Share
At the end of the day, it's time to relax and enjoy a drink. It's a peaceful moment all to yourself, undisturbed by anyone. Why not add a little more refined color to such a moment than usual?
We would like to introduce you to the delicious combination of gourmet canned Japanese food and alcohol. Open the can and serve in your favorite bowl. Just by doing this, your usual evening drink will be transformed into a spiritually enriching experience, like spending time at a wonderful bar you happened to come across while traveling.
Let us introduce you to three special combinations that will enrich your evening.
A refreshing and clear taste: Red sea bream with yuzu sauce and sake
The first dish we recommend you try is a combination that truly brings together the bounty of Japan's seas and land. The star dish is "Red Sea Bream with Yuzu Sauce," made with red sea bream from Ehime Prefecture. The sauce is made with whole, pesticide-free yuzu citrus fruits, and every time you take a bite, the sweet and sour, refreshing aroma gently spreads throughout your mouth.
This delicate dish is best paired with a refreshing sake. Choosing one with a fruity aroma will bring out the best in each other.
The refreshing flavor of the yuzu blends with the gentle sweetness of the rice in the sake, beautifully bringing together the refined flavor of the red sea bream. You can enjoy the pleasant, clear taste, as if you were cooling off by a clear stream.
Serving it in a cool glass dish or a small pale blue bowl will make it look beautiful and taste even more delicious.
A flavorful and appetizing combination: Sea bream ajillo and shochu
Next up is a flavorful combination that will pleasantly stimulate your appetite. The "Red Sea Bream Ajillo" is a combination of red sea bream, mushrooms, and tomatoes, all blended together in high-quality olive oil. The fragrant aroma of garlic rises from the dish, making it irresistible.
For this flavorful dish, try a shochu with a bit of character. For example, how about a shochu with a clean aroma reminiscent of Japanese spices like sansho pepper?
The richness and flavor of the oil is countered by the crispness of the shochu, making the next sip feel fresh. The aroma of olive oil and the aroma of shochu go surprisingly well together, creating a pleasant depth to the flavor, making for a new and exciting combination.
Serving it on a warm ceramic plate or in a small skillet will create a fun, bar-like atmosphere. Don't forget to serve it with a little bread to savor the flavorful oil to the last drop.
A classic that will definitely satisfy your soul: Wagyu beef with black pepper and beer
If you want to end the day feeling truly satisfied and say, "Wow, that was delicious," then this combination is a must. "Wagyu Black Pepper" is made with luxurious Miyazaki-produced Kuroge Wagyu beef. The rich flavor of the beef and the sweetness of the fat are comfortably complemented by the pungent kick of the black pepper.
The perfect companion to this dish is, of course, a nice cold beer.
As the rich flavor of the Wagyu beef spreads in your mouth, take a sip of beer. The beer's pleasant bitterness and carbonation leave a refreshing aftertaste. Then, you can stuff your face with some delicious Wagyu beef. This happy cycle will help you forget the fatigue of the day and fill your heart with joy.
We recommend serving it on a simple plate without any unnecessary decorations. This will allow the Wagyu beef to stand out and make the perfect accompaniment to beer.
Just having a delicious drink and a dish to go with it can turn an ordinary evening into a slightly more luxurious one. Why not try adding this fun element to your evening drinks tonight?
