Uses of Vinegar
Vinegar is widely used to make pickles. Pickles are something that adds a piquant flavour to your meals. Their spicy and tangy taste add more flavours to food and are, broadly, used almost in every kitchen. They can be made at home or you can easily grab them from any supermarket. No doubt, they’re very easy to made and give wonderful taste but the major task is to preserve them for a long period of time, for this purpose Vinegar helps a lot.
Additionally, Vinegar can be used to clean up household commodities quite well. It is also used most commonly to clean up the Veggies to free it up from several unwanted microorganisms because of its acidic nature which helps keep them away.
Why is Vinegar used?
1. Its Sour Taste
Vinegar is used in pickling to provide a tangy and sour taste to the desired stuff. Some people liked to have pickles to add some sour and stingy taste in their meals. For this purpose, they add some other salty and sour ingredients along with Vinegar because vinegar itself is very stingy in taste and it also preserves foods, vegetables, pickles etc.
2. Its Preservative Nature
Pickles are something that needs to be preserved for a long period of time. Pickling is a time taking process and in order to preserve them, we use vinegar, because it is the best technique for this procedure. As vinegar is acidic in nature so it prevents several microorganisms from growing and its pH maintain the temperature, needed, as well as stingy taste in pickles.
