Mirin is a Japanese/Chinese sweet rice wine seasoning. You need a combination of acidic and sweet flavors for this. Can’t always get Mirin here. Easy to fix. Make your own. This is better than store bought, cheaper and last eons in the pantry.
Ingredients
- • ½ cup raw sugar. shopping list
- • 1 Tbs. dark cane syrup; optional. shopping list
- • 1 cup Saki, dry white wine, vermouth, or dry sherry. Saki is traditional and best. shopping list
How to make it
- 1. Combine the sugar and Saki (wine) in a small saucepan. Heat but do not boil (125 F or 50 C is good), stirring to ensure the sugar has dissolved.
- 2. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool. Taste and add the cane syrup for depth and color, if you like.
- Keeps forever in a dark place in the pantry.
