Ingredients

  • Apple scraps of cores and skins
  • Raw apple cider vinegar, optional

Instructions

  • Step 1: save all those apple scraps!
  • Step 2: shove them into a glass jar.
  • Step 3: pour non-chlorinated water over the scraps. Optional: add 1 TBL raw apple cider vinegar (from the store) to each quart-size jar to give it a jump start.
  • Step 4: cover jars with a cloth (tea towel, cheesecloth, coffee filter all work well) and patiently wait. Usually around 3 weeks your batch of raw apple cider vinegar is ready to store, depending on how warm your kitchen is. Simply store in your pantry just like any other vinegar.
  • Congratulations! You've just entered the crunchy ranks of a homesteader. Hey, I say as long as you look good doin' it, it's all good. ;)
