Vinegar
Vinegar is a sour-tasting liquid containing acetic acid, obtained by fermenting dilute alcoholic liquids, typically wine, cider, or beer, and used as a condiment or for pickling. Vinegar uses also in cooking for example; Improve the flavour of boiled ham by adding 1 tablespoon vinegar to the cooking water. The acid content and tangy flavor of vinegar makes it an excellent ingredient in a marinade for meat, poultry, fish, salads or vegetables. Vinegar can also tenderize tough cuts of meat.

Specialty vinegars make up a category of vinegar products that are formulated or flavoured to provide a special or unusual taste when added to foods. Specialty vinegars are favourites in the gourmet market.
Herbal vinegars: Wine or white distilled vinegars are sometimes flavoured with the addition of herbs, spices or other seasonings. Popular flavourings are garlic, basil and tarragon – but cinnamon, clove and nutmeg flavoured vinegars can be a tasty and aromatic addition to dressings.
Fruit vinegars: Fruit or fruit juice can also be infused with wine or white vinegar. Raspberry flavored vinegars, for example, create a sweetened vinegar with a sweet-sour taste.
