There is one thing that apricot vinegar does for sure and that is surprise! This vinegar made from fresh apricots tastes sweetly fruity and slightly sour at the same time. That is why it harmonizes so well with nutty oils like walnut oil or grape seed oil on leafy salads. Due to its mild sweetness apricot vinegar lends fruit salads and other fruity desserts a refreshing component. Only a few drops of this vinegar transform a simple dessert into an extraordinary creation. Tip: Conjure up an individual aperitif by adding a couple of teaspoonfuls of apricot vinegar to sparkling wine.
