How to choose vinegar? Is the greater the acidity, the better?
The selection skills of vinegar are as follows, not the greater the acidity, the better:

1, choose "homemade". According to the current national standards, vinegar can be divided into fermented vinegar and prepared vinegar. No matter what kind of vinegar it is, it is safe as long as it meets the national standards. However, from the nutritional point of view, the brewed products have more health care effects, so consumers give priority to products with the words "fermented vinegar" and "carefully brewed" on the label.

2. Look at "total acid". "Total acid" represents the amount of acetic acid produced by vinegar during fermentation. For brewing vinegar, the higher the acidity, the higher the degree of fermentation and the better the quality. So when you buy it, you should look at the value of "total acid" in the label. But the acidity is not as high as possible, and it can also be improved by blending.
