rice vinegar
Asian cooking acid
Rice vinegar is vinegar made from fermented rice, milder and sweeter than Western vinegars.
It's essential in East Asian cooking—sushi rice, dressings, pickles, dipping sauces.
Chinese, Japanese, and Korean varieties differ slightly in flavor and color.
Season the rice with rice vinegar and a little sugar.
