I've never heard of Vinegar pie. Man it sounds awful. But I do love Lemon pie. I might have to try this.
Charles - let me know what it's like.
I'm actually cooking one at the moment - it smells okay actually.
Don't knock what you haven't tried I'm told but I may have to pass on Vinegar Pie.
David - I'm waiting for Anon's report before I get the pan out.
There is a country song about the girls getting prettier at closing time when they all begain to look like movie stars. Maybe after the pioneers had plodded along for weeks behind wagon and oxen the same can be said for any dessert.
In my case I must not have been deprived of dessert for a long enough time as this recipe was the culinary equivalent of "god awful."
I noticed other vinegar pie recipes only called for 1-3 tablespoons of vinegar while this one was 1/2 cup. It was over whelming!
Vinegar is suppose to surpress your appetite and lower cholesterol. I'm not sure about the latter but it sure killed my appetite.
It would have been cheaper and quicker to eat the pie crust with one hand and swig straight from the bottle of vinegar with the other.
Yuck!
