Addressing our favourite dressing: Apple Cider Vinegar

At GENNY GRAHAM we use Organic Cider Vinegar, as one of the ingredients in our own Award Winning pepper jellies. It’s a win win! It is made from organically cider apples that are crushed and allowed to ferment naturally over approximately 2-4 weeks, then bottled as an unpasteurised finished product. Apple cider vinegar when abbreviated is also known as ACV.

Although our products so far are not fully organic, we have selected organic cider vinegar because it is free from synthetic chemicals, and made from all natural ingredients. As an organic product, it is higher in nutritional value than a heavily processed vinegar.

While mainly made up of acetic acid and citric acid, it is well known that apple cider vinegar has many health benefits. Scientific evidence has proved that it helps to reduce high cholesterol and high blood pressure, it can help relieve indigestion, aid in detoxifying the body and aid weight loss. It has also been attributed to helping in the prevention of cancer, so you can conclude that by using our products, some of those health benefits may be imparted to you. We can benefit from the magnesium, iron, phosphorus, manganese, amino acids, and antoxidants, that help to make up this powerful ingredient, and the wonderful thing is that it is suitable for coeliacs, vegetarians and vegans.

As one of the very important components in our pepper jellies, you can have confidence that the slightly cloudy vinegar we have selected is of superb quality. It has a clean, crisp taste and supports the character of other ingredients. The presence of the organic cider vinegar in our pepper jellies is one of the reasons why they make great marinades and salad dressings.
