What are the most common Japanese condiments and spices?
The most popular condiments and spices in Japanese cuisine include soy sauce, miso, mirin and rice vinegar, as well as spices such as wasabi and shichimi togarashi (a blend of seven spices). These ingredients are essential for creating the typical flavors of Japanese cuisine.
What's the difference between wasabi and ginger?

How to prepare a Japanese marinade
For a classic Japanese marinade, mix soy sauce, mirin, cooking sake and a little sugar or miso. This works well for marinating meat or fish before cooking.
