Of course, it thickens the starches in the wine from the rice but I find that it does NOT affect the taste.<br /><br />I suppose it is possible to pasteurize the newly harvested wine instead but as I don't have a suitable thermometer to measure the temperature exactly, I find it easier to just bring the wine to boiling point. <br /><br />After boiling, I store in the wine in the fridge. It has kept for months.<br /><br />One other tip, keep stirring the wine and controlling the temperature while boiling. If the fire is too high at boiling point the wine might suddenly boil over.<br /><br />I do NOT add salt to my wine.lyliannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1304437690959603870.post-85793609326537387742010-06-22T01:17:53.142+08:002010-06-22T01:17:53.142+08:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12566553940517787496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1304437690959603870.post-69476979547449251742010-01-31T03:38:42.232+08:002010-01-31T03:38:42.232+08:00Hello, I was just stopping by and wanted to say I ...Hello, I was just stopping by and wanted to say I really enjoyed this post. I'm a Peace Corps Volunteer from the States serving in Guyana, South America and one of the local beverages made here is rice wine. I've had saki before, but this isn't really like that - it's not clear, and it's varying degrees of sweet and dry. I became intrigued and eventually tried it out myself, using a plastic bucket, raw rice, sugar and water. The results have been inconsistent, but enjoyable and I came online to learn more about the fermentation process.<br /><br />It was very enjoyable to read your post; I loved hearing about different traditions in relation to rice wine - and the idea of cooking with it is even more exciting!

We couldn't find any drinking-quality Chinese Rice Wine in our state (Oregon) so we began importing it ourselves. You can buy it at our website:<br />ChineseRiceWine.com. I strongly recommend not using the nasty stuff at most grocery stores as they are filled with salt (as much as 15%!), and use wine that has been matured less than 1 year.

Can't wait to try some of your recipes!<BR/><BR/>Thanks for your good advice. This is my second baby - a girl who's caused me to stay on bed rest for over 3 months already. When I had my son 2.5 yrs ago, my mom was able to bring a few bottles of unseasoned rice wine from California for my post-partum nutrition. However, now no one's allowed to fly with liquids anymore. <BR/><BR/>I wonder if it has something to do with NY State liquor laws, that wines sold in grocery stores must be salted to prevent alcoholics from chugging them down??? The local liquors stores haven't been helpful either; most have Japanese sake, but no one seems to carry Chinese rice wine of any kind.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1304437690959603870.post-74204636804720506082008-06-21T11:12:00.000+08:002008-06-21T11:12:00.000+08:00eleeny: hi, welcome!i get more US readers than any...eleeny: hi, welcome!i get more US readers than any other (strange...did u get here thru google search?) n i love it when i get comments frm anyone. <BR/><BR/>our rice wine here r all salt-free. have u tried to ask the asian grocers? hey, congrats, is this no 1? nothing like having ur own mom to fuss over u, so appreciate her pls. n rember not to carry anything heavy--ur womb has been extended for 10 months n need time to grow back into place again. n DO NOT to wash with cold water, even if just washing hands. u'll get rheumatism early if u do.n i mean this: enjoy every minute of the birthing experience (good to write it down so ur child can read it; they love to listen to stories about their own early development) bc really it is a very special experience :)))*hugs*Terri @ A Daily Obsessionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00220600890256142215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1304437690959603870.post-64425201698273514832008-06-21T01:50:00.000+08:002008-06-21T01:50:00.000+08:00Great recipes.
