First, you might wonder, “what is Black Mirin?”
Black Mirin is the rare mirin that has been aged for 20 years, resulting in an ultimate rich taste of amino acid (umami) flavor and elegant sweetness you can’t taste in regular mirin. This premium seasoning is made from glutinous rice, rice, koji, and sea salt. The yellowish color of regular mirin is nowhere to be found in Black Mirin because it has turned into a blackish liquid full of richness.
Like regular mirin, Black Mirin is also delicious for savory dishes like Yakitori, Teriyaki, Tempura Sauce, or Simmered Eggplant. But due to its unique flavor, it’s surprisingly good to use for making desserts.
On this page, we will share the dessert recipe of Black Mirin with milk. The taste resembles a sweet premium cocktail.
