Vinegar is a product obtained during the life of acetic acid bacteria. These amazing bacteria are present wherever the process of sugar fermentation occurs, the natural result of which is the formation of ethanol. Once in an environment containing alcohol, acetic acid bacteria begin to synthesize vinegar.

Curious historical facts

• Translated from ancient Greek, “oxos” means “sour.”
• Humanity became acquainted with vinegar as long ago as with wine: ancient manuscripts testify to this. Already in ancient Babylon, its inhabitants knew how to make date wine and date vinegar. And this was almost seven thousand years ago.
• Ancient people used vinegar as a food seasoning, household antiseptic, as well as a hygiene product and in medicine.
• Mentions of vinegar can be found in the Bible and the Sunnah. Information about vinegar began to appear in Chinese manuscript sources three thousand years ago, and Japanese evidence dates back to the fourth century AD.
• Louis Pasteur scientifically proved in 1864 that vinegar is a product of microbiological synthesis.

What is vinegar made from?

The raw material for the production of vinegar can be almost any food product that contains natural saccharides (maltose, glucose, fructose).

Thanks to the action of yeast, which starts the fermentation process, fermented natural sugars are converted into ethyl alcohol, which, under the influence of acetic acid bacteria, is processed into natural vinegar.

Natural vinegar preserves the taste and aroma of the raw materials used for its production. So, what varieties? natural vinegar most popular in different countries of the world?

• Vinegar– a product obtained as a result of the oxidation of wine. From white wine you get white vinegar, from red wine you get red vinegar. Wine vinegar, characterized by its mild taste, is used to prepare delicious desserts, fruit salads and gourmet sauces.

The most valuable and aromatic varieties of wine vinegar are produced from the best brands of expensive wine (pinot gris, champagne, sherry), aging them in oak barrels.

• Apple vinegar, which is produced from apple cider, has a golden color and a pleasant aroma of apples. The concentration of natural apple cider vinegar can be comparable to the concentration of vinegar essence, therefore, to make a ready-to-use product, it is recommended to dilute it with either drinking or slightly sweetened water, as well as fruit juices.

Apple cider vinegar is a prominent representative of fruit and berry vinegars, the starting raw materials for which are berry or fruit wines. Vinegar can also be peach, currant, sea buckthorn, or raspberry.

In cooking, the use of apple cider vinegar is limited to salad dressings and use in the preparation of marinades and sauces.

• Beer vinegar, obtained from beer, is consumed in large quantities by residents of Austria and Germany. The taste and aroma of this product are determined by the taste of the drink used.
• Malt vinegar- a favorite product of the British people. The result of barley fermentation, expensive malt vinegar is reminiscent of the famous English ale with its thick consistency and deep brown color. There are cheaper varieties of malt vinegar that are made by diluting acetic acid flavored with caramel essence.

Aging balsamic vinegar takes from six years to a quarter of a century, and the most valuable species of cherry, juniper, chestnut and oak are used to make barrels intended for this process.

• Rice vinegar(a pale yellow liquid with a peculiar aroma and mild taste) is a product obtained during the oxidation of rice wine or during the fermentation of rice. It is used to season noodles and soups, fruit and vegetable salads, and is used to cook rice intended for making sushi.

The most expensive varieties of rice vinegar are black and red vinegar - favorite seasonings of the Chinese. Red rice vinegar has a pleasant sweetish taste. The aroma of black vinegar is more intense, with a slight hint of smoke.

• Vinegar maybe alcohol, if the base for its production is food grade ethyl alcohol.
• When flavoring alcohol vinegar with natural extracts of herbs (thyme, dill, basil, garlic, parsley, oregano, tarragon) and various spices, it turns out flavored alcohol vinegar.

All of the above types of vinegar, made from natural raw materials, are natural, but there is also synthetic vinegar, obtained by diluting acetic acid, which is obtained in the laboratory.

How is acetic acid obtained?

There are several ways to produce acetic acid:

1. It is produced from natural gas using a chemical synthesis method.
2. It is a by-product obtained during the production of chemical fertilizers.
3. Wood chemical acetic acid is obtained by processing wood waste (sawdust).

Absolute (or glacial) acetic acid is a product whose concentration is 100%. When glacial acetic acid is diluted with water to 70-80%, vinegar essence is obtained, which is indicated in the list of ingredients included in the product as additive E260.

In a number of countries (for example, Bulgaria, the United States and France), the use of synthetic acetic acid for food purposes is prohibited.

Acetic essence can be purchased both in pure form and in the form of table vinegar, which is an aqueous (3-9%) solution of acetic acid. You can bring the taste of synthetic table vinegar closer to the taste of a natural product if you infuse it with spices, aromatic herbs and fruits, or use artificial flavors.

What percentage is in table vinegar?

On the shelves of modern grocery stores you can find table vinegar with a strength of 3%, 6% and 9%. Vinegar with 9% acetic acid is used to prepare marinades for canning. It is too strong for human consumption, but 3% and 6% vinegar can be safely seasoned in salads and used to improve the taste of your favorite dishes.

It is curious that European residents consume almost four liters of natural vinegar throughout the year, which is 20 times higher than the amount of the same product in the diet of Russian citizens (our compatriots limit themselves to only 200 ml of this seasoning).

Housewives use vinegar essence to make their own table vinegar. Depending on the purpose (dressing a salad, preparing a marinade, canning fruits or vegetables), vinegar of different concentrations may be needed in the kitchen, so every housewife should do this correctly.

It is necessary to follow the exact recipe for preparing table vinegar at home not only so as not to spoil the taste of the dish, but also for one more reason. The fact is that acetic acid and water have different densities, so to obtain a high-quality solution, you must carefully observe the correct ratio of parts.

Concentrated vinegar essence cannot be used undiluted for cooking, as this can cause poisoning or severe burns.

How to prepare 9% vinegar? Table vinegar of this concentration is used when preserving vegetables and fruits. To prepare 9% vinegar, you can use vinegar essence with a concentration of 30%, 70% or 80%.

How to prepare 9% vinegar:

• When using 30% vinegar essence, one part of it is diluted with two parts of water (for example, take two tablespoons of water for one tablespoon of essence).
• Making table vinegar 9% from 70%, the amount of water is increased to seven parts to one part acid (a spoonful of essence to seven spoons of water).
• 80% essence requires diluting it with an amount of water eight times greater than the volume of acetic acid solution (that is, a tablespoon of essence should be diluted in eight tablespoons of water).

There is a universal formula with which you can easily determine how much water needs to be diluted with vinegar essence to obtain table vinegar of the required concentration.

Universal calculation formula for preparing table vinegar

If the concentration of the vinegar essence you have is divided by the concentration of table vinegar that you need to obtain, you will get a number showing how many times the amount of the resulting solution should exceed the amount of essence taken.

Let's explain with an example: We have 80% vinegar essence. We need to get 5% table vinegar. Divide 80 by 5 and get 16. This means that one part of the essence must be diluted with 15 parts of water. If the division results in a fractional number, it should be rounded up.

Another example: you want to get 3% vinegar from 70% vinegar essence. Divide 70 by 3, we get 23.3. We round the result to 23.5 and conclude that for one part of essence we need to take 22.5 parts of water.

Most often, vinegar of this concentration is used to marinate meat.

How to get 6% vinegar?

1. Having an essence with a strength of 80%, one part of it is diluted with twelve parts of water.
2. At 70% acid strength, add 10.5 parts of water to it.
3. To dilute one part of 30% essence, add four parts of water.

In this case, ordinary shot glasses or small glasses are most often used as a measurement.

How much vinegar is in a tablespoon?

Since vinegar is a seasoning with a pronounced sour taste, an overdose of it can ruin the taste of any dish (especially one you are preparing for the first time). Therefore, it is important for inexperienced housewives to know:

1 tablespoon = 15 g vinegar

What is the density of vinegar?

Aqueous solutions of acetic acid have different densities depending on the strength of a particular solution. The density of absolute (glacial) acetic acid is 1.05 kg/l.

The density of vinegar essence has the following indicators:

• 30% – 1.0383 kg/l.
• 70% - 1.0686 kg/l.
• 80% - 1.0699 kg/l.

Density of table vinegar:

• 3% - 1.002 kg/l.
• 6% - 1.006 kg/l.
• 9% - 1.011 kg/l.

All indicated values ​​are valid at room temperature of 20 degrees Celsius. It should be noted that an increase in ambient temperature affects a decrease in the density of these solutions.

Vinegar is most often drunk by mistake when the dangerous liquid is either poured into an inappropriate container, or when it is stored in an easily accessible place and falls into the hands of small children or drunken family members. There is another reason why acetic acid can be harmful to human health. This is what suicides do, not thinking about the painful death they are dooming themselves to.

The severity of the lesion is determined by the amount of acetic acid drunk and the strength of its solution. Solutions whose strength exceeds 30% can pose a danger to life.

Consequences of concentrated acetic acid entering the human body:

• In the best case scenario, a person may receive extremely painful burns to the mouth, lips, and esophagus. This condition is always accompanied by excruciating and rather long-lasting pain, especially noticeable at the time of eating.
• Healing of burns inevitably leads to tightening and deformation of the tissues of the mucous membranes and nearby internal organs. In severe cases, severe tissue damage can lead to complete occlusion of the esophagus, which leads to impaired swallowing function.
• Vinegar vapors often cause burns to the trachea and larynx. This can lead to partial or complete loss of voice and problems with breathing (it will be difficult).
• If a large amount of a concentrated solution of acetic acid enters the human body, this can result in very serious burns to the stomach, which already has an acidic environment, since the gastric juice contains no less concentrated hydrochloric acid.

If acetic acid enters the stomach, a person may vomit blood and experience severe gastrointestinal bleeding. The most terrible consequence of a fatal mistake is complete perforation (or perforation) of the stomach with the formation of a through hole in its wall, through which everything it contained can enter the abdominal cavity.

In this case, even with timely and qualified medical care, scars will inevitably appear inside the stomach, tightening it, due to which part of this organ will subsequently have to be removed.

Where is balsamic vinegar used?

Balsamic vinegar (or balsamic), called the “king of vinegars,” has a fairly wide range of uses.

• In cooking, it is used to season salads, served with fish, meat, and vegetables (both as an independent seasoning and as an ingredient in exquisite marinades), and used to enrich the taste of first and second courses.

Balsamic vinegar should not be exposed to heat, as this will completely lose all its beneficial qualities. It is served to the table only chilled, and when adding it to hot dishes, cool them down a little.

• In medicine, balsamic vinegar is used as an antibacterial agent, washing wounds, gargling, or wiping the skin. Due to its low calorie content and due to its rich vitamin composition, balsamic sauce is used as a vitamin supplement to the diet of those who want to lose weight. Due to its antiseptic properties, balsamico is used in medications that accelerate wound healing and body regeneration.

Balsamico is used as an effective remedy to help cope with cellulite.

• Expensive varieties of elite balsamic vinegar are used in cosmetology, using it to produce expensive lotions, gels, creams and other hair and skin care products.
