“Vinegar is easy—it nearly happens without any work at all,” Cleveland chef Jonathon Sawyer writes in House of Vinegar.

Ingredients

8 oz prosciutto 1 quart cold water 1 cup best-quality single-malt Scotch

How to make it

In a large saucepan over medium heat, combine prosciutto and water. Simmer for 10 minutes. Strain and discard prosciutto. Place stock, uncovered, in refrigerator to cool. Once cooled, stock will have a solid layer of fat on top. Remove fat and discard it. In a large bowl, combine stock and Scotch, stirring to mix. Evenly divide mixture among 1-quart glass containers. Cover with cheesecloth, securing it with a rubber band, to keep out debris. Place containers in a cool, dry, dark place. After 3 to 6 weeks, taste: it should be sharp, tangy, and sour. Or test by using pH strips—shoot for a reading of 4 or below on the pH scale.
