Togarashi Dry Chili With 24k Sea Salt

Adding sea salt to this popular bright red-orange Japanese spice blend makes this even more worthy of being pantry staple! Togarashi means “chiles” in Japanese. This Japanese spice blend is normally sprinkled over Japanese noodle dishes, such as udon and soba. It includes red chili pepper, black pepper, nori, orange peel and sesame seeds, along with sea salt. It is excellent in a Bloody Mary or Caesar. Or try The Red Slapper!
