vinegar is too sharp to replicate a nondistilled vinegar, and cider and
balsamic are both aged vinegars and have softened in flavor as they would
have in the middle ages. >>
I also use cider vinegar. I don't make my own though. (No place for the
barrel. ) We used to make it on the farm. I RARELY use distilled vinegar as I
find the flavor to be less than desirable for most recipes. I currently have
cider, balsamic, distilled white, red wine, white wine, and several flavored
vinegars in my larder. Each of which is indispensable in it's proper place.
BTW, I uncorked a bottle of garlic/herb vinegar yesterday that Lady Aoife had
gifted me with at the Roc feast and found it superb sprinkled over the
dandelion greens I had cooked with a little bacon in them. Thanks. ;-)
