What is white vinegar made of?

The main raw materials for brewing white vinegar are simple: barley and water. Some are mixed with a little wheat and corn. First, wash the barley, and then soak it in well water for one night. The next day, put the soaked barley in a pot with water and cook it over high fire. When it is cooked to a certain extent, it is necessary to turn it once and change the water. Pick up the barley and drain it. Change the pot to clean water, less than the first time. Put the drained barley into a pot and cook it. Just pour the top layer into the bottom of the pot, which is placed on the top layer. This can prevent barley from being cooked to varying degrees and ensure that a pot of wheat is cooked thoroughly. It is very important to master the temperature in this process. When the water in the pot is almost dry, it is necessary to remove the open flame and leave only a little charcoal fire. When the moisture of barley is almost dry, and the barley at the bottom of the pot turns yellow slightly, it is time to turn off the fire. Barley was poured into the dustpan one by one, and all the rooms became hazy. When the wheat in the dustpan is still warm, you can mix it. After the koji is mixed well, put the barley into a big bamboo basket for fermentation. Around the bamboo pole, cover it tightly with some linen and cotton. Barley is fermented in a bamboo basket for two days, and then slowly fermented in a crock. Fermentation time varies with seasons. Generally, it takes half a month in warm spring and summer and one month in cold autumn and winter. During fermentation, it should be turned once a day, from one tank to another, with different speeds. During this period, it is necessary to observe whether the barley fermentation is normal, and the barley with normal fermentation feels cold. If it is hot, it means that this bottle of barley has gone bad and can't be used any more. Another observation method is to smell that normal fermented barley has a faint scent of sour taste, while deteriorated barley is sour and smelly. Barley should not be stained with oil and salt from cooking to fermentation, otherwise it will be sour. After barley is fermented, you can add water to the tank and then filter the water out, which is white vinegar. The color of white vinegar looks a little yellowish, probably because it is lighter than other sour vinegar, so it is called white vinegar. Usually, two glasses of water can be added to a can of wheat. The first glass of water is the first cup of vinegar, which is sour and the second cup is weak. You can choose according to your own taste when eating. What's the difference between white vinegar and ordinary vinegar? Does white vinegar have any medicinal value? Vinegar, also known as vinegar, is an acidic condiment containing acetic acid. Vinegars include rice vinegar, aged vinegar, fragrant vinegar, bran vinegar, wine vinegar, white vinegar, various fruit juice vinegar, garlic juice vinegar, ginger juice vinegar, health care vinegar and so on. Because of the different raw materials and manufacturing methods, the taste of the finished product is different. Vinegar is a kind of acid condiment which is widely used. The content of acetic acid in 100mL vinegar is above 3.5g in general vinegar and above 5g in excellent vinegar. Because vinegar can improve and regulate human metabolism, it is in increasing demand as a dietary condiment.

Nowadays, broken rice, corn, sweet potato, dried sweet potato, potato and dried potato are used as substitutes. Raw materials are cooked, gelatinized, liquefied and saccharified to convert starch into sugar, then ethanol is produced by yeast fermentation, and then ethanol is oxidized by acetic acid bacteria to produce acetic acid.

Vinegar is made from raw materials containing sugar, such as grapes, apples, pears, peaches, persimmons, dates and tomatoes, or honey and molasses. They all only need to go through two biochemical stages: ethanol fermentation and acetic acid fermentation.

Using ethanol as raw material, acetic acid bacteria only use acetic acid to ferment for one biochemical stage. For example, it takes only 1 ~ 3 days to brew wine vinegar with low-alcohol liquor or edible alcohol diluted with water as raw materials by rapid brewing method.

Edit the origin of vinegar in this paragraph.

It is said that a man named Du Kang invented wine in Yuncheng area. His son Heita also learned wine-making technology from Du Kang. Later, Heita led the clan to move to Zhenjiang, Jiangsu. There, they felt it was a pity to throw away the distiller's grains after brewing, so they stored them and soaked them in jars. On 2 1, as soon as I opened the jar, a smell that I had never smelled before came to my nose. Under the temptation of rich fragrance, Heita tasted it, which was sweet and sour, so it was stored as a "sauce". What is the name of this sauce? Heita named this sour water "vinegar" and added the word "one" to the number 2 1. It is said that until today, the time limit for brewing a batch of vinegar in Zhenjiang Hengshun Sauce and Vinegar Factory is still 2 1 day.
