This is a mild, slightly sweet vinegar made from either fermented rice or from rice wine.
Red rice vinegar is used as a dip for foods; white is used in sweet and sour dishes, and black is used in stir-fries and dressings. The red has more of a sweet and sour taste, the white is mild, and the black has a salty taste.
Chinese Rice Vinegars are, in general, stronger than Japanese. One type of Japanese Rice Vinegar is made by blending rice vinegar with sake.
