Vinegar

Ingredients

Preparation

  1. Have one kind, need another

    Step 1

    Vinegars can be substituted for one another, but don’t expect the dish to taste as it was intended. Here are some substitution suggestions: For balsamic vinegar, substitute sherry vinegar or red wine vinegar and a bit of sugar. White and red wine vinegar can be substituted for each other. For apple cider vinegar, use white vinegar if you’re pickling something or wine vinegar if you’re not.

  2. Need some, have none

    Step 2

    Use twice as much lemon juice as you would have used vinegar.
