Description

Master authentic Chinese cooking with Gold Plum Chinkiang Vinegar (金山牌 鎮江香醋). Traditionally brewed in Jiangsu, China, this iconic 550mL glass bottle is crafted through natural solid-state fermentation of glutinous rice, wheat, and bran. Featuring a deep mahogany color and a complex, malty, mild-acidic flavor profile with smoky undertones, this vegan-friendly black vinegar serves as an essential staple for dumpling dipping sauces, braised pork ribs, Shanghai soup dumplings (Xiao Long Bao), and Asian cold appetizers.

Kitchen Cooking Golden Rule: Mix with shredded fresh ginger and soy sauce for the classic soup dumpling dip, or splash into hot woks toward the end of stir-frying to preserve its rich aromatic acidity.

Pantry Storage Golden Rule: Store in a cool, dry pantry away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Keep tightly capped after opening to maintain full aromatic intensity.
