SMART SHOPPING: SHERRY VINEGAR

Sherry vinegar is a great addition to any pantry because it has a lively, complex flavor, and a little of it can brighten up just about any soup, salad, or side dish. Unlike the complex and slightly sweet balsamic vinegar that Italian cooking favors, sherry vinegar, made from the Spanish fortified wine for which it is named, is smoother and a bit more potent. Sherry vinegar works well in sauces paired with hearty meats or in any dish where a bright and lively finishing touch would be welcome.
