To soak your rice, pop one cup of rice into 1 Â½ cups water with 2 tablespoons of some type of acid (I use lemon juice as I always have a lemon in my kitchen, but you can also use yoghurt, kefir or vinegar). Soak the rice overnight, then drain and cook as you normally would.
Check the vinegar after a couple weeks and taste it. The rice vinegar is good to go when it tastes like rice wine vinegar. Let the vinegar sit longer to increase its potency, if desired. Pour the vinegar through a sieve with a couple layers of cheesecloth lining it and into a measuring cup. Transfer the vinegar to a sterilized bottle with a rubber stopper.
