Mirin is a sweet rice wine frequently used in Japanese cooking. It has a lower alcohol content than sake and a higher sugar content, giving it a sweet flavour. Mirin is commonly used to add extra depth and sweetness to sauces, soups, glazes. It commonly found in Japanese dishes like teriyaki or stir-fries.
Rice wine, such as sake or Shaoxing wine, is made by fermenting rice. It has a higher alcohol content than mirin and is often used in cooking to tenderise meat, add flavour to broths, or as a base for marinades. It’s a versatile ingredient found in both Japanese and Chinese cuisines.
Rice vinegar is a mild, slightly sweet vinegar made from fermented rice, often used for sushi rice, dressings, and sauces to add a gentle tang.
Sesame oil is a fragrant, nutty oil extracted from sesame seeds. In Asian cuisine, it’s often used as a finishing oil rather than for cooking at high temperatures. Its rich flavour enhances stir-fries, soups, salads, and marinades, adding a warm, toasty aroma and depth to dishes.
Mirin and Rice Wine: Store in a cool, dry place. If they are cooking varieties, they can be stored at room temperature; otherwise, refrigeration is recommended.
Rice Vinegar: Keep in a cool, dry place. Once opened, it can be stored at room temperature or in the fridge to prolong its freshness.
Sesame Oil: Store in a cool, dark place. Once opened, it’s best to refrigerate it to maintain freshness.
Yes, mirin, rice wine, rice vinegar, and sesame oil are all plant-based and suitable for vegetarian and vegan diets. However, some mirin products may include added ingredients, so check the label if you have dietary concerns.
These gunmies are amazing. My kids love them. Quick delivery.
I have had this gochujang paste before and use it on everything from a spicy roast chicken, salmon fillets and beef mince to marinades and dressings. It elevates everything to super-tasty. Morueats has a great range of products (particularly if you don't live in a city or near to an asian market) and delivered quickly.
They love japanese cooking. Seems very nice.

I love the Kopiko Coffee candy as it packs a full coffee flavour in a very small sweet.
I don't know why more Coffee shops don't give these beauties with every cup of coffee served.
