MOUNT PROSPECT, ILL. — Mizkan America Food Ingredients has added organic rice vinegar to its line of products. The new addition is a blend of fermented rice grain adjusted with water. It features a bright, amber color, according to the company.
The organic rice in the product is grown in California and milled by Mizkan at its California plant. The product is available in 55-gallon drums and has a 6-month shelf life at room temperature, the company said.
“The demand for natural and organic ingredients continues to grow and we’ve expanded our organic vinegar offerings over the past year to help meet that demand,” said Dave Sackett, executive director of sales and marketing for Mizkan America Food Ingredient division. “Vinegars awaken the palate and are key ingredients in many distinctive sauces, dressings, glazes, marinades and condiments.”
Other organic vinegar varieties offered by the company include apple cider vinegar, white distilled vinegar, balsamic vinegar, red wine vinegar and white wine vinegar.
