NAKANO Natural Rice Vinegar’s is used in many tasty dishes from Asian, salads, fish and much more! NAKANO adds just a touch of sweetness and a bit of tang to your dishes, and it’s so delicious! You’ll be able to put your culinary skills to use and go a little bit healthier when cooking!
I, Wendy, received 5 different flavors of NAKANO Natural Rice Vinegar’s to review. These are some of the wonderful flavors they sent me to use and try out!
- Organic Rice Vinegar Natural
- Seasoned Organic Rice Vinegar Splash On Original
- Seasoned Rice Vinegar Splash On Basil & Oregano
- Seasoned Rice Vinegar Splash On Citrus
- Seasoned Rice Vinegar Splash On Roasted Garlic
Each one of the bottles of vinegar has its unique flavor and flare. I have looked up tons of recipes for my family and me to try. I’m like a kid in a candy store! I love new recipes. To me, it helps break up the monotony in what we eat.
Recipes:
I went online to see what type of recipes would be right with these bottles of rice vinegar. I found a lot of great recipes! Here are a few:
- Bitters Honey Vinaigrette
- Spanish Tapas – Roasted Bell Pepper with Tapenade
- Grilled Seafood with Mixed-Olive Tapenade
If those are not your cup of tea, you can search Yummly.com, Allrecipe.com and of course, Pinterest for great recipes! I have put Seasoned Rice Vinegar Slash On Basil & Oregano with a little pepper on my salad and fell in love! That stuff was amazing and not to mention healthier than the salad dressings you buy out of the store.
My Thoughts:
I love cooking in the kitchen, period. I started cooking with rice vinegar since earlier this year and have loved it ever since. Some of the recipes I have prepared are Orange Chicken Over Rice and CrockPot Sweet and Sour Meatballs. Both dishes turned out amazing!
The rice vinegar collection from NAKANO is a great cooking tool that you can have in your kitchen. The flavored vinegar I have never tried before but love them on salads. I am hoping to find more uses for them. My favorite so far is the Seasoned Rice Vinegar Splash On Basil & Oregano. I don’t have to worry about the extra calories, and it brings a zig to my salad. Not to mention, I love the taste of Basil and Oregano.
I made some fried potatoes and sprinkled a little bit on the potatoes after they cooked. Yummy! It reminded me of a fat and crispy potato chip. The sky is the limit when you incorporate rice vinegar in your cooking.
Storage:
Rice Vinegar has a long shelf life as long as you store it properly. I store mine in the fridge once I have opened it. You can also store it in your cabinet with the other spices. I use NAKANO Rice Vinegar for a lot of different recipes, so I don’t keep mine very long.
