Apple Cider Vinegar
Apple Cider Vinegar has a lot of health benefits. Some of the benefits are: reduce sinus infections and sore throats, balance high cholesterol, cure skin conditions such as acne, protect against food poisoning, fight allergies in both humans and animals, prevent muscle fatigue after exercise, strengthen the immune system, increase stamina, increase metabolism which promotes weight loss, improve digestion and cure constipation, alleviate symptoms of arthritis and gout, and prevents bladder stones and urinary tract infections.
Here is the recipe for the salad dressing.
Ingredients:
1 tablespoon finely minced shallot
1 teaspoon dry mustard
¼ teaspoon dry granulated garlic
¼ cup raw unfiltered apple cider vinegar
¾ cup extra virgin olive oil
sea salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
Directions:
Put the shallot, mustard, salt, pepper and vinegar or brine in a small mixing bowl and whisk thoroughly. Add olive oil and whisk until emulsified. Taste and adjust seasonings as you like. This is best when made fresh, but it can be made up to one day in advance, and kept in the fridge in a small airtight container. Let it sit at room temp for one hour if it has been in the fridge.
