About Rice Wine Vinegars:

Chinese rice vinegars are milder and less acidic than regular vinegar (as are Japanese vinegars).  There are three basic types - black, red and white -as well as sweetened black vinegars.  The black variety is somewhat similar to balsamic vinegar, while red vinegar has both a sweet and tart taste.  White vinegar is the closest in acidity and flavor to regular vinegar.  Rice wine has been produced in China since 2500 B.C. It is made using a similar technique as is used for Sake. It uses the same mold culture, aspergillus oryzae, as does soy sauce, salted black beans, and Japanese miso & mirin which accounts for the similarities in aroma.

Uses ...

Chinese Rice Wine is integral to authentic Chinese cooking. Shao Xing (pronouced "shao shing") rice wine is produced in the central coastal town of Zhejiang where the rice is well suited for wine production. Use rice wine in sauces and for marinating meats to help produce authentic Asian cuisine.
