I love vinegar, it’s a staple ingredient for me. I use it for pickling, adding to foods, and adding a splash of it to my drinks.
I had more ripe persimmons than I could finish in time. I didn’t want them to go to waste. So I decided to make some homemade persimmon vinegar 🧡
Making vinegar is super simple. It only requires one ingredient—the fruit itself! All is takes is consistent daily stirring. And in a couple weeks you will have vinegar! You can use fruits or fruit scraps like the skins.
To make vinegar, it first needs to become alcohol – so the sugar is there so that the yeasts on the persimmon can consume it, and then bacteria converts that alcohol to acetic acid, making a vinegar! Since these persimmons are so high in sugar content, I did not need to add anymore sugar. In some cases you do, in order for the yeasts to colonize your solution faster than mold spores could.
All I had to do was remove the stem and Calyx (the too part), then put them in the sterilized jar, stir them together, and cover with a cloth (in this case I used a double ply napkin). Then leave it in the dark place and stir everyday.
And that’s how vinegar gets made 🧡 I love how my love for craft intersects with science and zero waste processes. It helps me learn so much about sustainability!
