Does the colour change the taste?

The choice between crystal and coloured is primarily a visual one, depending on the dish. Use either according to the look you want.

On pale vegetables marinated for a long time, a light tint is possible. For a torshi you want to keep pale, choose the white or crystal vinegar instead.

Is it suitable for preserves?

It preserves just as well, but tints the jars. It is an aesthetic choice: some prefer it precisely for the amber look it gives olives or chillies.

SIDNA coloured alcohol vinegar has the same directness as the crystal, in an amber shade. The colour changes how it is used more than how it tastes: it shows in a vinaigrette, hints at itself in a marinade, and gives dishes a warmer look than a perfectly clear vinegar.

In the kitchen

It belongs wherever you want clean acidity without the transparency of the crystal: red-meat marinades, brown sauces, vinaigrettes on composed salads where the colour of the dressing shows.

For grilled meat, mix it with oil, crushed garlic, paprika and cumin. The darker shade disappears during cooking.

Avoid it on very pale dishes — white cabbage, rice salad, white fish — where it would leave a visible mark without adding anything to the taste.

Choosing it and keeping it

Like every alcohol vinegar it keeps for a long time at room temperature, bottle upright and closed. Avoid direct light: not for safety, but because it can shift the shade.

Close it carefully after use. It is not oxidation that threatens a vinegar but evaporation: it concentrates the acidity and throws off the ratios you are used to.
