Sake-Pairing Japanese Pancakes & Katsuyama Lei

Das passende Pairing Katsuyama Lei

The Katsuyama “Lei” has a slight sweetness and can be supplemented with a dessert of the same sweetness. The yeasty and tangy flavors also ask for baking seasoning and batter on the plate. Hence pancakes with ginger-infused honey. Fruit and “ripeness” are mirrored by the plums as compote. The dark chocolate ring offers a complementary combination to the maraschino cherry aromas of the sake. The lactic mouthfeel of the sake is also used here, with the creamy rice pudding.

勝山 Katsuyama Lei

This sake was composed as a pairing to French cuisine. Its delicate Umami and fine sweetness harmonize exceptionally well with raw ham, cheese and desserts.
