This popular Japanese spice mixture translates as Japanese ‘seven-flavor or seven-spice mix’, and it’s taste somewhat dominated by the chili, but not overwhelmingly. Used as a table condiment to be sprinkled over steamed rice, soups, noodles, grilled meats, steamed vegetables or fried foods. It adds both heat & flavor to the dishes. It works well with fatty foods such as unagi (broiled eel), tempuras, shabu shabu (small bits of food cooked in rich broth), noodle dishes, and yakitori (grilled dishes).
Ingredients: Red Chili, Black Sesame Seed, Orange Peel, Poppy Seed, Japanese Pepper, Seaweed, Ginger, Crushed Red Pepper.
