Food Pairings
Food Pairings
Shaoxing Rice Wine is best served slightly warmed to release its unique flavour and aroma.
Pairs well with heavier, meatier dishes, especially those with a touch of sweetness and funk like slow braised beef and chicken dishes. It also brings out spices and umami in seafood like sashimi, BBQ prawns and steamed crabs.
