2.[Comida Latina COSTA] hot sauce "MASCARAS" / Karasuma Oike

Although he was looking for a hot sauce that would compliment Mexican bar food, he couldn't find any ready-made products that would suit his needs, so the owner, Mr. Kokufu, created his own hot sauce, ``Mascaras.'' It transforms any menu into a delicious and spicy flavor, but the main ingredients are spices and vinegar, and it also has a healthy side because it does not use any chemical seasonings, preservatives, or oils. Let's Hot Sauce if you want some stimulation at home, such as the secret ingredient in curry!

3.[Yamamoto Honke] roasted sake/Fushimi

Yamamoto Honke is a long-established sake brewery in Fushimi that has revived the seasonings and roasted sake that were used from the Muromachi to Edo periods. Roasted sake is made by combining sake with umeboshi, kelp, and bonito flakes, which brings out the natural flavors of the ingredients while keeping the salt content low. We use Junmai Daiginjo for roasted sake. In commercializing it, we worked together with Mr. Atsushi Middle East, the owner of [so/s/kawahigashi]. Put it in aemono or use it as a salad dressing. It seems that the flavor will increase just by adding roasted sake.
