Does balsamic vinegar need to be refrigerated?

After opening the bottle for the first time, you need to make sure you close it tightly after each use and put it back where it belongs. That's about it when it comes to storage of balsamic vinegar. That means that balsamic vinegar does not need to be refrigerated.

What is the main ingredient of balsamic vinegar?

Traditional balsamic vinegar is made only with one ingredient — “grape must” (in Italian, “mosto”), the sweet juice of freshly pressed grapes — that is boiled to a concentrate, fermented and acidified, and aged for 12 to 25 years or longer in wood barrels.

Which vinegar has the most acetic acid?

White vinegar tends to have seven percent acetic acid, which is a higher level than other vinegars. Slightly milder vinegars, such as balsamic and red wine vinegar, have about six percent, and a relatively mild rice wine vinegar is around four and a half percent (none of which you would use for ricotta).
