I was inspired to create an infused vinegar based on apple pie flavors. Apple cider vinegar provides the vinegar base and the apple notes. For a slightly spicy hint, I’ve also added black pepper and ginger, and rounded it off with lemon peel for a citrusy finish.

Ingredients

  • 250 millilitres apple cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon cloves
  • 3 star anise
  • 1 stick cinnamon
  • 0.5 teaspoons nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon cardamom pods
  • 1 teaspoon black peppercorn
  • 3 piece ginger
  • 1 lemon

      After two weeks, strain the infused vinegar into a clean bottle through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth to remove solids. Store in a cool place; your fridge is ideal.
