Anyone got an advice on where to find cheap pickling vinegar, I'm pickling onion and beetroot when they are ready to be pulled up.

Many thanks.

    We got a cheap lot from a market stall, Ellsey's Dark Spiced Non-Brewed Condiment 5 Litres. Can't remember what it cost but it was a lot cheaper than Sarsons. Hubby might remember, I'll ask him when he comes in.

    I just use cheapo malt vinegar and have done for years

    I have used the Sarson's as well when it is on offer [more for the jar than the vinegar]

    Can't say I noticed any difference TBH

    Just asked hubby and he said it was either £1.30 or £2.30 can't believe it was that cheap but he's usually right. lol

    you can use non brewed condiment with some pickling spices

    google for recipes
