RED WINE VINEGAR MARINADE

Steps:

• Mix marinade ingredients.
• Pour marinade in a heavy-duty seal-able plastic bag or a glass dish. Select dishes in which the foods will fit snugly but lie flat.
• Turn food occasionally during marinating so that all sides are equally exposed to the marinade. Marinate at least 30 minute but remember the longer time marinading the more tender and favorable the meat.
• Grill or cook food.

Steps:

• Place the water, vinegar, pepper, salt, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, and melted margarine into a large, resealable plastic bag. Shake to combine ingredients, then add chicken, seal, and shake to coat. Place in refrigerator to marinate at least 4 hours.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat, and lightly oil grate. Remove chicken from marinade, and shake off excess. Discard remaining marinade.
• Cook on preheated grill until no longer pink in the center; about 10 minutes per side.

ELDERBERRY VINEGAR

Steps:

• Rinse elderberries and pick out dirt, stems or dried out berries.
• Place berries in large bowl and mash them.
• Pour vinegar over and allow to stand 24 - 36 hours, covered with a clean tea towel or cheesecloth.
• Strain through cheesecloth. Allow to drain slowly for up to 24 hours (if you press on the fruit while it is draining the vinegar will be cloudy).
• Pour juice into a non-reactive stockpot or preserving pan (a stainless steel saucepan will do). Stir in the sugar, bring to a boil, adjust heat, simmer for about 15 minutes. Watch carefully as juice reaches the boiling point - it can boil over very quickly!
• Let cool slightly, pour into clean bottles with corks, label and store in a dark, cool place.
