Shichimi togarashi

Ingredients

• Peel of 1 orange, cut into thick strips without the white flesh. (Alternatively, you can buy pre-dried orange peel, which is often available in Asian food stores)
• 2 tablespoons chili flakes
• 2 tablespoons mixed sesame seeds
• 2 teaspoons ground ginger
• 1 teaspoons poppy seeds
• ½ teaspoon ground white pepper
• 1 sheet nori (dried seaweed), roughly chopped

Method

1. Preheat oven to 275°F
2. Line a baking tray with baking parchment and lay the strips of orange peel on top. Bake for 45-60 minutes, or until the peel has completely dried out. Then finely chop.
3. Using the BLACK+DECKER® kitchen wand™ Spice grinder attachment, add the dried orange peel and the remaining ingredients and grind until it resembles fine flakes.
4. Store in an airtight jar in a cool place for up to 6 months.
