Highlights
  • Add a burst of zest and heat to any dish
  • Mellow heat from locally harvested chili peppers
  • Refreshing citrus notes from dried tangerine peel

This versatile spice blend adds heat and tang to any dish! Locally grown chili peppers give the blend its ruby red color and a mellow kick of heat. Dried tangerine peel adds a refreshing tang that cuts through fat while dried seaweed lends the perfect amount of salt and umami.

 

Japan is home to about 50 different species of chili peppers, however, only 3% used are domestic. Yohgado continues to harvest local chili peppers, including kagawa hontaka which was the first variety to come to Japan 400 years ago. Its heat doesn’t tingle, but is mellow and spreads slowly, providing a unique taste and fragrance that can’t be found outside of Japan.

Amazing

I've been using this sichimi over my katsu and tendon bowls and it's amazing. It enhances the flavor of the dish with the perfect amount of fragrance and zest. Highly recommend, although cheap it is not..

Depth of Flavor!

This shichimi togarashi has so many complex flavors! The ingredients list really doesn't seem to describe the delicate interactions this condiment produces. Those Japanese peppers really are something special! There's an element that reminds me of Sichuan peppercorn, almost floral. The heat level is perfect and enhances the experience of the other flavors, instead of covering them up. I was expecting a nice, spicy sprinkle; this blew my mind!
