THE STORE-CUPBOARD ESSENTIAL
Crispy Chicken Skin Sambal
Mirin is a chef-owned gem in Edinburgh, offering playful Asian-inspired dishes and low-intervention wines in a relaxed atmosphere. Now, you can enjoy a taste of Mirin at home. Its Crispy Chicken Skin Sambal is an umami powerhouse that takes any dish to the next level. A bold, savoury flavour makes it ideal for adding depth to stews, curries and stir-fries, or tossing through noodles and fried rice for a quick mid-week meal. We also rate it with eggs or as a rich base for a comforting bowl of ramen.
