6NOTES Mirin is sweetened sake and is available at some high-end grocery stores. You can substitute 1 tablespoon sherry with 1/2 tablespoon of brown sugar for mirin. If you can not find the mirin and you do not want to purchase the sherry simply add 1/2 -1 tablespoon of brown sugar to sweeten the sauce.
