Japanese Mirin
Mizkan Sushi Seasoning 275ml takes the guesswork out of making perfectly seasoned sushi rice. Blending rice vinegar with sugar and salt in the right balance, it gives rice the lightly sweet, tangy flavour and glossy finish that makes great sushi. Simply stir it through freshly cooked rice and it's ready for sushi rolls, nigiri or poke bowls.
It is far more versatile than sushi alone. Use it to dress cucumber salads, pickle vegetables in minutes, add brightness to slaws or stir into cold noodle dishes. It also works brilliantly alongside nori sheets, Japanese soy sauce, Kewpie mayonnaise, sesame seeds, pickled ginger and wasabi for creating Japanese-inspired meals at home.

Why does sushi seasoning need to be mixed into warm rice?
Warm rice absorbs the seasoning evenly, allowing every grain to take on the balanced sweet and tangy flavour while developing the glossy texture associated with good sushi rice.
Can sushi seasoning be used for quick pickling?
Yes. It works particularly well for cucumbers, carrots, radishes and red onions. Simply pour it over thinly sliced vegetables and leave them for around 20 to 30 minutes before serving.
What dishes can benefit from sushi seasoning beyond Japanese recipes?
It is excellent anywhere a gentle acidity is needed. Try adding it to potato salad, grain salads, coleslaw, roasted vegetables or even as part of a light vinaigrette for leafy salads.
