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
It pairs well with dishes that use red miso (one of Aichi prefecture's representative seasonings), like miso-simmered udon and miso oden (a type of hot pot with miso broth). It can also be a great companion for sweet-and-savory dishes, like nimono (stew) and kinpira (braised carrot and burdock root).
