CRISP OF THE DAY

Co-op Sea Salt & Chardonnay Wine Vinegar
I feel I have somehow inadvertently provoked the ire of the salt & vinegar brigade.
It’s not that I don’t like that particular flavour, I just feel that there can be more nuances found in cheese & onion’s varieties.
Brands and companies attempt to jazz up salt & vinegar. Balsamic, malt, cider and in this case Chardonnay wine vinegar are often touted. This is frequently to no avail.
I am happy to say that these guys definitely have a defined white wine vinegar punch and that is pushed very much to the forefront.
These are lovely unaccompanied but also, twin pleasingly with a claggy dip such as a flavoured hummus, as the sharpness cuts through beautifully.
They have a pleasant crunch and the zest lingers satisfyingly.
I would highly recommend these to my S&V pals, though I am aware of the possible occhiolism of my judgement here.
