Ochazuke is a simple yet comforting Japanese dish that combines rice, savory toppings, and hot tea or dashi broth. Traditionally made with white rice, it is topped with ingredients such as pickled plums (umeboshi), salted salmon, seaweed, sesame seeds, and wasabi. The dish is then finished by pouring green tea, genmaicha, or a light fish-based dashi over the top. Ochazuke is a light and easily digestible dish, making it popular as a late-night snack or a quick, wholesome meal. Its base of green tea is rich in antioxidants, promoting heart health and reducing inflammation, while the added toppings provide vitamins, minerals, and proteins. However, it can be high in sodium depending on ingredient choices like umeboshi or salted fish. Ochazuke reflects the simplicity of Japanese cuisine, offering both nourishment and comfort with minimal preparation.
