Look at that face. Gotta love him. Such a great smile. I have been taking Dr. Weil's advice on many things through the years. He combines traditional medicine with holistic--an alternative medicine. Just wanna hug him!
I ran across this recipe while at his site today. The combination of the ingredients have gotta be great for your system & a zinger for any little thing you wanna cook up! I'm going to add this to my staple condiments list (pepper & garlic powder).
Cyclone Cider Deluxe (Vinegar) |
| Description |
| This healing tonic is a variation on an old favorite among herbalists, serving as both a syrup and as a very interesting addition to soups, stews, salad dressings and marinades. Make it 2-4 weeks ahead so the vinegar can steep. |
| Ingredients |
| 1/4 cup grated fresh ginger root 1/4 cup chopped onion 1/4 cup fresh rosemary leaves 1/8 cup fresh sage leaves 1/8 cup grated fresh horseradish 4 slices fresh organic lemon 4 slices fresh organic orange 4-6 fresh peeled garlic cloves 2-4 cayenne peppers Apple cider vinegar Honey or maple syrup |
| Instructions |
| 1. Place all herbs, fruits and vegetables into a wide-mouthed jar. Cover with 2-3 times as much apple cider vinegar. 2. Place plastic wrap over jar and then secure tightly with a lid. Shake daily for 2-4 weeks. Store at room temperature out of direct heat and light. 3. Strain, squeezing all liquid possible out of the herbs. 4. Discard herbs and rebottle the vinegar. Add honey to taste, enough to make a syrupy consistency (roughly equal parts vinegar and honey). To use: Take 1-2 tablespoons as needed, or add to soups, sauces, marinades or dressings. |
