Sake 101 – The Art of Pairing Sake


Listen Later

We are continuing our Sake 101 series with a dive into sake pairing. Cindy Bissig sits down with Chris Hughes to discuss why sake is one of the best beverages to pair with food. They examine just how versatile and exciting sake can be, and spoiler alert – Sake does not just pair wonderfully with Japanese food, it also has the power to transform dishes from all around the world.

Chris explains how sake isn’t just to be paired with sushi (!) it can enhance flavors across a wide range of global dishes and can really be a game-changer at the dinner table. From umami-rich pairings to surprising combinations with Western and international foods, they uncover what makes sake such a fantastic choice at the dining table.

Chris also shares his top tips and tricks for achieving the perfect food and sake pairing and he talks about some of his most memorable pairing experiences.
