Recipes and Food Pairings
This is “Drinking Quality” rice wine. But there are no rules that say you can’t cook with it. An article from Saveur.com recommends, “When preparing a Chinese meal, look for real Chinese rice wine—which is richer and darker than sake, rather like a dry sherry—and not the “cooking wine” that’s sold in Asian markets, which is dosed with salt so that it qualifies as a food product, not a wine.” Check out our recipes and food pairings.
