About Japanese rice crackers

Japanese rice crackers, known as "senbei," are traditional snacks originating from Japan's culinary heritage. Made primarily from glutinous or non-glutinous rice flour, these crackers are crafted through a process of steaming, shaping, and baking or grilling. They come in a variety of flavors—ranging from savory soy sauce to sweet sugar coatings—and textures, including light and crispy or dense and chewy. Senbei are often seasoned with seaweed, sesame seeds, or spices for added flavor. From a nutritional perspective, rice crackers are low in fat and offer a modest source of carbohydrates, making them a quick energy boost. However, their sodium content can be high due to seasoning, and some varieties include added sugars. They are gluten-free, which makes them suitable for those with certain dietary restrictions. While enjoyed as a snack, portion control is key to balancing their health impacts within a diet.
