Nitto Jozo’s Vegetarian Shirodashi starts with a base of their White Tamari, which is made up of only wheat, salt and water. Then Ninagawa-san skillfully incorporates shiitake, dried daikon radish, rice vinegar, sea salt, mirin and Ma Konbu. The dried daikon and rice vinegar give this a wonderful funkiness. This condiment is meant for finishing, meaning when you just want to add a burst of flavor at the end of preparing dishes like soups, dressings, etc. The president of Nitto Jozo, Ninagawa-san says this is super delicious over steamed or boiled vegetables. It also works great when making rolled omelets (like our Dashi Maki Tamago recipe).
Refrigerate after opening.

When we started selling to restaurants way back when, chefs often asked if we carried Shirodashi. Truthfully, I had never really used it before, but when I tried Nitto Jozo’s version I was hooked. It has become a mainstay in my pantry.

A truly elegant tasting experience is Suehiro's double brewed soy sauce (saishikomi). To make double brewed soy sauce, first Suehiro makes a 'regular' batch using soybeans, wheat, salt, water & koji. They then brew another batch of soy sauce, except this time Suehiro omits the salt and water and instead uses the first batch of soy sauce. This produces a soy sauce with a deeper, softer flavor and more viscous texture than regular soy sauce. It is also surprisingly less salty than regular soy sauce. Great for dipping your fish, double brewed soy sauce can also be used to make an amazing ice cream - yes, ice cream (think salty caramel...here's the recipe).
Produced from only Japanese-grown soybeans, wheat and natural sea salt.
Please refrigerate after opening.

Yamasei's mustard powder is made from stone ground organic Barukan (Vulcan in English) mustard seeds. As you might gather from the Oni (Demon) on the packaging, this karashi is very spicy yet still has the most mustardy taste. To retain the mustard flavor, Yamasei takes great care when removing the oil and grinding the seeds to a paste. Spicy karashi mustard is perfect with Pork Belly Kakuni, Japanese Potato Salad and Karashi Cucumbers.
How to use Yamasei's Organic Karashi Mustard Powder
Thoroughly mix 4 parts mustard powder with 5 parts lukewarm water (between 104℉ and 140℉). Allow the mustard paste to rest between 5 and 15 minutes to develop the spicy taste.
- Do NOT use boiling water or cold water.
- If you don't let the mustard rest after mixing, the taste may be bitter.
- After resting, use the mustard paste as soon as possible.

Tsujita-san highlights the aroma and taste of dried yuzu in this shichimi togarashi. While not as spicy as the Tsujita-san's regular shichimi togarashi, it still has a nice bit of heat from the Takanotsume ("Hawk's Claw") peppers. Use this yuzu shichimi togarashi on dishes where you want a citrus-y brightness, such as a corn miso soup or on top of grilled fish. Also goes great on grilled chicken.
Chosen by Tsujita-san himself, the tin is designed to store Yamatsu Tsujita's Yuzu Shichimi Togarashi and for using at the table. To fill, just remove the top, empty the spice pouch into the tin, and replace the top.
