Chicken cooked with summer vegetables seasoned with rice vinegar
The theme tells almost everything. Seasoning was with sweet sake, sesami oil and soy sauce in addition to rice vinegar. Vinegar tastes good in this hot season. It also reduces the amount of soy sauce added, that is, contributing to less salt.
It is not Sushi vinegar. Sushi vinegar contains sugar and salt. This is the pure rice vinegar used in this dish. I tried to look for the recipe in vain. Vinegar will reduce the amoung of salt used in the dish and is refreshing us in this season. Try any dish with vinegar, whatever the kind is.
That looks really tasty. Is that the same rice vinegar used to prepare sushi rice? I will have to try this.
