Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Combine all ingredients in a medium-size saucepan. Bring to a boil. Adjust the heat, if needed, to maintain a steady vigorous boil and cook for 15 minutes.
  2. Using a potato masher, mash to cooked apples to release the juice.
  3. Allow the mixture to sit at least until cooled to room temperature. The consistency will thicken as the liquid cools. (You can let it sit as long as 6-8 hours to release more of the bright apple flavor.)
  4. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve, pushing on the apples with the back of a spoon to release as much of the liquid as possible. Continue pushing on the solids until all the liquid is pressed out.
  5. Bottle and enjoy!
  6. Your vinegar can be stored at room temperature for several days. For longer storage, refrigerate and bring back to room temperature before using.
  7. NOTE: If your cooled, strained vinegar is not as thick as you'd like, simply return it to a pot, bring it to a boil and boil for another 5-10 minutes. If it's a little thicker than you prefer, bring it back to a boil, and whisk in a little more balsamic or water until it's nice and smooth.

Notes

  • See Café Tips above in the post for more detailed instructions and tips to ensure success.
  • If you prefer to use Metric measurements there is a button in each of our recipes, right above the word “Instructions”. Just click that button to toggle to grams, milliliters, etc. If you ever come across one of our recipes that doesn’t have the Metric conversion (some of the older recipes may not), feel free to leave a comment and I will add it.
  • This recipe yields approximately 2 cups of vinegar, depending on how thick you like it.
