Sake vessels
A bowl-shaped sake cup is recommended to bring out the sake's umami and sweetness. Earthenware and porcelain cups match well, too.
Food pairing
Pairs well with umami-filled ingredients, like lean sashimi, sesame oil-marinated chicken liver, buckwheat noodles, and sticky dishes made with nagaimo (Japanese mountain yam), okra, or natto (fermented soybeans).
