Fuji Sushi Vinegar by Iio Jozo

By 120+ year-old Brewery in Miyazu, Kyoto

Fuji Sushi Vinegar by Iio Jozo

TO-118

Regular price $ 21.00 Sale

Iio Jozo is a 120+ year old vinegar producer located on the Sea of Japan near the town of Miyazu in Kyoto Prefecture. It produces what is arguably the highest quality rice vinegar in Japan by controlling the process from start to finish and sticking to traditional production methods.

This Sushi Vinegar ("sushi-zu" in Japanese) is a ready-to use special blend by Iio Jozo, made from their pure rice vinegar, brown sugar from Tanegashima Island, wildflower honey from Argentina, and Australian sea salt processed in Hyogo prefecture. Just by tasting on its own (you can try a small spoonful), you can taste how special this blend is and expand your ideas of cooking variations with this Sushi Vinegar.

For every 1 rice-cup (3/4 US cup or 180 ml) or rice (the measurement is the dry matter before cooking), as soon as the rice is ready (after resting 20 min after turning off the heat), add about 2 tablespoons (30 ml) of this Sushi Vinegar and fluff quickly and throughly.

Comments by Naoko
"This is a great multi-purpose rice vinegar blend, not only great for seasoning rice for sushi, but also for a variety of dishes. My go-to way is mixing the equal amount of Sushi Vinegar and extra-virgin olive oil (plus a dash of sesame oil, sometimes) to make a quick vinaigrette for my salad. I also drizzle this Sushi Vinegar straight to grilled vegetables and fish. Another way is using it straight as a dipping sauce for gyoza and other dumplings. So many ways to use this!"
