Hakkaisan(八海山）
It is from the Uonuma region of Niigata prefecture; we All know the area produces the best quality rice.
It is located at the foot of the Hakkaisan mountains;
the clean and cold snowmelt water grows the best quality rice. And this Hakkaisan Tokubetsu Junmai is made of THE MOST high-quality in Japan, rice clean cold snowmelt water.
That should be lovely premium Sake.
It has a very light mouth feel that I have never had and a dry and clean taste. So smooth and finish with a refreshing aftertaste.
I am a person who loves cakes and chocolate, but when it comes to Sake, I love a dry and clean taste.
I made broccoli and ramen egg salad for Hakkaisan.
The rich egg yolk And dry and light Sake complement each other.
It goes so well with Hakkasan.
If you make a head of Ramen egg and boiled broccoli, healthy and nutritious food are ready in a minute.
And I found the chocolate cake and fruit go so well with Hakkaisan.
Rich and dense semi-sweet chocolate cake that melts in your mouth, it’s going to create a new aroma when you have a sip of Hakkaisan Sake. Heavenly Good!
And here is the bonus recipe, Sliced dried persimmon, but you can use apricot or fig sandwich cream cheese and cut it into small pieces.
And you were going to have a very luxurious happy hour With your friends and families over the conversation.
Chouryo Yoshinosugi no Taru Sake(長龍 吉野杉の樽酒）
This Sake is from Nara prefecture, where I live, so it’s my local Sake.
Yoshinosugi is a type of Japanese cedar and is well known for its quality all over Japan.
The Sake is stored in cedar to give it a woody aroma, and the category is Futsushu which means daily Sake, and it should be the required quality and affordable price.
First, you are going to taste Sweet Umami and finish with a spicy and smoky kick.
I love this type of Sake at a warm temperature to change its mouth feel mild and round. It goes down so smoothly with a relaxing aroma.
And I made tofu and chicken nugget for Taru Zake.
For this type of Sake, I want a little bit richer food, but not too rich, so I made a fluffy and lighter version of Deep-fried finger food.
Make ahead and store it in a freezer; you can have it anytime you want.
How to warm up your Sake
Here is how I do it. Transfer the Sake to a minor ceramic Sake pitcher and microwave for 30 seconds at 800 W. You can add more cooking time to the temperature to your
I like the Lukewarm, almost the same as the body temperature for this Taru Zake.
It goes down so smoothly with a comfortable aroma!
