Our Favorite dressing: Take a few tbsp. of any of the sweet vinegars
and blend with 1 tsp creamy blue cheese dressing for a creamy sweet taste.
The Italian blend with a little olive oil and top salad for a no calorie dressing.

Marinade: Take any meat (Chicken and pork are our favorites)
and pour 1/2 to a full bottle of sweet vinegar over.
Cover and refrigerate overnight preferably.
You can BBQ or bake the meat as directed.
Take the excess juice and marinade and put in saucepan. Cook down
until thick. Be careful not to overcook.
Use this sauce as a baste for the meat or drizzle over
the cooked meat before serving.

Veggies and vinegar:
1lb fresh veggies
1 med onion
2 tbsp butter or oil
2-3 tbsp sweet or savory vinegar

Melt butter in saucepan with diced onions and cover.
Let steam gently for 5-10 minutes or until transparent.
Boil salted water and put your favorite veggies cut up to boil
for 10-15 minutes until tender. Drain and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking. Combine the onions, vinegar, and salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot. Serves 4

Italian Vinegar: This vinegar is great as a flavoring for just about everything. Pasta, sandwiches, salads are some of the things we use this for.
It's great for dieting. Use your creativity!!
