Ask a question about this stepThis sounds lovely. Can you share the name of the sherry vinegar used in this recipe?
I meant brand, not name. Thanks!
The use of basil caught my eye, but I'm intrigued by your crust~ what does the addition of the rice flour do to it?
I think the rice flour lightens it up, it's very fine. I've always added rice flour to shortbread, but this is the first time I've used brown rice flour.

Hi cookwithsusan, I'm sorry, but I just saw this question. I used a Spanish sherry vinegar called Maitre Jacques. Thanks for your comments!
