SHICHIMI TOGARASHI WHOLE FOODS RECIPES

This popular Japanese spice mixture translates as seven-flavor or seven-spice mix. It is sometimes also called Nanami Togarashi. It is used in the kitchen and as a table condiment to flavor soups, noodles and grilled meats. Proportions can be varied. The aroma is of the dried tangerine peel, with a hint of iodine from the nori. The taste is somewhat dominated by the chili, but not overwhelmingly; and the texture is course. This is good stuff.

Seven spice powder, or what is commonly known as shichimi togarashi in Japan, pairs perfectly with grilled meats, noodles and soups. Freshly ground orange peel provides a citrusy aroma, while seaweed adds an oceanic flavor. Freshly ground ginger, black peppercorns, and toasted black & white sesame seeds add layers of flavor to make a complex marinade in this grilled pork tenderloin dish. Pork is by far the most popular type of meat in Japan- consumed nearly as much as chicken and beef combined. But it wasn't always this way. The ban on meat began in the mid sixteenth century and is thought to be due to the rise of Buddhism at the time. This ban lasted over 1,200 years and was lifted in the late 1800's, with the rise of foreign trade among countries.
