Have You Heard Of Japanese Rice Seasoning: “Furikake” ?
“Furikake" is a beloved Japanese seasoning that was originally invented by a pharmacist named Suekichi Yoshimaru. Yoshimaru created a savoury mixture of dried ground fish, seeds, and seaweed, as a handy and tasty way to add calcium to a dish.
The name of “furikake" literally means “sprinkled over,” and its concentrated umami-rich flavor makes it well suited for topping with rice. It can also serve as seasoning for onigiri (rice balls) – all you need to do is mix it with warm rice evenly before molding it into the shape you want. The concept took off, and furikake these days is a huge industry, adored for its ability to transform a bowl of plain rice into something completely delicious.
Furikake rice seasoning is also a common feature in a bento lunch box, either already sprinkled onto the bed of rice that makes up a large part of most bento lunches, or kept in a separate little furikake shaker for the bento eater to sprinkle on themselves.
Today we’d like to introduce you Kyoto Chili Oil Sprinkle 10 Packs Set, a ra-yu (chili oil) based furikake (rice seasoning) made with Kyoto-grown “Kujo green onions”. The umami and spiciness of the ra-yu (chili oil) is soaked into the roasted sesame, and the juice of green onions spreads in your mouth with every bite.

Sprinkled on Rice
The word ‘furikake’ literally means ‘sprinkle over’. As such, the most well-known and accepted way of using furikake is to tear open a sachet and sprinkle it over a serving of rice, whether that be hot, steamed rice fresh from the rice cooker/saucepan, cold rice from the night before, or rice that is going into a bento box for lunch.
Flavouring Popcorn
Instead of just adding salt or butter to popcorn, why not try something a little different and flavour your popcorn with furikake? Simply open up a bag of freshly microwaved popcorn, shake in your desired amount of furikake, close the bag back up, and shake well to mix the furikake in.
As Pasta Garnish
Rice is not the only food staple that can benefit from a touch of furikake. Try sprinkling a chili oil furikake on freshly cooked pasta. Like Japonica rice, pasta is slightly sticky, especially when freshly cooked, so the furikake will stick to it and make a serving of plain pasta into a great-tasting snack or light meal.
