My family absolutely loves Asian cooking and using rice vinegar. We are always looking for ways to lighten up dishes as well. I have used rice vinegars in my Asian dishes before, but honestly I didn’t realize how many different varieties Nakano has!
Beyond the different varieties, I also didn’t think about how many ways, outside of Asian cooking, you can use Nakano Rice Vinegar. Recently my family was able to try this brand of rice vinegars, and I LOVED putting it on my salads. I normally use balsamic vinegar and spices to dress my salads. With the Nakano Garlic Rice Vinegar, I figured I would give it a whirl. It was actually really delicious. It gave my balsamic a run for its money.
My husband isn’t too adventurous when it comes to some things, so when we decided to make a dish with our favorite flavor of rice vinegar he opted making one of his favorites; chicken stir fry. Rather than using the regular rice vinegar, we used the garlic flavor in our dish, and it added a great twist to one of our family favorites!
