About Japanese chilli flakes

Japanese Chilli Flakes, known as "Togarashi," are a vibrant spice made from finely ground dried red peppers. Originating from Japan, these flakes are a staple in Japanese cuisine, often sprinkled over soups, grilled meats, noodles, or rice bowls to enhance flavor with a fiery kick. Though typically made from pure chili peppers, some blends may include sesame seeds, dried orange peel, or seaweed for added depth. Rich in capsaicin, the natural compound responsible for their heat, they may support metabolism and circulation. Additionally, they are low in calories and free from additives, making them a clean option for seasoning. However, their intense spiciness might not be suitable for individuals with sensitive stomachs or digestive conditions. With their bold taste and subtle health benefits, Japanese Chilli Flakes are an excellent way to add zest and complexity to your meals.
