Jigarashi (lit. "ground karashi") is a unique type of mustard from Fukui Prefecture. Unlike regular karashi, which doesn't include the mustard seed oil, jigarashi includes the whole seed, including the oil and shell. It is then made into a powder using manufacturing methods that haven't changed since the Meiji Era. With a mixture of brown and yellow grains, it has a taste that is sweeter, richer, more fragrant and spicier than normal Japanese mustard, with a hint of bitterness. Here it is combined with an umami-rich miso that has been aged for 9 months.
