Sherry vinegar is as staple in Spanish cuisine and is highly versatile for both serving and cooking. When it comes to serving dishes, drizzle sherry vinegar over a freshly grilled fish or incorporate it into salad dressings using extra virgin olive oil, garlic, Dijon mustard, and a pinch of salt. You can pickle vegetables in a mixture of sherry vinegar, olive oil, herbs, and spices. Marinated olives with sherry vinegar, garlic, and herbs are also a great tapa to serve. When cooking, sherry vinegar enhances Spanish recipes by adding depth and acidity. Add it to braising liquids for meats like beef, pork, or chicken, or create reduction sauces with shallots, garlic, herbs, and stock. It balances flavors in stews, brightens sautéed vegetables, and can be used in marinades for dishes like Pollo al Ajillo (garlic chicken) or Pescado en Adobo (marinated fish).
