Which type of vinegar should you use for salad dressings?
- Red and white wine vinegars are good choices for salad dressings.
- Apple cider vinegar can be substituted; it is mild and has a sweeter flavor.
- Rice vinegar is the mildest of all vinegar, with much less acidity than other vinegars. It's often used in Asian or Chinese cooking.
- Plain distilled vinegar is made from grain alcohol and has a very sharp, unpleasant taste. Use it in very small quantities or add some sugar to sweeten the taste.
- Lemon and lime juices can be substituted for red and white wine vinegars, apple cider vinegar, and rice vinegar.
