I've been fermenting mirin almost a year now. This is informative video about mirin.Hope you like this.
Ingredients
Shochu 35%　1200cc
rice koji 600g
glutinous rice 640g
※ When you cook glutinous rice, cook them with 4 tbsp of sake and less water to cook hard
※ I added 2% of salt not to be illegal, but Hon mirin/pure mirin doesn't need to add salt.

It actually should not be forbidden. Usually in most countries even fermenting alcohol for home use is allowed. Just the concentration (distilling) is outlawed as well as the commercial production. However for mirin it is different as it uses already an alcoholic base. You don’t produce alcohol but you are using the alcohol to do something different. Hence there is no alcoholic fermentation (just a convention of starches) - and it should be absolutely legal!

Tq for sharing i wonder what u do with the leftover sweet rice

@dukenegju 7 месяцев назад

Interesting, thank you! How much alcohol content does the end result have - or does it somehow increase or decrease its alcohol content :) ? And ist there any version to have some kind of alcohol-free mirin? Love

@radwanghazimoumeh 6 месяцев назад

You are amazing. Thank you! One quick question, after tou pass it through the cloth and jar it, do you store it in the fridge or keep it at room temperature in the shade?

Awesome video! What is the ratio for water to sake I should use for steaming the rice? And should I use the shochu for steaming the rice? Or regular sake? Thank You!

Hello Takoshiho-san, thank you for this video! When you continue to age the mirin, do you age it in the refrigerator or continue to age at room temperature? ありがとうございます

@TakoshihoCooksJapan Год назад

I just leave it at room temp and it looks okay!

It looks so much tastier than the store brought one and so simple to make ! I will try to do it too, once I found koji ^^" But what do you do with the rice ? Can you reuse it for making another batch of mirin ? or make something else from it ?

@TakoshihoCooksJapan Год назад

Thank you for watching! We use the leftover rice without wasting as marinade of fish and meat before grilling, one of the ingredients for creamy miso soup, pickling vegetables, and so on!

@hey19302 Год назад

Hi, thank you for the video! What kind of shochu did you use? What kind for rice koji and glutinous rice? I want to try making it the same as the video (^-^)

@hey19302 Год назад

I tried looking for the shochu but not sure if its 35% alcohol or over 35 proof

@TakoshihoCooksJapan Год назад

@@hey19302 Sorry for the late reply. Where do you live? I live in Japan and got the ingredients in Japan, so I don't think you cannot get the exact same products if you live outside of Japan. I'll try to find the similar products depending on where you live.

I have a store bought bottle of Mirin from the store. I am scared to use it because it has sat in my pantry for atleast 3 years. Do you think that Mirin goes bad after a while? I checked the bottle and I don't see a shelf life date on it. So I was going to throw it away. What do you think?

@TakoshihoCooksJapan 10 месяцев назад

The normal expiring date of mirin here inJapan is one and a half year. If it opened, you need to throw it away. If it's unopened one, and the taste and look fine, it might be okay to use I guess.

Can I use regular rice instead of glutinous rice

@TakoshihoCooksJapan Год назад

Unfortunately, you need glutinous rice wihch has more starch to make mirin sweeter. You might be able to make with normal rice, but the result shouldn't be sweet enough. Hope you can find one!

Can i use sake to make mirin?

@TakoshihoCooksJapan Год назад

I don't think you cannot use sake to make mirin. Hope you can find Shochu instead.

@Ty-rs6lk Год назад

Thank you so much for posting! I've been looking for a good tutorial on how to make mirin for some time now. Where I live we do not have access to Hon Mirin or Shochu - Would you suggest using vodka as a substitute? Also, I noticed in your instructions you state to add sake to the water for steaming the rice? Is this accurate? May I ask also why adding salt makes it not illegal? Is it no longer considered alcohol? Thank you for any time spent answering!

@TakoshihoCooksJapan Год назад

Glad you found this video and enjoyed watching it! I totally agree to use vodka for substitute for Shochu. You can choose one which has a pretty neutral flavor. You don't have to add sake to the water for steaming. If you add it, the final flavor might become a bit better. Yeah, in Japan, making sake at home is illigal. So if I add some salt, it won't be considered as alcohol. Let me know if you have any other questions! Hope your mirin will come out well in the future.
