Das passende Pairing


The reason why more and more people love sake so much is that this alcoholic beverage does not dominate the traditional flavours of many national Japanese dishes, and also of dishes from other countries, but complements them very nicely. And this is also the reason why this sake in particular goes well with the shrimp tempura miso ramen soup. Hatsumago sake is the perfect combination for this umami-based dish, as it brings out the delicate flavours of the food and, with its creaminess, full-bodiedness, spiciness and umami touch, is very pleasant and in good harmony with the miso ramen soup served. Translated, miso roughly means “source of flavour”, which is a taste we call umami. The sake chosen also has an umami touch, and the sake pairing really gives you the feeling that the shrimp tempura miso ramen soup and the Hatsumago sake form a successful, even perfect unit.
