52USA Premium Shaoxing Cooking Wine 21.64 fl oz — 5-Year Aged Chinese Rice Wine, Umami-Rich for Marinades & Stir-Fries

52USA Premium Shaoxing Cooking Wine is a traditional, 5-year aged Chinese rice wine made for elevating savory Asian cooking with a deep, aromatic umami character.

Made in the style of Zhejiang’s famed Shaoxing vintages, this 21.64 fl oz (640ml) bottle delivers the classic fermented-rice aroma and savory complexity professional kitchens rely on. Crafted from rice, wheat, water and a touch of salt, it’s specifically blended for use in marinades, stir-fries, braises and sauces where a true huangjiu profile is needed.

How does this Shaoxing wine change the flavor of my dishes?

Its aged fermentation brings nutty, caramelized and lightly tangy notes that deepen savory profiles without adding overt sweetness. A splash enhances meat, poultry and vegetable dishes by rounding flavors and introducing a subtle fermented complexity.

• Adds umami and aromatic depth to broths, sauces and gravies
• Balances fatty or rich proteins like pork belly and duck
• Marries well with soy, ginger, garlic and sesame-based seasonings

How should I use 52USA Shaoxing wine in everyday cooking?

Use it as a deglazing liquid, marinade base, or finishing splash. It pairs with quick stir-fries, long-simmered braises and steamed fish to lift and unify flavors without overpowering the dish.

• Marinate proteins for 15–30 minutes before cooking to tenderize and flavor
• Deglaze pans after searing to capture fond and make sauces
• Add a tablespoon to soups or congee for a rounded, savory backbone

What makes this bottle authentic and different from cooking wines sold elsewhere?

This product mirrors the traditional Shaoxing method — rice fermentation and aging — producing a genuine huangjiu profile rather than vinegar-like substitutes. The five-year aging period creates a smoother, more integrated character preferred by chefs and home cooks who want authentic results.

• Fermented from rice with wheat starter, adhering to classic technique
• Five years of aging for refined aroma and mellowed acidity
• Salt balanced for cooking use, not for sipping as a table wine

How do I store and measure it for best results?

Keep the bottle tightly sealed in a cool, dark place; refrigeration after opening prolongs freshness but isn’t required. Because its flavor is concentrated, start with small amounts and adjust to taste to avoid overpowering delicate dishes.

• Store upright, away from direct sunlight and heat
• Use a teaspoon to a tablespoon per serving depending on intensity desired
• Refrigerate after opening for longer shelf stability

Who is this product for? Home cooks aiming for authentic Chinese flavors, professional chefs who demand consistent results, and anyone looking to replace inferior substitutes with a true Shaoxing rice wine will benefit. Ideal for fans of stir-fries, braised dishes, steamed fish, and slow-simmered soups, 52USA Premium Shaoxing Cooking Wine brings provincial Chinese tradition into the modern kitchen, providing reliable depth and character in a 21.64 fl oz (640ml) bottle.
