Das passende Pairing
Sake and dish complement each other on a pleasantly subtle level. The sake accompanies the dish with the necessary complexity, is strong but not too dominant, ideal for a starter. The herbal, earthy notes from both (dish and sake) harmonize the pairing, the sugar peas emphasize the subtly hidden sweetness of the sake. The overall impression is supported by small dabs of egg yolk cream, creating a creamier, full-bodied feeling. The fresh, slightly citric finish of the sake refreshes the palate and prepares it for the next bite, cooked Shimeji mushrooms in turn support the umami notes of the sake. The pairing is strong and complex, exciting and spicy, yet refreshingly light and balanced.
