What it is

Vinegar salt is a mixture of vinegar and salt. Vinegar is a liquid made from the fermentation of ethanol by acetic acid bacteria. Salt, or sodium chloride, is a mineral compound.

Why it's used

Vinegar salt is used to add a salty and acidic flavor to foods. It can also act as a preservative by lowering the pH of food products. It is commonly found in pickles, relishes, sauces, and condiments.

Health notes

Vinegar salt is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. The acetic acid in vinegar can affect blood sugar levels, but typical amounts in food are unlikely to cause significant health effects. JECFA has evaluated acetic acid and sodium chloride separately, with no numeric limits set for acetic acid's acceptable daily intake. Evidence on potential health benefits or risks of vinegar consumption is mixed and often related to high-dose supplements rather than food use.

Allergen info

Vinegar salt is not derived from any of the nine major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
