| | Japanese rice |
| | Rice wine is commonly known as sake, which is actually the general term for "alcohol" in Japanese. | | | Rice flour is used in various Japanese sweets (wagashi) and rice crackers (sembei). | | | Its fundamental importance to the country and its culture is reflected by the facts that rice was once used as a currency, and that the Japanese word for cooked rice (gohan) has also the general meaning of "meal". |

| | Flavor Profiles--Rice wine |
| | Sake or Japanese rice wines are acceptable substitutes, as is a very high-quality dry sherry (dry, Fino, or Manzanilla, but not cream sherry). | | | Also known as Mirin, this supple golden liquid is essential to the Japanese cook; it adds a vibrant note of sweetness to any number of rice dishes, sauces, and meat marinades. | | | But while drier sake is used for both drinking and cooking, rice wine is used only as an ingredient in other dishes. |
