FAQ
- Should I warm Mirin before converting grams to cups?
- Slightly warmer Mirin packs cleanlier into a cup, reducing error. Do not exceed what the recipe tolerates.
- Does room-temperature Mirin measure cleaner than cold?
- Yes — warmer Mirin flows into corners of the measure, fills gaps, and scrapes flush. Cold products cling and leave voids that understate the weight.
