What goes with Rice Vinegar?
Clear rice vinegar is a fluid acidic seasoning with a relatively unobtrusive cereal-fermentation background. The reference here is unseasoned vinegar, not sweetened sushi seasoning or dark aged rice vinegar. Brands differ in acidity and residual sweetness, which changes the amount needed in a dressing or quick pickle.

Pairing principles
What pairs well with Rice Vinegar?
Combine it with a source of savouriness or sweetness rather than relying on acidity alone. Toasted sesame supplies richness and dry crunch; soy sauce supplies salt and depth. On cooked fish, a small finished condiment provides precision without a long acid soak that tightens the flesh.
