This shichimi is a blend of seven spices, ideal for adding a spicy, complex flavor to a wide variety of dishes. Tanaka Bussan, a renowned Japanese producer, has created its own blend of togarashi shichimi to offer an authentic culinary experience to Japanese food lovers. This preparation contains red pepper, sesame, sansho (also known as Japanese pepper), yuzu (Japanese citrus), ginger, nori seaweed and poppy seeds. Each of these ingredients contributes to the complex, balanced flavor of the blend, which is also characterized by its moderate heat. Shichimi togarashi is often used to season noodle dishes, fried rice, grilled fish, stir-fried vegetables and soups. It can also be used as a condiment for meat and fish dishes, or as an ingredient in marinades and sauces.
