Its Miyata Sushi Expert range includes mirin, sushi vinegar and nori seaweed, and it exports to EU countries and beyond; in Germany its products are distributed by the importer Kreyenhop & Kluge.
What we stock
Mirin (500 ml glass bottle) is a sweet rice seasoning used in Japanese cooking. Traditional hon-mirin contains around 14% alcohol; this version is alcohol-free, so it also suits dishes where you do not want alcohol.
Mirin gives sauces a gentle sweetness and shine – it belongs in teriyaki, in glazes for grilled fish or eel, in noodle broths and in the vinegar mix for sushi rice.
