You can use cider vinegar or rice vinegar and only the most discriminating palates will tell the difference.
Apple cider vinegar is a vegan product as it uses no ingredients that originate with animals. However, when necessary, another vinegar such as rice vinegar could be used, as could any red wine or simple apple juice combined with a tablespoon or two of white vinegar.
While they both are vinegar, they have very different flavors and it might have a big affect on the overall taste of the finished dish. White vinegar would be the best substitute. Even plain white wine vinegar would be closer.
A mild and sweeter western vinegar such as champagne vinegar or white wine vinegar will substitute
White wine vinegar would be the best substitute, if you have it on hand.
Red wine vinegar is not a combination of vinegar and red wine. It is red wine that has turned to vinegar, the alcohol being converted to acid.
NO. red wine vinegar has no alcohol in it. It is not fit to drink. Red wine can be cooked with and drank. The alcohol with cook off when heated, but the flavor will remain. I would not substitute red wine for red wine vinegar or vice versa. But even so there may be a marinade where i would. But, after saying that, there are no rules! Experiment with substitutions, you could create something great!
Malt vinegar, white wine vinegar, white spirit vinegar. Spirit vinegar doesn't taste as good as any of the brewed vinegars. The closest substitute is probably white wine vinegar mixed with an equal quantity of apple juice. Failing that, mix apple juice with malt vinegar. Red wine vinegar would give a taste that you might not want.
No vinegar is different from wine.
If color is not important, red balsamic vinegar would be the best substitute for white. Otherwise, a sweet white wine would be a possible replacement.
Two different items you will change the outcome of the dish. I would stick to the recipe.
White wine vinegar is the better substitute for rice vinegar.
Red wine vinegar is red wine which has oxidized to turn into vinegar. Unless your vinegar is what is called "non-brewed condiment," ALL vinegar is oxidized alcoholic liquor. Wine vinegars are made from wines, cider vinegar is made from fermented apple juice, malt vinegar is made from a simple beer, etc.
