Japanese Rice Vinegars are mild, slightly sweet vinegars made from fermented rice, prized for their delicate flavour and versatility in Japanese cuisine. They are typically less acidic than Western vinegars, making them ideal for enhancing dishes without overpowering them. There are two main types: unseasoned rice vinegar, which is pure fermented rice vinegar, and seasoned rice vinegar, which includes added ingredients.

An example of unseasoned rice vinegar is Jun Komezu, a high-quality variety made purely from rice without any added alcohol or sugars. Jun Komezu has a clean, mellow acidity and is often used in refined dishes where the purity of flavour is essential, such as in clear dressings or subtle dipping sauces and is excellent for seasoning sushi rice.

Seasoned vinegars are used in specific preparations like Sushisu—a blend of rice vinegar, sugar, and salt used to season sushi rice—and Sanbaizu, a classic mixture of rice vinegar, soy sauce, and mirin or sugar. Sanbaizu is commonly used as a dressing or dipping sauce for vinegared salads (sunomono), grilled fish, or cold tofu. These blends highlight how rice vinegar acts as both a seasoning and a flavour enhancer in Japanese cooking, contributing gentle acidity, subtle sweetness, and balance to a wide range of dishes.
