When this gallon-sized UNSEASONED Rice Vinegar is in stock for Amazon Prime, the price is absolutely unbeatable.
This is an excellent vinegar that can be used for any recipe that calls for vinegar...not just Japanese foods.
The difference between seasoned and unseasoned rice vinegar is very important. Seasoned Rice Vinegar has added salt, sugar, and often MSG, while the unseasoned vinegar is simply rice and water. This is critical for properly using the right ingredients for various recipes, without the added ingredients in seasoned vinegar.
The most common heavy use for unseasoned is for properly seasoning sushi rice. It can also be substituted for any recipe that calls for vinegar, and the advantage is the additional umami flavoring that this product brings to food.
Marukan is a top-named brand and along with Kikkoman, is one of the two most recognized brands in Japan as well as worldwide.
Excellent product, and an extraordinary value when Amazon has it in Prime stock. HIGHLY recommended! A++

Marukan Vinegars
Originally brewed from a fermentation process based from sake, rice vinegar was developed in the 1600's in Japan to preserve rice without refrigeration.
Producing rice vinegar with legendary taste takes time. Marukan Vinegars are slowly and naturally brewed using traditional methods developed by over three centuries of experience. The delicate aroma, rich flavor and mild taste of Marukan are all the result of this natural brewing process.
Marukan believes utilizing century old traditional methods with a perfectionist mentality, preserves the perfect vinegar product.

Tradition of Quality since 1649
In the Tokugawa Era in Japan, there was a saying that “Masamune means Sake and Marukan means vinegar.” As a showing of the lasting quality of Marukan vinegar, the name of the company’s founder, Suyakanzaburo was written on every barrel of vinegar produced.
Established in 1649, in Kiyosu, Japan, Marukan has over 370 years of experience making vinegar. Throughout Marukan’s existence the company has evolved from a small family business into a respected and world known brand.

Bulk size such a plus!
By ArtingInMuhPJs on March 24, 2018
I don’t live near any large stores so getting to buy this household staple by the gallon is great. I use it tons of things from sushi dipping sauce to pickling vegetables (see pickled daikon radish) to fruit/vinegar drinks called Shrubs. I love this vinegar!
