Dilled pasta salad with spring vegetables

Print Products and services By Mayo Clinic Staff

Dietitian s tip

Rice vinegar is a clean-tasting, brisk condiment favored in Asian kitchens. White wine vinegar reflects the characteristics of white wine and is thought to have more "bite." Use either type of vinegar in the dressing for this dilled pasta salad.
