Am sharing to everyone how I made my homemade vinegar from raisins. Searched online about it and started making this a couple year ago. It was easy to make, the only hard part was the ” Distillation ” part. Experimented once and I was happy with the outcome, I been consuming it until now, and I still have some!..
I used the homemade vinegar in making salad dressings, making dipping sauces and more. Am one of the person who loves vinegar tastes.
