Hi C-H's, Catching up with my email after the holiday I noticed a thread about diminishing the flavor of vinegar in hot sauces. The simplest way to do this would be to drop a piece of limestone (calcium and magnesium carbonates) into the sauce bottle. It will slowly reduce the acidity of the sauce by reacting with the vinegar. I also noticed this rather dangerous suggestion: >And drinking HCL is a very good remedy when you have trouble with stomach >acid... but you have to dilute it first... So to counteract excess hydrochloric acid in your stomach you drink hydrochloric acid? I don't think so. --- Regards, Cameron.
