Flavoured vinegars are great in salad dressings but can be pricey to buy. Fortunately they are easy to make but takes some preparation. Below I have listed recipes for Raspberry/Blueberry Vinegar, Sage Red Wine Vinegar and Thyme Basil Vinegar
Raspberry/Blueberry Vinegar
1/2 cup mashed raspberries
1/2 cup mashed blueberries
White vinegar to fill a jar
Add fruit to jar and fill with vinegar. Cork and let stand for at least 1 week. Strain and use on salads or as a marinade. Can be sweetened by adding stevia to the finished vinegar.
Sage Red Wine Vinegar
1 large stalk of fresh sage leaves
2 cloves garlic
red wine vinegar to fill a jar.
Place sage and garlic in a jar. Fill with red wine vinegar. Cork tightly and place in the refrigerator for 4 weeks. Use as a marinade or salad dressing.
Thyme/Basil Vinegar
several stalks of thyme
several stalks of basil
1 tsp of lemon pepper seasoning
white vinegar to fill a jar.
Place herbs and seasoning in a jar. Fill with white vinegar. Let stand in a refrigerator for 4 weeks. Makes a good marinade or salad dressing. Instead of lemon pepper seasoning 4 or 5 peppercorns can be added
