Hagi Shiso Wakame
Just by sprinkling it on rice, the scent of the sea and the freshness of shiso gently spread. This is a soft furikake created by Inoue Shoten, a long-established shop in Hagi, and is said to be the first of its kind in Japan. Since ancient times, Hagi has had a custom of making 'kizami wakame' (chopped seaweed) by finely mincing seaweed dried under the eaves of houses and sprinkling it on rice. Development began with the goal of turning this into a souvenir representative of Hagi; it is said that after overcoming many obstacles, it was completed in 1980 after five years of effort. Today, it is known nationwide not only in Hagi but as a representative flavor of Yamaguchi Prefecture. The combination of the umami from the seaweed and the refreshing flavor of red shiso creates a deliciousness that makes it impossible to stop eating. Please try sprinkling it on warm rice at least once.
