About Furikake

Furikake is a versatile Japanese seasoning blend designed to add flavor, texture, and visual appeal to plain rice and other dishes. This dry condiment typically combines ingredients like toasted sesame seeds, nori seaweed flakes, dried fish, sugar, salt, and MSG, creating a perfect umami-rich finishing touch. 

This shelf-stable sprinkle instantly transforms simple meals—scatter it over steamed rice, avocado toast, roasted vegetables, or popcorn for immediate flavor enhancement. While store-bought furikake varieties offer convenience with endless flavor combinations (from salmon to wasabi), making your own furikake allows you to customize ingredients to suit your taste preferences while avoiding preservatives and excess sodium.
