Question: I have a recipie for butterflied lamb it says to use red wine vinegar can i use balsamic instead!?
i'm supposed to use 1/4 of red wine vinegar, and 3'4 of a cup of red wine!.Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
Balsamic is all I use!. It will taste delish! You can even add fruit juice to the balsamic and let it soak and it will add a great flavor!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

It depends!. Is the finishing sauce supposed to be sweet!? Balsamic vinegar is on the sweet tart side whereas red vinegar isn't!. If the amount of vinegar is that small, you can substitute another vinegar like white wine, plain white or champagne!. If I didn't have red wine vinegar, I would use all red wine instead with a splash of lemon juice or similar sour liquid!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

You'll probably be okay!. But, I'd start with 1 tablespoon of balsamic, taste as you go and work up to the 4 T!. (1/4 cup) if you need that much!. Balsamic is a sweet vinegar!. I love the stuff but it can be overdone!. If you use less than 1/4 cup, you can add a little water if you really need a full cup of liquid!.

If you have red wine vinegar, I'd stick to the recipe!. After you've made the dish once, it's easier to tell where you can make adjustments that suit your taste buds!.

Do use the red wine!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

The balsamic will caramalise and become sweeter!. It will change the flavour quite a bit!. But it won't taste bad!. I use Balsamic on meats quite often when BBQing or roasting!. It depends on what the actual recipe is though!. So if you do not want it to change so much then I agree that using normal vinegar would be the better option!. But do not omit the red wine itself!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

balsamic vinegar will flavor the lamb totally differently that the red wine vinegar!. If anything use regular white vinegar and
the red wine!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

yes, you can use balsamic instead of the red wine vinegar!. I'd suggest you not skip the red wine, however!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

You can try it!. It might give it a slightly different flavor but I think it will taste just as good!. Add some sugar if its too tart!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

It will not make a huge difference!. I actually prefer balsamic to the wine!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
