Vinegar
Culinary Versatility
Vinegar is used in various cuisines worldwide, adding flavor or preserving food.

I use vinegar to pickle vegetables and marinade meats.
Acidity in Taste
Vinegar gives a sharp and tangy flavor, enhancing the taste of dressings and sauces.

A splash of vinegar balanced the sweetness of the barbecue sauce.
Not for Sweetness
Unlike its common pairing with oil, vinegar contributes sourness, not sweetness.

To correct the dish's sweetness, I added a bit of vinegar.
