This product is carefully aged for more than 3 years and is created through a process entirely different from that of ordinary vinegar, made by fermenting rice or wheat.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe sake lees, fermented over a long period, take on a reddish colour due to the action of yeasts and kōji (rice mould). The 'Akasu' vinegar therefore takes its name from its colour, 'aka' meaning red in Japanese. Taking a long time to produce, the sake lees become increasingly supple, the proteins are transformed into amino acids and peptides, and the starch breaks down into sugar and organic acid, which are the very essence of the finest sake production.\u003cbr\u003e\nWhen sushi rice is prepared with red vinegar, each bite brings out a deep umami flavour that enhances the sushi toppings. Its rich, full-bodied character creates a distinct difference you can taste with every bite.\u003cbr\u003e\nRed vinegar contributed to the popularity of sushi during the Edo period. This seasoning enhances the flavour of traditional Edomae sushi and brings the authentic taste of genuine Edomae sushi to your home.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"NISHIKIDORI 2026","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54165447803213,"sku":"NISTYT020","price":17.54,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.nishikidori.com\/en\/products\/akasu-red-vinegar-sushi-seasoning-1800-ml","provider":"Nishikidori","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
