Dan­de­lion (aka dandy) vine­gar is my favorite vine­gar to make.  Dan­de­lion root is a supreme liver tonic.  It acts to alka­lize the body and nour­ish the blood.  When com­bined with vine­gar which has a neu­tral pH it is a great tonic for the blood as well.  A diet heavy with meat, car­bo­hy­drates, sugar, processed foods and fat will cre­ate an acidic envi­ron­ment within the body which is a prime envi­ron­ment for inflam­ma­tion, bac­te­ria and can­cer cells to thrive in.  The more alka­line you make your diet the harder it is for dis­ease to thrive in the body.  Reg­u­lar serv­ings of dan­de­lion vine­gar in your diet will pro­mote health on a fun­da­men­tal level for your body.  Here is a great way to get the ben­e­fits from dan­de­lion year round.

Dandy vine­gar has been a sta­ple in our pantry for many years.  Recently I real­ized we were out of my favorite salad treat.
