Vinegar Uses are Many and Diverse

Vinegar is a versatile substance. It can be used externally and internally, around the house, and vinegar can be used outside in and about your yard. Read and share these vinegar uses and vinegar ideas with your friends and neighbors. They will be delighted.

Vinegar has been made and used by people for thousands of years. Traces of it have been found in Egyptian urns from around 3000 BC (a testament to vinegar's preservative powers).

A dab'll Do Ya. 

When you can't find your deoderant, here is a vinegar quick-fix that will keep you fresh.

When you can't find your deodorant, dabbing apple cider vinegar under your arms after you shower may inhibit odor-causing bacteria on your skin, according to the book Natural Healing with Cider Vinegar (Sterling Publishing, 1998). Odor under the armpit is caused by the existence and growth of bacteria there. Kill the bacteria - kill the odor. Vinegar smell should go away fast.

Great barbecue sauce

I finally found a barbecue sauce that is not overly sticky sweet and features vinegar. Courtesy of the folks over at White House Foods:

Sweet and Sour Barbecue Sauce (Makes: 1 cup)
1/2 cup Hoisin sauce*
1/4 cup Apple Cider vinegar
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons soy sauce

Mix all ingredients in a small bowl.

Brush over fully-cooked ribs, other pork, chicken, beef or steak-style fish such as swordfish, salmon or tuna;

Continue to cook until barbecue sauce sets and turns a pleasant spotty brown.

Serve with extra sauce for dipping.

*Hoisin sauce (sometimes called Peking Sauce) is a thick, reddish-brown sauce with a sweet and spicy flavor. It can be found in the Asian cooking section of most grocery stores.

Will it Float? 

Do your pills dissolve in your body as they should?

Everyone has heard of the stories of thousands of undissolved vitamin pills washing up on shore on the Atlantic coast. Well if you want to test to see if your pills properly digest in your stomach where they can benefit you, do this:

Drop the pill into a glass of clear vinegar. Stir occasionally. If the pill disintegrates within 30 minutes, it should dissolve in your stomach too.

Vinegar for Fluffy Rice, Removing Smoke Odor and Freshening Wilted Vegetables 

"Use these quick vinegar tips."

Goodbye Burnt Smells
If you've recently burned a steak -- or if your chain-smoking relative recently paid you a surprise visit -- remove the lingering smoky odor by placing a shallow bowl about three-quarters full of white or cider vinegar in the room where the scent is strongest. Use several bowls if the smell permeates your entire home. The odor should be gone in less than a day, (but your visitor may not). You can also quickly dispense of the smell of fresh cigarette smoke inside a room by moistening a cloth with vinegar and waving it around a bit. Stay fresh!

Vinegar for Fluffy Rice
To make fluffier rice add 1 tsp. vinegar to cooking water.

Freshen wilted vegetables

Perk up soggy leafy vegetables by soaking them in 2 cups cold water mixed with 1 tablespoon vinegar for 20 minutes. Rinse, dry and serve. This allows you to save money by not having to go out and buy new vegetables.

Enjoy!

All Around Tonic 

"Drink apple cider vinegar to address a host of maladies."

Dilute apple cider vinegar with water (about two tablespoons in a glass of water) add a tablespoon of honey. This will help prevent apathy, obesity, hay fever, asthma, rashes, food poisoning, heartburn, sore throat, bad eyesight, dandruff (use as a rinse), brittle nails and bad breath. I drink a glass a day and gargle to expel sticky mucous.

Vinegar Has Cholesterol Lowering Effect 

"Try the apple cider variety"

A scientific study published in 2006 concluded that a test group of rats fed with acetic acid (the main component of vinegar) had "significantly lower values for serum total cholesterol and triacylglycerols", among other health benefits.

A Few Vinegars You Might Not Have Heard of. 

Coconut

Coconut vinegar, made from the sap, or "toddy," of the coconut palm, is used extensively in Southeast Asian cuisine (particularly in the Philippines, a major producer of the product), as well as in some cuisines of India. A cloudy white liquid, it has a particularly sharp, acidic taste with a slightly yeasty note.

Beer

Vinegar made from beer is produced in Germany, Austria, and the Netherlands. Although its flavor depends on the particular type of beer from which it is made, it is often described as having a malty taste. That produced in Bavaria is a light golden color, with a very sharp and not overly complex flavor.

Honey

Vinegar made from honey is rare, though commercially available honey vinegars are produced in Italy and France.

Vinegar Takes Out The Weeds 

Kill weeds between cracks in paving stones and sidewalks. Fill a spray bottle with straight white vinegar (Pickling vinegar works even better.)and spray multiple times. Be careful not to get any on the surrounding grass, as it will kill that too.

Keep those Musquitoes Away 

"Spritz this all natural spray to keep mosquitoes away".

Got mosquitoes? Make your own repellent by mixing 1/3 cup of apple cider vinegar, 1/3 cup of witch hazel, and 5 drops of citronella oil in a spray bottle. Shake it up, and spritz it on your exposed skin. Bye - bye Mr. buzzy!

Clean and Soften Your Clothes 

You can use vinegar to remove food stains from clothing and the carpet.

You can also use white vinegar as a fabric softener in the wash. Boy does it make your clothing bright and fluffy! The vinegar smell goes away with drying.

Clean Your Window Blinds With Vinegar 

You can easily clean your blinds by mixing one part vinegar with one part water. Get a cleaning glove of soft material. Dip your gloved hand in the solution and use your fingers to wipe the blinds clean. You might want to keep a container of clean water close by to rinse the glove.
