Higashimaru Matsutake Mushroom Zosui Rice Porridge base, 2 pieces x 8g

Discover the subtle taste of traditional Japanese cuisine with Higashimaru’s Zosui base, enriched with the aroma of exceptional matsutake mushrooms – prized in Japan for their deep, forest-like fragrance and delicate umami sweetness.

What is Zosui?

Zosui (雑炊) is a light, comforting rice dish in the form of a delicate “rice soup.” It is prepared with broth, cooked rice, and vegetables, sometimes with pieces of meat or seafood. Japanese people often enjoy it in winter or during recovery from illness – it is easy to digest, yet soothing and wonderfully aromatic.

Why choose this base?

• Authentic taste of Japan – a recipe created by Higashimaru, a brand renowned for high-quality seasonings and soup bases.

• Matsutake aroma – these mushrooms are rare and considered a delicacy in Japanese cuisine, giving the broth refined depth.

• Easy to prepare – each sachet (8 g) is a portion of seasoning base that only needs to be dissolved in water and combined with rice.

• Versatile – add your favorite ingredients: carrot, spring onion, chicken, shrimp, or egg to create your own version of Zosui.

How to prepare:

1. Pour about 300 ml of water into a small pot and bring to a boil.

2. Add the contents of one sachet and stir.

3. Add 1 portion of cooked rice (approx. 150 g) and your chosen ingredients.

4. Simmer gently until the flavors blend together.

The result? A delicate, umami-rich dish that will transport you straight to a Japanese home.
