Would it be suitable for using when making chutney?

Don't see why not

Definitely use in chutney. +
I also put a splash in a beef stew/curry - it helps tenderise the meat.

I use it for pickled eggs

Hi,
Anyone got any uses for the left behind vinegar from pickled things ?
Would it serve well to make a dressing with ? Any other ideas ?
Thanks:rotfl: :rotfl:

I've just reused the spiced vinegar from my favourite brand of pickled shallots like this - I sliced some cucumber fairly thickly and packed it into the pickle jar (liquid still in) with some slices of onion. I shall leave it a couple of weeks and then use in cheese or corned beef sandwiches.

I pour the vinegar over thick cut, homemade chips :drool::drool:

I know it's not a recipe, but it's delicious.

I have some 3 year out of date vinegar (for pickling or table use apparently) it smells really odd

So before I chuck it, what could I use it for?
