Our Products

  • Homemade Soy-sauce

    Experience the difference with our custom soy sauce, crafted for a rich and nuanced flavor profile. Our secret recipe includes Kombu, Mirin, Sake, and a splash of Lime, resulting in a uniquely delicious enhancement to your sushi experience.

  • Real wasabi

    Did you know it takes around 2 years for wasabi roots to fully mature? We are the only sushi takeout in The Netherlands that uses real wasabi for our dishes! This offers a subtle, aromatic spiciness without the overpowering taste of fake wasabi powder, which can mask the delicate flavors of fish. And it ensures a perfect harmony of flavors in every bite.

  • homemade ginger

    At Sushi Ikigai, we clean, cut, and cook our ginger to get a more delicate flavor compared to factory-produced ginger, which can often be overpowering. Each batch of ginger is marinated for a minimum of 7 days in our special kombu vinegar, enhancing it with maximum umami. The result? A ginger that perfectly complements your sushi experience, without overwhelming your palate.

  • Japanese Sake

    At Ikigai you only find premium sake.

SUSHI AND SAKE PAIRING

Experience the perfect harmony of flavors with our premium sake, a traditional Japanese fermented alcoholic beverage crafted with rice, water, koji, and yeast. Our sake pairs exceptionally well with rice dishes, enhancing the delicate flavors of sushi and other rice-based delicacies. Its subtle hints of rice, fruit, and flowers perfectly complement the neutral taste of rice, while the smooth texture of sake complements the softness of rice. Plus, the rice starch in sake helps balance its acidity, ensuring a truly harmonious dining experience. Discover why sake and sushi are a classic combination in Japan with our exquisite selection of sake.

We advice to drink our Sake chilled.
