Hi there,<\/p>\n

When you go to Daiso for\u00a0shopping next time, you might want to get this bottle of mirin which is a sweet Japanese wine use for cooking.<\/p>\n

This is indispensable in every japanese kitchen just like how soya sauce is to all Chinese, so give it a try and see if it is going to be your best companion in the kitchen –\u00a0a kitchen must have indeed.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

To me, the three most\u00a0important thing\u00a0in every kitchen that you must have is oil, soya sauce and cooking wine.<\/p>\n

You can just add soya sauce for any no frills recipes but mirin will add depth to the dish\u00a0you cook, giving it a nice finishing touch and round off the look of the dish as the sugar content perk up the look and taste of it.<\/p>\n

Enough said on it’s goodness, so how exactly do you use it?<\/p>\n

You can use it in stew, marinates, stir fry, I even pour this when I cook Japanese clay pot rice or miso soup with lots of ingredients. This cooking wine instantly perks up any dishes, although I am not quite sure if it is the sugar content but I truly like using this Japanese sweet cooking wine. I usually\u00a0use around one tablespoon on each dish I cook.<\/p>\n

And as I always find this selling out quite fast, I like to stock up when I see it\u00a0at Daiso. Other brands from supermarkets can set you back\u00a0over\u00a0$3.5 or more,\u00a0so for me Daiso brand is a better choice,\u00a0as it cost only $2 and can last me for quite a while, a cheap and good deal.<\/p>\n

Do take note as\u00a0this is sweet so you will not require to add any sugar to\u00a0your dishes if you use this. Another thing to take note of is\u00a0no matter what, it is still cooking wine so you ought to cook a while before you turn off the fire to evaporate out some alcohol content. I know, it can be tempting to have the alcohol in it and let everyone be merry &\u00a0chomping down the food, still try your best not to\u00a0\ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

So next time when you are at Daiso, remember to check out this mirin and bring home one before the stock runs out.<\/p>\n

Happy cooking!<\/p>\n
