The Scottish question

Where in Edinburgh sells Teriyaki sauce? Failing that, somewhere central
in Glasgow?

(And yes, I know that we could make it ourselves.)

Peckhams. Or any oriental supermarket. Failing that, I've got a good recipe somewhere if you need it.

Pretty sure there's a shop that does it on the corner of Buccleuch Street & West Crosscauseway. Or there was about six years ago when I lived there.

We could make it ourselves if we had mirin, so anywhere that sells that would be good too. I think there is an asian supermarket in Newington? I used to walk past one each day. I just don't have the time to go out wandering during the week :/

Yeah, the one in Cameron Toll sells it in sachets or bottles.

Also, any asian supermarket - the ones in Tollcross, Leith Walk and Newington should all work.

I can confirm that the Meadowbank one definitely doesn't.

Doh - Andy beaten me to it, my email hadn't updated with the multiple comments.

Have to say I'm surprised. I would have thought that one would have still been big enough to stock it. Oh well.

I know :( I don't know if they just never did, but they seem to have downsized their selection in general since adding women and children's (not men's) clothing.

Actually, I'll be in that area around 3pm tomorrow.

Theres a great Chinese supermarket on West Crosscauseway if you are going near the uni.

Biggish Tescos stock Wagamama's brand teriyaki sauce, which was pretty good.

Our Tesco in Falkirk has some, and it's surprisingly good. Perhaps one in Edinburgh does too?

Tesco definitely do - they also sell Mirin in their 'speciality aisle' also might be worth trying Somerfield in Shandwick Place or Tesco up on Lothian Road in your lunch hour?

Or Tesco at the foot of Easter Road! The Tesco at canonmills definitely sells it and it's much smaller than the one on Easter Road

Sainsbury's and there's a Thai market at Haymarket with a decent Japanese section :)

Try any of the asian stores, or else the big tesco out by hermiston gait. Sainsbury Murrayfield did too sometimes.
