Ginger Vinegar
Product Information
Product SKU: 4803 Category: Togo-Su.Master crafted by true vinegar artisans following ancestral methods handed down through the generations, Togo Su Ginger Vinegar is the perfect combination of spice, acidity and the natural floral bouquet only ginger can provide. Created by natural fermentation, these craftsmen combine local brown rice, local ginger, spring water and brown rice koji in large stoneware pots which are set in the sun for the duration of its natural journey. Typically started in the spring or the fall when the mid-day sun is still mild and the nights are cool, which is ideal for this natural process. Dedicated workers stir each pot every couple of days over the next few months until the master instructs them the pot are ready to be left alone to allow the mother to form. After anywhere from six months to a year depending on the weather the resulting liquid is a clear, mostly one-dimensional vinegar. Each pot is topped off with spring water and left undisturbed to age to the masters liking, which is typically around one to one and half years. The finished product is a perfect balance of spice, nice acidity and pleasant ginger bouquet, lending many culinary applications.
