Persimmon vinegar is a vinegar made from fermented Oriental persimmon. Called gam-sikcho (감식초) in Korean, it is a traditional condiment, food ingredient, and beverage base in Korean cuisine.[1][2][3][4]
Persimmon vinegar is reported to help reduce liver cholesterol and prevent metabolic disorders induced by chronic alcohol intake.[5][6]
Persimmon vinegar made with 'meoksi' persimmons, a native Korean variety with small, very sweet fruits with high tannin content, was included in the Ark of Taste catalogue of heritage foods in 2014.[7]
