There is a lot of salt in it
This tea served as a herbal tea for me!
You should be able to got two bottles when I paid that price
In short, yes. They are two different things. There is a distinct flavor to this and it adds a good deal of flavor to the food. This rice wine has less salt than "rice wine" (not rice cooking wine). This brand has one teaspoon of salt. The alcohol is 15% and there is 5% salt. In comparison with Shaoxing rice wine, Mirin is also a rice cooking wine. It has a sweet flavor, unlike Shaoxing rice wine.

We were so glad to finally get hold of this "authentic" shaoxing after years of not being able to find it anywhere. While some varieties contain enough salt to allow them to be sold despite the restrictions on alcoholic beverages, this variety contains a large amount of salt. No matter what you make with this, just leave out the salt and you'll be fine. When you smell and taste the smell and taste of this, it is quite similar to lighter sherry, although it contains a lot of salt. If possible, use sherry instead if you can't, then go with this.
I was a little hesitant to order this online since I was afraid it would break during shipping. In the past, we have just driven to the Asian Market to get this, but when I did not want to make the 2-mile drive It would take me a few hours to go to Amazon, so I decided to order from them. My concerns about the bottles' condition (as well as a free gift) and the fact they were delivered on time were quickly dismissed. That was simply too convenient. In all certainty, I will order again to save myself the trouble of making a long trip. Authentic Chinese taste can be achieved by adding this to our General Tso's Chicken recipe. A very nice Shaoxing Rice Cooking Wine. It came with 3 Packs of Ginger Honey Crystals (for free, which I appreciated), which I thought was very nice.
A recipe I was trying called for this type of rice wine (ShaoXing) as an integral part of the bbq sauce for char siu (Chinese barbecued pork). There was a seller with a 2 bottle pack that cost the same as most other sellers were charging for a single bottle. My order arrived extremely fast, the packaging was impressive, and I received the item The seller is a good seller and I will buy from him.
Having this as a staple in the kitchen has become commonplace for me. Asian foods aren't the only ones that benefit from its wonderful flavors. The simple yet incredible dish of buttery sauteed Bella mushrooms with garlic and your favorite seasonings, cream, and a splash of cooking wine is something you will love for years to come.
Would you like to learn how to cook authentic Chinese food? One of the secret ingredients in the recipe called for this ingredient. We enjoyed a delicious, authentic MooShu with it.
My friend told me this was a China cooking wine. I didn't know it contained wheat in it and was so salty? Do you know what kind of "wine" it is? At the time of purchase, the allergen information for this product was not clear. This is great for poaching chicken and for making other Asian cuisines.
The Chinese cooking wine I use frequently when cooking Asian meals is very popular with me. Although it seems good, it does not seem to be as full-featured as other products Like other brands I've used in the past, this product is as creamy as others. I believe it will end up being just as good as the ones I've experienced.
Yay, two out of three. I was pleased with the price and value for money.
