Distilled vinegar is a type of vinegar made from the fermentation of ethyl alcohol, generally derived from grains such as corn or wheat. Its flavor is acidic and clean, with a more neutral profile than other types of vinegar like wine or apple vinegar, making it a versatile ingredient in the kitchen for dressings, marinades, preserves, and sauces.
The origin of distilled vinegar dates back to traditional distillation and fermentation techniques in Europe, although its industrial production has spread globally. It is very popular in both home and professional recipes for its ability to balance flavors without adding complex additional tones.
Among its properties, its low-calorie content, natural preservative power, and its ability to enhance flavors stand out. Furthermore, as it is a fermented product, it can contribute to some extent to digestive health.
In different Latin American countries, distilled vinegar may also be known as white vinegar, pure vinegar, or simply vinegar when the culinary context is clear.
