marukan rice vinegarWe eat a lot of salad in our house. We love our greens. They’re good for us and tasty. And when I can get 4 kids to agree on a salad, I consider it winning. Recently I made a Pecan Strawberry Salad with Dijon Vinaigrette made with Marukan Organic Rice Vinegar. Everyone loved it and the vinaigrette was versatile for so many salads.

I’ve heard of rice vinegar but had never bought it to work with at home. I can’t believe I’ve been missing our on rice vinegar all these years! It’s light and delicate and works well in so many recipes. And they are non-GMO certified, Kosher certified, and organic!
