Balsamic vinegar is made from grape pressings which have not been made into wine. It is aged in barrels similar to wine. It is generally very deep burgundy and slightly sweet and syrupy, depending how long it has been aged. Other vinegars such as white wine or rice wine vinegar are made from wine in a controlled process. The sugar in the mixture becomes alcohol and the alcohol becomes acetic acid in order to produce vinegar.
No. Though they are both types of vinegar, they are not the same. Wine vinegar is made from red or white wine, while balsamic vinegar is made from the concentrated juice of Trebbiano grapes. Wine is made from fermented grapes, therefore the two vinegars are considerably more similar to each other than other kinds of vinegar.
What??? balsamic has oil and junk??? no!! balsamic vinegar is made from Trebbiano grapes only. Grape vinegar can be made from an assortment of grapes. The aging process is the same no, you idiot... grape vinegar has grape.... and balsamic has oil and other junk i dont care about
No. Apple cider vinegar is the direct product of fermented apple juice. Balsamic apple cider vinegar has been allowed to evaporate, losing acetic acid and water, but mellowing and concentrating the flavor.
no there are many varieties of vinegars. rice, apple, balsamic.
A vinaigrette is a dressing made by mixing in oil, herbs and vinegar, in this case balsamic vinegar.
No
no
no
no. You can not substitute any other vinegar for balsamic and get the same flavor.
I think "rendered balsamic vinegar" is the same as "reduced balsamic vinegar" - heat it up in a pan until it has evaporated to (at least) half the volume that it was originally.
It depends on the type and size. A 16 oz bottle of Apple Cider Vinegar costs about $2, the same size bottle of Balsamic Vinegar costs about $11. The costs also vary for White Vinegar, Red Wine Vinegar, and so on.
You could if you don't mind the fact that it tastes entirely different. Balsamic vinegar is actually made from boiled white grape juice, aged for years in a series of casks of different kinds of wood. It doesn't taste much at all like a combination of red wine and distilled vinegar.
No vinegar is different from wine.
No, wine and vinegar are quite different (whether derived from rice, grapes, or whatever). Wine contains alcohol, and vinegar contains acetic acid.
No, White vinegar is plain Acetic acid in water, but either as a simple chemical mix (usually very cheap or cleaning grade vinegar) or through fermentation of distilled alcohol (akin to Vodka). White wine vinegar is made from the fermentation of real White wine. As such White vinegar has a simple acidic taste, whilst White Wine vinegar retains much of its original White wine taste, with its alcohol replaced by the Acetic acid of vinegar.
Yes, but of course it won't taste the same.
You cannot usually substitute balsamic vinegar for cider vinegar. The flavor profiles are quite different. However the chemical properties are similar, so the actual answer depends on the particular situation.
What I found that works as a substituteWhat I found in a book called "The Yeast connection" some people suffering symptoms caused by or aggrevated from vinegar were advised to use an all natural vitamin C substitute. It's called Vitamin C crystals buffered or unbuffered I forget which now, about a teaspoon and some water stirred until disolved has a nice vinegar bite to it in flavor. Great for adding to salads and of course usually oil. Best I found so far.
yeah... technically but the only thing is that the white wine vinegar gives a sharper taste.
