Hi,

Does anyone here use Rice Vinegar? I just got a bottle of it and am
not really sure what to do with it. Thanks!

What damn nonsense are you talking about?!!!

Rice wine vinegar is made from rice wine (the wine made from the
fermentation of the broken starches and complex sugars,) then converted
into vinegar using a mother.

I mostly use mine to make sushi rice, along with sugar and
salt. It's fairly mild, so it would probably work in salad dressings,
too. In Japanese cuisine, rice vinegar also gets used in sunomono,
various types of vinegared salads.

This is the brand of rice wine vinegar I get at my supermarket:

And a google search for "rice wine vinegar" will get several hits. If
that's not what it is, there are several products that go by that
name.

I suggest you taste it and compare it to other vinegars and see what
you think. I bought it for sushi, but have learned to prefer it for
cole slaw, which I make without mayo.

Use it when you want a milder vinegar. I use it on fresh tomato salad and
fresh cucumber salad. Also, use it to make sushi rice and other asian
dishes, like sauces and marinades.

vinegar


[VIHN-ih-ger]
Derived from the French vin aigre , "sour wine," vinegar is made by
bacterial activity thats converts fermented liquids such as wine, beer or
cider into a weak solution of ACETIC ACID (the constituent that makes it
sour). Vinegar has been used for centuries for everything from beverages
(like SHRUBS), to an odor-diminisher for strong foods such as cabbage and
onions, to a hair rinse and softener. There are a multitude of vinegar
varieties available today. In the United States, the most popular styles are
the fruity apple cider vinegar, made from fermented apple cider, and the
rather harsh-tasting distilled white vinegar, made from a grain-alcohol
mixture. The French prefer pleasantly pungent wine vinegars, which can be
made from either red or white wine. In Britain the favorite is mild malt
vinegar, obtained from malted barley. The exquisite Italian balsamic
vinegar, made from white Trebbiano grape juice, gets its dark color and
pungent sweetness from aging in barrels - of various woods and in graduating
sizes - over a period of years. It should be noted that many balsamic
vinegars contain SULFITES, which are primarily added to inhibit the growth
of unfavorable, flavor-detracting bacteria. Herb vinegars are made by
steeping fresh herbs such as dill and tarragon in vinegar. Popular fruit
vinegars include those made with raspberries and blueberries.

SEE BELOW!

Mild and slightly sweet rice vinegar, made from fermented rice, is widely
used in Japanese and Chinese cooking. It's a key element in dishes such as
SUSHI. Cane vinegar is made from sugarcane and has a rich, slightly sweet
flavor. Vinegar is essential in making pickles, mustards and VINAIGRETTES.
It adds a jolt of flavor to numerous sauces, MARINADES and dressings, and to
preparations such as SAUERBRATEN, SWEET-AND-SOUR dishes and marinated
HERRING. It's also widely used as a table CONDIMENT for dishes such as
England's FISH AND CHIPS. Vinegar should be stored airtight in a cool, dark
place. Unopened, it will keep indefinitely; once opened it can be stored for
about 6 months. See also MOTHER OF VINEGAR; SU.

There most certainly is "rice wine vinegar" but it is identical to rice
vinegar. I have a bottle so labeled in my pantry. The vinegar is made from
rice wine, much like red wine vinegar and similar western products. As you
said it is used in many dipping sauces. It is a mild vinegar and can be a
nice change for salads.

On the contrary - The next time he starts spewing information maybe, just
maybe he will check the information more carefully. Misconceptions are bad

Of course, by now you know you're wrong...

I use rice wine vinegar in making sushi. I add sugar and salt to the
(boiling) vinegar and add it to the cooked sushi rice to make "sticky
rice."

I also use the vinegar in stir-fry sauces.

Absolute answers like "There is no such thing as Rice Wine Vinegar" deserve
absolute replies.

If you consider that ruthless then you are entitled to your opinion.

It would be a lot more helpful if you would provide correction by presenting
the correct information. Calling names does no one any good, and it is
certainly the case that this group could use some more civility.

Peter you're way too civil, where's your sense of adventure?

Have some fun once in a while.

How many times have you swallowed the desire to call someone a dolt, a ditz,
an idiot, or even worse?

What the heck, after all Don Quixote tilted at windmills............. It's
good for the soul.

FYI - http://shop.store.yahoo.com/chefshop/ricwinvinjap1.html

Rice wine vinegar is an indispensable flavoring in many Asian foods, and has
recently become favored in non-traditional foods for its light touch and
mild sweetness. Khikyu-uma natural flavored vinegar is distilled from the
sweet, fermented residue of sake and rice and softened with water to a low
acidity. The result is a sweet but slightly tangy vinegar that will preserve
the delicate flavors it mingles with. Use it to expand your own repertoire,
whether in traditional or Asian-inspired salad dressings, marinades and
sauces, or in dishes of your own invention. It makes an especially good
marinade base for fish.

I use it all the time. It has 4.3% acidity rather than the 5% of
'regular' vinegar, and so is a little milder. Other than that, there's
nothing special about it. There *is* a "seasoned" rice vinegar that
has sugar and salt added, and is recommended (on the label) for making
sushi rice.

Both the seasoned and plain versions of Marukan brand rice vinegar
mention that it is "brewed", which may lead to the 'rice wine'
confusion.

Maybe you're right. I hadn't got around to killfiling you yet so
maybe I'll just have more fun and not killfile you, asshole. :-)
You're right, that's better. Thanks for the tip. Now before someone
goes criticizing me over it, Dimitri called someone a rude name, then
when someone told him they thought that wasn't nice he gave the advice
to have fun and not swallow the desire to call someone "a dolt, a
ditz, and idiot, or even worse." I'm just taking the dipshit's
advice, and he's right. This is fun. :-)

HA! I'm *really* not that bad of a guy. I'm just not quite used to
the level of rudeness on this particular newsgroup yet. I've spent a
lot of time on just one other newsgroup and they really and truly are
much more civil on that one than this one. When I see someone acting
rude I need to learn to just think "wow, how rude" and move on instead
of reacting to it "out loud" and rudely. Thank for the extra
injection of humor, though Jack Off. :-)

You know, I thought misc.survivalism was bad for this sort of crap but
it seems that rec.food.cooking is fully its equal in this regard. A
perfectly reasonable thread is started, someone says something that
offends someone else and offends them back then yet another person
joins in and another and another and another so by the time the thread
finally dies the posts that actually have any damned thing at all to
do with the OPs question are far outnumbered by the posts of people
telling each other they're idiots!

A pox on ALL of your houses.

Rice wine vinegar = rice vinegar = used in many Asian dishes.

I really like using rice wine vinegar as the base of a beurre blanc
sauce for fish.

Oops, sorry if I posted twice. I thought I was making a new thread.
I was talking about rice vinegar not rice wine vinegar. Thanks.

I have used the seasoned vinegar, and I like it a lot. When I make
sushi rice, I still need to add about a tablespoon of sugar, but no
salt.
