Thanks for this video! Would you please add the specifics of each one into the introduction portion, and explain the individual notes and approx. pricing for each one? My take: PANEL results #1 was Napa Valley Naturals (via Spain source) #2 O Sherry Vinegar from California; #3 Gran Capirete 50 yrs $$$; and #4 Pompeian. BRIDGET'S CHOICES #1 O Sherry Vinegar (with hints of apricot), #2 Gran Capirete, #3 Napa Valley Naturals and #4 Pompeian – did I get these right?
We ordered the Napa Valley Sherry Vinegar right after watching. What arrived looks like the bottle shown, except it says "15 stars" rather than years and at the bottom of the label it says "by Stonewall Kitchen". I wonder if this is the same stuff?
I bought the Napa Valley and use it all of the time! It is great on roasted veggies and makes a wonderful salad dressing!
Please do a taste test of balsamic vinegar.
Thank you for another great recommendation!
0:22 I really thought I was going blind with all the blurriness!
There are vinegars that use a mother or that carry forward some of the microbes from a previous batch. They're just expensive and probably not going to be found in a regular supermarket.
She says $5.49 per bottle but on Amazon it's now $38.67 per bottle…. o.0
Never heard of this brand.
Thanks I'll try the NAPA, I use vinegars alot since I've cut way back on sodium, and I like it better.
Having recently tried both O and Napa Valley Naturals (because it was all I could find last minute), they are fine, but neither were complex, or actually tasted like true sherry vinegar. Thus, why I always take ATK’s recommendations with a grain of (Sicilian Sea) salt.
I accidentally picked up a bottle of the Napa Valley sherry vinegar (thinking it was cooking sherry). After watching this, I'm excited to give it a try.
This was an awesome video, I truly love sherry vinegar. I spent the equivalent of 20 bucks on a bottle of Capirete sherry vinegar once and it was amazing. I'll probably buy a bottle of Napa Valley vinegar just because of this video, thanks Jack and Bridget! <3
Oh this is timely. I discovered sherry vinegar in Spain (Vinagre de Jerez, which comes from the town of Jerez in southern Spain [Jerez = sherry]) and I haven't looked back. The stuff is amazing but I've had difficulty finding a good one in the US. Now I know what to look for before I actually move to Spain! Thanks!
OK…what supermarket sells this? Haven't been able to find.
I like see you two later😳😘 Hugz luv u guys have a Grape Day!🤗
I really like the sampling of things like this, very informative. Keep them coming.
Sherry vinegar will have you using more vinegar, it’s so versatile! Bummer that it’s so hard to find though. Glad to hear the Napa brand is your winner since it’s pretty widely distributed. Similar flavor by adding straight sherry to stews and soups near the end, like turtle soup in New Orleans: adds a lot of depth. Also: that panning shot at the start was painfully soft, ow!
I love your videos. I have learned so much. Thank you.
“I’m so totally not going to go there!” 😂
I finally was able to find sherry vinegar at my grocery store so I’m interested in hearing more about it.
Napa Valley is what's in my pantry. Luv it!
Love sherry vinegar …I feel like confesses is so versatile in so many recipes …using it more and more on my channel for recipes etc… 😋💯
Dont get ripped off and listen to this nonsense. Make your own. Buy a bottle of sherry and a bottle of apple cider vinegar that says with the mother on the bottle. Drink some of the sherry, add some of the vinegar, cover loosely and let it do its magic. Never ever pay 15 for a small bottle of sherry vinegar again!
