a pinch of salt
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1/2 tablespoon mirin
5g butter
1.5 tablespoons water (for grilled corn)

butter

🥗Healthier: olive oil

💰Cheaper: margarine

Olive oil adds healthy fats and flavor while being lower in saturated fat.

soy sauce

🥗Healthier: low-sodium soy sauce

💰Cheaper: tamari

Low-sodium soy sauce reduces sodium intake without sacrificing flavor.

mirin

🥗Healthier: rice vinegar + sugar

💰Cheaper: white wine

Rice vinegar + sugar mimics the sweetness of mirin at a lower cost.

nori

🥗Healthier: seaweed flakes

💰Cheaper: dried seaweed

Seaweed flakes provide similar umami flavor and are often cheaper.

4

In a pan, heat 1 teaspoon of salad oil and sauté the corn kernels until they are slightly caramelized.

5

Add 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, 1/2 tablespoon of mirin, and 5g of butter to the sautéed corn. Stir well and set aside.
