Product Characteristics

The jiggling excitement of chewy - gelatinous texture change !

Mirin is a rare seaweed that has been loved in certain areas of Kyushu, Japan. The natural property of Mirin causes its form to be fragile and easily resolvent just after a few hours. In order to prevent this, we take good care by immediately drying it while it is still freshly harvested.

By making use of the texture that is the biggest feature of miline in cooking

外側はコリッとした歯応えでありながら、中身はジュルッとしたとろみがあるミリン。

その食感のバランスは、使う料理に合わせて調整することができ、しっかりした歯応えを楽しみたいなら、水戻しは軽めに。しっかり水に浸せば、プリッとした食感に。

さらに煎り酒やお好みの調味料につけ込むことで旨味を吸うなど、料理への合わせ方は自由自在。

Seaweed that can be more interesting than funny

When I dived into the sea and picked up a natural, raw mirin, I thought it was very interesting because of the plump feeling.

However, it is the most vulnerable to environmental changes among the seaweeds I have dealt with so far. So much so that the state changes in a very short time.
Mirin is so delicate that its texture is very distinctive. Unlike tosakanori, which has the same texture no matter which part you eat, mirin has an outer body and a filling, and the outside is crispy and the inside is squishy.

It's much more enjoyable to eat with a certain amount in your mouth

If mirin is used at home, it is interesting to add it to hot pot dishes instead of shirataki. Instead of simmering them together, you can easily enjoy them just by putting them in the finished place.

Also, I think it would be delicious to put grated radish and mirin together in about half and half and sprinkle it with ponzu sauce or broth. The mirin absorbs the pungency and taste of the radish and gives it texture.

Then there's the melted rice. If you combine the melted mirin in a half-and-half ratio, the texture is delicious.

It has a gentle taste with no peculiarities, so you can season it with any kind of flavor

It may be delicious to eat rice with wasabi on mirin soaked in soy sauce. I also put Sujia Onori on it.

I'm a big maniac, but lately I've been seasoning seaweed with seaweed.

Not all seaweeds are omnipotent, and while they have strengths, they can also be a little lacking, so it's interesting to use seaweeds to help each other.
