Where can I get inexpensive sake?
-
I always see these Japanese food recipes that make really good dishes, but they always require sake either to boil or simmer with. Problem is, the only sake I see (at NTUC and sushi bars) costs a hefty penny for a small bottle and I can't bring myself to boil it all away in stock or stew. It's good for drinking, but I think it'll be too costly to purchase two bottles just to make a stew in a meal. Anyone knows where to buy "cooking sake" that is not so expensive?

I think they wouldn't use the NTUC kind of sake, very exp and they need like two bottles to make us one meal. Think they kui ben if they did that lol. ._. So I asking if anyone knows what kind of sake they use or where to get inexpensive cooking sake.Originally posted by FireIce:wat waste?

If I wanted to eat chicken rice, I would say so right? You think $14 worth of sake for a bowl of pork ribs stew not waste ah? You think money grow on trees, isit? It's not cheapo or not, it's stupid or not, I'm not like you so damn wasteful -no matter how much money I have: Waste is still waste. Furthermore, if you know about sake, you would know that it's aromatic compounds are boiled off when cooked. Bottled sake is usually the more aromatic kind, the first batch of the yield. I don't think even restaurants so wasteful, go purchase first batch sake to cook. Eh, just a hint of advice la, if you don't know what people want then go away la. Don't go around threads trolling. Best you keep silent and not act like a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt, kay? -
