It can, but it is usually very salty and acidic, so it is better used in small amounts as a flavoring. Drinking large amounts regularly is not a great habit for most people.
It works well in salad dressings, marinades, fish or chicken dishes, and pasta sauces. It pairs especially well with lemon, olive oil, garlic, and parsley.
Once opened, keep it tightly sealed in the refrigerator. Using clean utensils and avoiding long periods at room temperature helps preserve quality.
