Syrup, Sauce, Oil & Vinegar

Mirin is an essential seasoning in most Japanese cooking, as it forms an essential component of the sauces or broths in dishes like teriyaki chicken and sukiyaki hotpots. Mirin is what gives these dishes their unique sweetness, as well as their distinct glazed appearance. For Japan Centre’s entire range of mirin, take a look in the Mirin & Cooking Sake section.

Bring Japanese flavours to your cooking with ease using Takara’s Hon Mirin rice wine. Made from rice, rice malt, alcohol and sweeteners, this large 1L of bottle of mirin is ideal for adding to sauces like teriyaki, and soups like sukiyaki, as it removes unwanted odours from fish and meat as well as adding a touch of sweetness and shine.
