‘Shichimi’, literally means ‘seven flavours’, is Japanese Chilli Spice Mix. I often sprinkle it over many dishes for extra spiciness and flavours. Small bottles of Shichimi are available from Asian grocery stores, but I have heard many people can’t find it. Why don’t you make your own blend of Chilli Spice Mix?

Steps

1

Today I used Dried Chilli Flakes, Dried Ginger, Dried Mandarin Orange Rind, Dried Yuzu Rind, Toasted Sesame Seeds.
2

All ingredients must be dry. Using a Suribachi (Japanese mortar) or grinder, grind each ingredient into small flakes, and combine.
3

*Make a small amount.
*Do not grind Toasted Sesame Seeds too much as Oil would come out.
*You need to take extra caution when you grind Dried Chilli.

I started writing my recipes to pass them on to my children. Now I am sharing them with everyone on my website www.hirokoliston.com and Cookpad.

Hello @hirokoliston ! I write a question here as it seems there is no “message” or “contact” facility in cookpad. I have a sansho tree in my garden and now is the time to harvest the leaves. What can I do with them? (Not tsukudani with little fish) I dried the leaves and keep in the jar to sprinkle to salad/fried rice. What else can I do?
