ちりめん山椒

The sansho pepper gives just the right amount of tingle without overpowering the fish, which makes it perfect for sprinkling over a simple bowl of rice. I've been using it on ochazuke and it adds that instant umami punch I was missing.

The little dried sardines are plump and tender, and the sansho pepper gives just the right tingle without overpowering the fish. I've been sprinkling it over plain rice and it turns a boring meal into something I actually look forward to.

Opened the bag for a quick taste and ended up eating half the jar standing at the counter. The dried sardines are delicate and the sansho pepper gives it a gentle, warm buzz that’s perfect over plain rice.
