Our Edo Spice Signature Blend combines chilies, citrus, and rare and invigorating sansho pepper from Japan. Edo (rhymes with 'meadow') refers to the historic name of Tokyo, as well as the peaceful period between 1603 and 1868 when Japan underwent a flourishing of its arts and culture. This blend, with its bright, hot flavors and nutty, umami notes is inspired by the traditional Japanese 7 spice (shichimi togarashi), which is believed to have originated during the Edo period. Enjoy this whimsical, dimensional blend simply on top of noodles, rice or veggies, or try making a smashed edamame dip with a bit of garlic and sesame oil to serve as a tasty appetizer with crackers

Tasting Notes Piquant, Tart, Floral, Numbing, and Umami
Pairs Well With Rice, noodles, avocado
