Do you have a recipe to make apple cider vinegar powder? I purchased a bag of maltodextrin powder from MP and haven’t used it. I’d like to make my own, also worcestershire powder too. It would be awesome if I could get a little help. Also how do you store it. Thanks.

It is not really possible to make apple cider vinegar powder in a regular kitchen as the process that sprays the vinegar onto maltodextrin requires specialized commercial equipment.
