PLEASE NOTE... NOT TO USE VINEGAR ON YOUR GRANITE COUNTERS!!! Vinegar is too acidic & will etch the granite counter tops & dull & weaken the sealant. Just use soap and water & hydrogen peroxide to disinfect. I love this recipe... been using it for several years & absolutely love it... use it on my kitchen sinks, bathrooms & even mopping in my bathroom as I have glass tiles! 👌 A great recipe💖💖

@mistywoodendurance8529 3 года назад

In the Middle ages, servants would clean their work tables every day with a mix of vinegar, salt, and rosemary. And they would use cut lemons dipped in salt to scrub pots and pans. So this is getting back to basics in a big way.

@@AcreHomestead You were wondering what else can you do with your lemon peels and I have a few suggestions: 1) If you're buying lemon with edible, non treated (not vaxed) zest you can freeze the lemon peel and grate it frozen when you need it. 2) Becides putting fresh grated or peeled zest it in sweets (doughs and creams) which we all know, you can also use it in your salty recepies since lemon zest is a natural msg and personally I started out by adding half a lemon zest instead of lemon juice in some of my recepies and see how that tastes since you can always adjust it somehow and never completely ruin... I even started thinking that in some dishes you need zest instead of juice or just very little juice becouse the zest can really give that umami twist aspecially to some veggies! 3) If you have those "greasy" and full of esential oil lemon peels that when you pick them up and then pose them, the lemon smell just sticks with your fingers, well those kind of lemons the italians use for for the making of limoncello which is a sweet liquor (like cherry but with lemons) belonging to the category of italian digestives that they sometimes have at the end of a rich meal but only after an espresso espresso first... it's a little very sweet lemon shot 🤣 of 40% alcohol that is always kept in a freezer, but it's awesome and it does help you digest! 4) You can also use half a lemon peel as a dishwasher deodorant: you just put it in the cutlery basket and you can leave it there for a couple of washes or that is when the smell is washed out! 5) When I was looking for vanilla extract recepie, I ran into lemon extract recepies aswell.

It's made me much more skeptical than I used to be.

@niktarinalife9708 3 года назад

Hi Becky! I too make this with squeezed lemons, BUT: before I squeeze them, I grate the peel of und put this in a jar with sugar in den fridge. Then I squeeze the zested lemons and what is then left I put in vinegar. so: 3 products out of 1 lemon. The peel from - in my case all organic - lemons is way too good for making cleaner with it. The lemon cest (or orange cest) sugar I use for baking, for cocktails, for cooking and so on. Sugar too is a preservative and kept in the fridge it stores some months.

@thornhedge9639 3 года назад

Great stuff. Incidentally; if you throw those peals into the same container with rain water and a handful of organic raisins it will make it's own vinegar in a few weeks. Then it really will be zero dollar cleaner. I made juniper vinegar for cleaning and OMG, it smells great and cost me absolutely nothing! Apple peals, melon rinds, virtually anything with sugar can be fermented to make vinegar. Always enjoy your videos; thank you!

@merylrose9406 3 года назад

I make my own too, but I think vinegar is too caustic. I use rubbing alcohol (1 to 1 with water) with a few drops of essential oils for my stone counters and floors, but not for wood. I have been using it for 25 years and there is no etching or dulling of the stone. Alcohol is PH neutral, which is important. I do not use this on wood or metal, though as the alcohol can damage the finish on these. Hope this helps!

I've been making that solution for over a year now and I love it. Rain Country Has many videos on how to actually make the vinegar which saves even more money.

@janetspangler1 3 года назад

You’ve been quite an inspiration to me! I make my lemon vinegar a little different than you do. I got the information from a RU-vid channel called Rain country. I just take the lemons after I’ve juiced them, put them in a jar, add some sugar and fill it with water and cover it loosely like you would something you’re fermenting so it can breathe. Every day you stir it and in about one month it will be vinegar. Just drain and use. Then you don’t even have to buy the white vinegar. I also have learned from her that you can make vinegar out of anything! I really enjoy doing it. Floral vinegars for hair rinse, citrus vinegar’s for cleaning, even made some vinegar out of cedar branches off of a tree. Lotta fun and very frugal! Thank you so much for all you share! You have so inspired me to do large amounts of cooking so I can continue doing something besides just cooking!

@refinerycbr4457 3 года назад

I started doing this - big jar on the kitchen counter for all the citrus skins etc. As I was decanting into my cleaning jars a bit splashed on my hand. Unthinkingly I licked it and damn, it tasted so good. Now we use some for our salad dressings and the rest for cleaning non-porous surfaces.

I use vinegar in my washing machine instead of fabric softener. I just whack a glug of it in the fabric softener drawer. Probably about 1/4 cup I guess, but I don’t measure it. Yes I can smell a bit of vinegar when I first pull it out, but once it’s dry I can’t smell a thing. Some people put drops of essential oils in with it but I don’t bother. I like my clothes to smell fresh and clean, not scented.

When I make candied lemon peel, the first step is to boil the peels to reduce bitterness, at least once but sometimes more times, before boiling in sugar syrup.

@rebeccacron8614 3 года назад

You can make lemon extract very similar to how you make your own vanilla extract. Just take a veggie peeler to peel off the very top layer of the peel before you juice the lemons. Drop the peel into a jar of vodka and let it sit for several months. You can use it anywhere you would use lemon zest - marinades, salad dressings, baked goods, home cleaners, etc. You can also add sugar to make your own limoncello for cocktails! The very outer layer of the peel is where all the lemon oil is.

Hi Becky Your new home is just going to be beautiful. My suggestion is to put your canning kitchen in your walk out basement.

Josh's shop can go in the garage a much bigger space and he can always drive the tractor into his shop when it needs any repairs, convenient. Just my thoughts lol. Congrats to you both on your new home.

@sloaneperry1938 3 года назад

I just want to share a little tip with you. I watched your chicken broth video and made some, too. In the video, you put a little sieve in your wide mouth funnel. The tip I have for you is that, instead of using that little sieve, you should use one of those reusable coffee filters that has like a mesh all around the sides and the bottom, too. It's important not to get the one that has a fully plastic bottom because it diminished the mesh's surface contact and kinda retains some liquid. However, with the one with the mesh bottom, the liquid passes more freely. The reason I suggest the reusable all-mesh coffee filter is because the mesh's holes are even tinier than the sieve you used and it also prevents the "desintegrated" onion/veggies from getting into your Mason jar, and which allows for a clearer/purer broth. I put the all-mesh coffee filter in my wide mouth funnel and rinsed it under the faucet every time I needed to. Now, seeing this citrus cleaner video, I think this trick might also help for the same reasons. Have a great day.

I do something similar, but I add some lectric soda (washing soda) and a squirt of liquid dish soap (Dr Bronners works well) to my mix. I also skip the jars and put the peel straight into a half full vinegar bottle (and top up when necessary). I tend to make a huge batch once a year (the amount is based on how much vinegar I've accrued through the year) and then let the vinegar bottles sit until I'm ready to make another batch. Ingredients 1.5 litre water (1 cup boiled) 300ml citrus soaked vinegar 60ml dishwashing liquid 3 dessertspoons Lectric Washing Soda Method Mix Lectric Soda with about 1 cup boiling water to dissolve, then add other ingredients. PS: white vinegar is great instead of fabric softener in the washing machine and same in place of rinse aid in the dishwasher!

What a great idea! The lemon scented cleaning sprays are my girlfriends favorite, I can't wait to show her this trick so we can make our own endless cleaner. 😊
