This is a seasoned soy bean paste-style condiment made from soybeans that have been aged in soy sauce and then mixed with shichimi togarashi - a blend of chili pepper, sansho pepper, sesame seeds, poppy seeds, orange peel, nori, and ginger.

Low-temperature aged Shinshu soybeans are combined with the richly aromatic, deep-flavored shichimi spice from the long-established spice maker “Yawataya Isogoro,” creating a well-balanced seasoning with rich umami and a distinct spicy kick.

It works perfectly as a rice accompaniment, and can also be used as a substitute for soy sauce in stir-fries and mixed dishes.

The deep umami of aged soybeans and the sharp heat of shichimi pepper create an addictive flavor that makes rice irresistible.

Ingredients: Soy sauce-marinated mixture (soybeans, rice koji, soy sauce, sugar, hydrolyzed protein, salt) (domestically produced), shichimi chili pepper / alcohol, flavor enhancers (amino acids, etc.), acidity regulator, vitamin B1, thickening polysaccharides, (contains wheat, soybeans, sesame)
