Rice vinegar
- BREF : Substituting rice vinegar for western style vinegar isnt really appropriate, it's too acidic.
+ BREF : Rice vinegar is made by fermenting rice, and is often used as a dressing or as seasoning.
+ LONG
+ & Rice vinegar comes in a variety of flavors and color, ranging from clear to red, brown and black. The Chinese varieties are stronger, and known as 'rice wine vinegars' while Japanese vinegars are less acidic.
+Japanese rice vinegar
+ BREF : Japanese Rice vinegar "komezu" or simply "su" has a very mild taste, and is either colorless or yellow. Japanese rice vinegar is made from rice.
+ LONG
+ & This type of vinegar is less acidic than Chinese varieties, and are used to season rice, and for making "sunomono" (vinegar dishes) and "tsukemono" (pickles). There are some kinds of Japanese rice vinegars that are 'seasoned', meaning that they have additives like {{sake}}, {{salt}} and {{sugar}}, for added flavor.
Balsamic vinegar
COLOR : #6620B3
+ BREF : Balsamic vinegar, or {*aceto balsamico*} is a dark, concentrated, flavoured vinegar from Italy. It is made wholly, or in part from grape must. True balsamic vinegar is rich with a complex flavor that is both sweet and sour.
+ LONG
+ & The name "aceto balsamico" isn't regulated, but there are 3 in existence that are: Aceto Balsamic Tradizionale di Modena, Aceto Balsamico Tradizionale di Reggio Emilia and Aceto Balsamico di Modena. The two traditional varieties are made from a reduction of pressed Trebbiano and Lambrusco grapes that are aged for many years in wooden barrels (for a minimum of 12yrs), produced exclusively in the province of Modena or the Emilia region around it. Aceto Balsamico di Modena is also made from grape must, but it is blended with wine vinegar, and imitates the traditional product.
Apple cider vinegar
- BREF : It is thought that consuming vinegar between meals will help to make you feel full for longer.
+ BREF : Apple cider vinegar is made from fermented apple juice, it is used for food preservation, marinades, vinaigrettes salad dressings. It has a sour taste, and can be used to make homemade cleaning products.
+ LONG
+ & ACV is made from crushing apples and extracting the juice, bacteria and yeast are then aded to kickstart the fermentation process which converts the sugars into alcohol. There is a second fermentation, which then turns the alcohol into vinegar by acetic acid-forming bacteria. It can be used as a leavening agent in recipes, when mixed with baking soda, creating a chemical reaction which produces carbon dioxide which helps lift the batter.
