Seasoned rice vinegar

Seasoned rice vinegar or "awasezu" (合わせ酢) is a condiment made of sake, sugar and salt. Besides these three necessary ingredients, mirin is also sometimes used (but only rarely). It is used frequently in the Japanese cuisine, where it is used together with Japanese round rice to make kome (or the sticky, sushi rice). Although it can be made at home, prepared "awasezu" can also be readily bought at supermarkets.
