Sweetened black rice vinegar would be good for dipping sauces. You could use it as a substitute but the taste would be a little different. Grab a proper one the next time!

I accidentally purchased the fermented type. How do I use it?
Can I use it in recipes as a substitute for the black rice vinegar?

Welcome to my blog Jennifer! Black rice vinegar does have added salt and it has a strong, complex, aromatic taste. A must-have if you wish to explore authentic Chinese cuisine. Give it a try!

I am going to add Black Rice Vinegar to my pantry. Does it have added salt? I like regular rice vinegar for its very light taste, but it is definitely the least complex of vinegars I have tried. Thanks again for demystifying these dishes for English-speakers!

In Chinese cuisine cucumber is mostly served raw in salads. Occasionally it’s stir-fried, such as in Moo Shu Pork. For my cucumber salad recipe, it’s used as it is. No cooking involved.

The owner couldn’t give me an answer how to prepare an Asian cucumber. Just said that it needed to be cooked. In a sauté only…? Wanted to make your cucumber salad…pls advise.

Rice wine vinegar is another term for rice vinegar in general. Black rice vinegar is one variety which is more aromatic than many clear, pale-yellow Chinese rice vinegar. The authentic dipping sauce for Xiaolongbao would be black/dark rice vinegar.

May I know the difference between rice wine vinegar and black rice vinegar? I have uncooked xiao long bao dumplimgs at home and would like to make a sauce, but I only have rice wine vinegar at hand. (I tasted the vinegar and it tastes quite strong–a bit like alcohol really!)
