Trivia

[For Families] 'Sanbei (Three Cups)' comes from using one cup each of soy, sesame oil, and wine, but achieving a shop-like 'thick gloss' and 'deep richness' via DIY ratios is surprisingly hard. This paste condenses umami, making it foolproof. Bringing it back as a souvenir becomes the ultimate weapon to break out of Japanese dining table ruts.

Eating tips & etiquette

[Unique Eating] When making Taiwanese-style 'Fried Udon', use this Sanbei Jiang for seasoning, top with a fried egg at the end for a junk meal with an irresistible rich sesame oil aroma!
