April's Japanese Inspired Spice Blends:
Spicy Gomasio
This popular Japanese condiment simply consists of toasted black & white sesame seeds, high quality sea salt and a touch of chiles for heat. Frequently sprinkled on rice & salad dishes in Japan, this spice blend can be used anywhere you would typically use salt- and is a very healthy replacement. Add to edamame, sauteed greens, eggs, soba noodles, popcorn or even as a crust for salmon or tofu.
Matcha & Chia
We've included our favorite Japanese green tea powder plus freshly ground toasted chia seeds for whipping up a healthy, antioxidant packed matcha mochi that makes a light, clean and healthy dessert. These incredients pair beautifully together and can be used for cookies, creme brulee or any other Japanese inspired dessert or sweet breakfast dish.
Shichimi Togarashi
Literally translating to "seven flavor chile pepper", this Japanese blend dates back to the 1600's and brings out the clean, simple flavors of Japanese cooking. Chiles & black peppercorns provide heat, while seaweed & orange peel add a complex flavor dimension. Pair with grilled meats, tempuras or sprinkle on top of rice or noodle dishes.
I'm very interested to give these spices a try. RawSpiceBar is great for getting a unique selection of spices and for trying new dishes. Spice blends contain only the spices listed on each blend with no added fillers such as MSG, salt, rice, sugar or flour. Spice blends are also free of contaminants such as dust and pests that can occur in pre-ground spices.
