not destroy the thick foamy whitish film - acetic uterus - in the case of its formation on the surface, as it also has valuable healing properties, as mentioned above. Then the mass is filtered through 2-3 layers of gauze, separating the liquid, which is poured into the banks for further fermentation.

Each canister at the top should have a free space of 5–7 cm in height to avoid overflow of fluid.

Vinegar is considered ready after 2 weeks. It is poured (trying not to stir up) into bottles, which are well sealed (for long storage cork can be filled with paraffin). The precipitate is drained, filtered through thick cotton fabric and stored in a separate bottle.

Cans or bottles of vinegar are stored in a dark place at a temperature of 4-20 ° C.

Recipe 3.

For the preparation of apple cider vinegar in this recipe, the processed apples (washed, without rotten and wormed areas), including the peel and the core, are rubbed on a medium grater or crushed.

Warm boiled water is added to the mush, the amount of which is equal to the amount of the apple mass obtained. Then add another 100 g of sugar or honey for each liter of the mass and yeast - 100 g for every 10 kg.

In order for the vinegar to ferment normally, no more than 20% of the sugar must be present in the liquid, from which alcohol is obtained.

After that, the mixture is poured into wide pans, where it should undergo primary fermentation for 10 days. The pan is covered with gauze. Apple mixture should be periodically stirred.

After 10 days, the composition should be drained and add a new portion of honey (at the rate of 100 g of honey per 1 l). Then stir thoroughly until the honey is completely dissolved.

Further fermentation of the mixture should take place in bottles into which it is poured without sealing, but only by covering them with gauze. Bottles should be stored in a warm place.

The readiness of vinegar is judged by whether the fermentation processes have ceased. This period may have a duration of 4–6 weeks. In this case, the liquid becomes clear, a precipitate is observed, which is carefully separated by pouring the finished vinegar with a hose. After that, it is again filtered using 3 layers of gauze, bottled, sealed with corks, which are poured with wax, and stored in a refrigerator or in another cool place.

After a few months, reddish flakes may appear in the bottles - sediment, which is completely harmless.
