How do I Separate Water From Vinegar?
Separating water from vinegar results in a reduction prized by many cooks. Through boiling vinegar, water evaporates and leaves a concentrate of the acidic liquid. Balsamic vinegar reduction is the most well-known boiled-down vinegar, and is a common oil to dip bread in. Since the concentrate is quite strong, use it sparingly following separation. With a couple tools and a well-ventilated kitchen, you can separate water from vinegar in a few hours.
