Osembei, or Japanese rice crackers, are traditional snacks made primarily from glutinous rice or non-glutinous rice flour. Originating in Japan, they come in various shapes, sizes, and flavors, including savory, sweet, and spicy varieties. Osembei are typically baked or grilled, sometimes coated in soy sauce, wrapped in nori (seaweed), or flavored with ingredients like sesame seeds or sugar. As a snack, they are low in fat, making them a lighter alternative compared to fried snacks. However, their sodium content can be high due to the soy sauce glaze, which may not suit low-sodium diets. They are naturally gluten-free if made purely from rice, making them suitable for individuals with gluten sensitivities. Osembei also provide a quick source of energy from carbohydrates but should be enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet due to their simple ingredient profile and potential for added seasonings.
