From Yawataya Isogoro, a nearly 200-year-old Japanese company, this premium blend of shichimi togarashi is a flavorful and hot mixed chili seasoning. The complex mixture of spices in this blend includes medium-strength chili peppers, tongue-numbing sansho peppers, ginger, richly flavored yuzu, black sesame, dried orange peel, and shiso (perilla). Blended using a 300-year-old secret recipe, this shichimi exhibits a wonderfully balanced yet complex spicy flavor and aroma.
This versatile spice mix replaces the need for additional salt. Just a small amount adds many levels of spice and flavor to various Japanese dishes. A blend of umami at its finest.
