I built this cold tuna luncheon salad on a base of sour cream, mixed with green apple and green vegetables. I made Smetana sour cream , which is creamier, worth making at home when you have time, otherwise store bought fresh sour cream works well too.More refreshing than mayonaise based salads. Make small portions, spoils quickly.#GlobalApron

Unripe grapes are sour and make a very special mild vinegar substitute called verjus.The bottom grapes on a cluster of red or white grapes are the last to ripen, and one and the same cluster quite often holds sweet grapes on top and sour grapes on the bottom.You can press these sour grapes into grape juice. You can make a wonderful vinegar substitute with this tart, sour, grape juice. We use it to make Dijon mustard.To buy sour grapes in the store, taste the bottom grape, buy the cluster, and separate the sour grapes from the sweet ones, usually a dozen or so. You can also ask your friendly farmers market seller to bring you 2 pounds of unripe grapes to make a pint of verjus.
