[Sca-cooks] good brands of vinegar

[a5foil]

It depends so much on what you are using the vinegar for. If the vinegar
flavor isn't going to come through in the finished dish, it doesn't much
matter; if it is, you have to get one with a flavor that complements the
dish -- sort of like cooking with wine. I have a big cardboard box full of
different vinegars. It is fun to go someplace like Williams Sonoma where
they have varieties out to taste -- I've come home with some high-end stuff
that way.

For home cooking I use Pompeian red wine vinegar, a house brand cider
vinegar, and whatever white wine vinegar I can get hold of. For a while I
could get Four Monks brand at the local market, but they've stopped carrying
it, at least at the stores I can get to easily.
