==== Vinegars ==== ''Husrum'', also known as ''[[verjuice]]'', is a type of vinegar made from sour grapes in the Middle East. It is produced by crushing unripened grapes, collecting and salting the juice, simmering it to remove foam, and then storing it with a layer of olive oil to prevent contamination and oxidation. It is then used as an acidic ingredient in salads and stuffed vegetables.<ref>Cosme, F., Pinto, T., & Vilela, A. (2018).
