Whoa! That's not vinegar, it's sugar cane liquor.POTAWIE said:cachaça a lot, but I have no idea what that is. Any help would be appreciated.
I used to serve caipirinhas as a bartender with Pitu cachaca. It's a sugar cane liquor, like rum, but it's nasty straight, unlike rum. You have to add a lot of sugar to this liquor to make a palatable drink. Sugar + limes + cachaca = caipirinha.chuk hell said:Cachaca is sort of like rum or auga dienta ( sp) .
I like apple cider vinegar for most of my sauces.

POTAWIE said:I'm starting to try different vinegers in my home-made sauces and was hoping for suggestions. My brazilian buddy uses cachaça a lot, but I have no idea what that is. Any help would be appreciated.
POTAWIE said:How do you know a good vinegar other than price and where do you purchase high quality vinegars. I just use what's at the grocery store but would like to know more.

E.Z. Earl said:My question first is what kind of sauce was your buddy building and , most important, how did it turn out. My point is, as a maker, what is your objective? My Blazin'-Hot Stuff (and Smokin'-Hot) always seems to surprise people because vinegar is my number one ingredient but the finshed sauce has no distinct vinegar note. (I use the highest quality distilled white I can find, by the way.) Why? Because that was the objective when I began my R&D process. If I wanted vinegar as a flavor component than I would trudge through the tedious R&D process of testing various flavorful vinegars until I settled on the one with the right note. (Probably some type of cider one) Not to pontificate too much but it is my belief that the single most important ingredient in a new food product is "patience", and it doesn't even have to be listed on the label!!
