Chinkiang Black Vinegar
Chinkiang Black Vinegar is a mild, slightly sweet vinegar made from fermented rice and commonly used across East Asian cuisines — from salad dressings to pickles and dipping sauces; varieties include clear rice vinegar and darker Chinkiang (Zhenjiang) black vinegar. It is very low in energy at 20kcal per 100g and contains virtually no fat, protein or fiber, so it contributes flavor without adding calories. Used in small amounts, rice vinegar is mainly a seasoning rather than a source of nutrients; like other vinegars, it has been studied for modest effects on post-meal blood sugar when consumed with carbohydrate-rich foods.
