Ume & Seaweed Dashi Ochazuke (Japanese Plum & Seaweed Tea Over Rice) Seasoning
Highlights Umami rich Simple and satisfying Variety of textures Tangy flavor Ochazuke is composed of steamed rice covered in tea or dashi (umami-rich broth) with an assortment of savory ingredients. The base flavors for this ochazuke seasoning come from the dashi and matcha granules, giving the broth a mellow earthiness. Dried umeboshi adds a hint of tart tanginess while konbu (kelp), wakame seaweed and nori (roasted seaweed) impart a pleasant umami flavor. Arare (glutinous rice cracker pieces) add an exciting bit of texture in contrast to the soft tea-steeped rice.
