Tsukemono
are Japanese preserved vegetables (usually pickled in salt, brine, or a bed of rice bran). They are served with rice as an '' okazu'' (side dish), with drinks as an '' otsumami'' (snack), as an accompaniment to or garnish for meals, and as a course in the kaiseki portion of a Japanese tea ceremony. Alternative names Tsukemono are also referred to as , , or , all carrying the meaning of "fragrant dish" in Japanese. The ''ko'' or portion in these names means "fragrant", and the term was used as a '' nyōbō kotoba'' or "woman's word" for miso in reference to the smell. Over time, this term was also applied to pickles, again for the smell. ''Oshinko'' ("fresh fragrance") more specifically referred to vegetables that had been only lightly pickled and that had not yet changed color very much. The term is now also used more broadly to refer to pickles in general. Making tsukemono To make tsukemono, one needs a container, salt, and something to apply downward pressur ...

Nukazuke
is a type of traditional Japanese preserved food, made by fermenting vegetables in rice bran (nuka), developed in the 17th century. Almost any vegetable may be preserved using this technique, although some common varieties include celery, eggplants, daikon, cabbage, carrots, and cucumbers. The taste of nukazuke can vary from pleasantly tangy to very sour, salty and pungent, depending on the methods and recipe used or region, usually with a crispy, crunchy texture. Less common are fish nukazuke, found in the north part of Japan, using sardine, mackerel, puffer fish roe, or Japanese horse mackerel. Pickles are an important part of Japanese diet, often eaten at the end of a meal and are said to aid in digestion. The lactic acid bacteria in nukazuke are probiotics that aid the intestinal flora. These bacteria are also responsible for producing folate and vitamin B12 in nukazuke. Further, since nukazuke absorb nutrients from the rice bran, they are high in vitamin B1, whi ...

Pickling
Pickling is the process of food preservation, preserving or extending the shelf life of food by either Anaerobic organism, anaerobic fermentation (food), fermentation in brine or immersion in vinegar. The pickling procedure typically affects the food's texture and flavor. The resulting food is called a ''pickle'', or, if named, the name is prefaced with the word "pickled". Foods that are pickled include vegetables, fruits, mushrooms, meats, fish, dairy and eggs. Pickling solutions are typically highly acidic, with a pH of 4.6 or lower, and high in salt, preventing Enzyme, enzymes from working and micro-organisms from multiplying. Pickling can preserve Decomposition, perishable foods for months, or in some cases years. Antimicrobial herbs and spices, such as mustard seed, garlic, cinnamon or cloves, are often added. If the food contains sufficient moisture, a pickling brine may be produced simply by adding dry salt. For example, sauerkraut and Korean kimchi are produced by salti ...

Sakana
In Japan, it is customary to serve alcoholic drinks with snacks called , , or . These are usually quite salty and served in relatively small portions. Sakana are usually more substantial than tapas, although they are not considered a meal since they are not accompanied by rice. Traditionally, the Japanese regarded sake, which is made from rice, as a substitute for white rice served in a standard Japanese meal, and as a result some Japanese do not eat rice and drink alcohol simultaneously. Sakana are served in drinking establishments known as izakaya. When first seated in an izakaya, an ''otōshi'' (お通し) or appetizer is placed on the table before any drinks are ordered. The ''otōshi'' is charged to the customer as a type of cover charge. Common otoshi include cabbage salad (often refilled free of charge), Japanese-style potato salad, tsukemono, and shiokara. Sakana are ordered throughout the time one is drinking and come to the table a few at a time. It is common t ...

Asazuke
(literally: ''shallow pickle'') is a Japanese pickling method characterized by its short preparation time. The name implies a food pickled in the morning and ready by the evening. The word ''asazuke'' can also refer to the items pickled in this manner. Asazuke is a sub-category of tsukemono, which includes all types of pickles. Asazuke has become a very popular method of pickling in Japanese households due to its ease of preparation. Preparation Because of its short preparation time, asazuke generally lacks the pungency created by other, more lengthy pickling methods but retains more of the fresh taste of the vegetable. Commonly used vegetables include daikon, hakusai, cucumbers, or eggplant.{{Cite book, last1=Sugimoto, first1=Takashi, url=https://books.google.com/books?id=ppjTAgAAQBAJ&dq=Asazuke&pg=PT490, title=Shunju: New Japanese Cuisine, last2=Iwatate, first2=Marcia, date=2013-01-15, publisher=Tuttle Publishing, isbn=978-1-4629-0714-4, language=en Kimuchi, much like the sim ...

Sake Kasu
or sake lees are the pressed Lees (fermentation), lees left from the production of sake (Japanese rice wine). It is a white paste used in cooking. Its taste is fruity and similar to sake. A by-product of Japanese sake production, it typically contains 8% alcohol, has high nutritional value, and might have health benefits. Sake Kasu is used as a Marination, marinade for Japanese dishes based on fish, vegetables, and meat, and contributes an umami flavor to the dish. Sake kasu is also found in cosmetics and skincare products. Sake kasu is considered as a part of the Japanese Mottainai, “no waste” culture since the waste of the sake production is used in various ways. Mirin, a type of sweet Japanese sake, can also produce kasu called mirin kasu. Similar to sake kasu, mirin kasu can also be used as a healthy food ingredient. Process Sake kasu is created during the sake brewing process. When Aspergillus_oryzae, koji, a type of fungus used for sake brewing, is added to steamed ...

Lees (fermentation)
Lees are deposits of dead yeast or residual yeast and other particles that precipitate, or are carried by the action of " fining", to the bottom of a vat of wine after fermentation and aging. The same while brewing beer at a brewery is known as trub – the same from secondary fermentation of wine and beer are the lees or equally, as to beer only, dregs. This material is the source for most commercial tartaric acid, which is used in cooking and in organic chemistry. The term in English derives from Middle English ''lie'', from Anglo-French, from Medieval Latin ''lia.'' Webster's Third International Dictionary shows from ''lia'', "probably of Celtic origin, akin to Old Irish ''lige'' (bed), Gaulish ''legasit'' (he laid) and Welsh ''llaid'' (mud)." Normally, the wine is transferred to another container (racking), leaving this sediment behind. Some wines (notably Chardonnay, Champagne, and Muscadet) are sometimes aged for a time on the lees (a process known as '' sur lie ...

Sake
Sake, , or saki, also referred to as Japanese rice wine, is an alcoholic beverage of Japanese origin made by fermenting rice that has been polished to remove the bran. Despite the name ''Japanese rice wine'', sake, and indeed any East Asian rice wine (such as huangjiu and cheongju), is produced by a brewing process more akin to that of beer, where starch is converted into sugars that ferment into alcohol, whereas in wine, alcohol is produced by fermenting sugar that is naturally present in fruit, typically grapes. The brewing process for sake differs from the process for beer, where the conversion from starch to sugar and then from sugar to alcohol occurs in two distinct steps. Like other rice wines, when sake is brewed, these conversions occur simultaneously. The alcohol content differs between sake, wine, and beer; while most beer contains 3–9% ABV, wine generally contains 9–16% ABV, and undiluted sake contains 18–20% ABV (although this is often lowered to abou ...
