Yawataya Isogoro Togarashi Spices Assortment

If you go to Nagano in the central part of Japan and visit its famous (and enormous) temple Zenkoji, you'll see very close to the temple's gate a shop with two big chili peppers hanging at its door: this is the main store of Yawataya Isogoro, Japan's most famous maker of spices and has been there since 1736. The shop's main product is Shichimi Togarashi, a blend of seven spices with chili pepper as the base note. In the Yawataya Isogoro Togarashi Spices Assortment, you get to try it – and more!

Yawataya Isogoro wants to broaden your horizons when it comes to taste, which is why they have included five other spices besides their flagship Shichimi Togarashi. You get a can of Roasted Ichimi, a bottle of Shichimi Stir-fry Oil, a bottle of Shichimi Ponzu, a bag of Shichimi Sesame, and a bag of Shichimi Spicy Miso, all guaranteed to give your dishes the famous shichimi sting, but each with an extra flavor. Try them all – and not just in Japanese dishes: these spices can add a different dimension to almost anything you can think of!
