Mirin
Mirin is a sweet Japanese rice wine with a lower alcohol content than sake, used as a seasoning in Japanese cooking to add sweetness, gloss, and depth to sauces, glazes, and marinades. It is a key ingredient in dishes like teriyaki sauce, balancing salty and savoury flavours with its natural sweetness. True mirin differs from mirin-style seasonings, which are often lower in alcohol and sweetened with added sugar.
