Wasabi
Wasabi is a pungent condiment made from the wasabi plant (wasabia japonica). It gives you a sharp and spicy sensation through sinuses, and it quickly dissipates without leaving a lingering burn like chili. Wasabi is indispensable for Japanese dishes such as Sushi. However, it is extremely versatile and complements any type of dishes.
Spices with Yuzu
Yuzu is a highly fragrant Japanese citrus, with a tart flavor reminiscent of grapefruit with hints of orange blossom. The zest and juice of this versatile fruit are used in our spice varieties. The products give plenty of hot and spicy but they also offer an exquisite balance of sharpness and a refreshing fragrance that complements the flavor of dishes.
