YUZUYA Aka Oroshi 90g

Crafted by the renowned Yuzuya Honten in Yamaguchi Prefecture, Japan, Aka Oroshi (赤おろし) is a refined spicy seasoning prized for its pure, vibrant heat and remarkable versatility. Made simply from fresh red chillies and salt, this traditional condiment delivers a clean, lingering warmth that enhances rather than overwhelms the natural flavours of a dish. Free from preservatives and artificial colouring, it embodies Yuzuya's philosophy of creating seasonings that celebrate the integrity of carefully selected ingredients.

Characteristics

Aka Oroshi offers a bright, vivid spiciness with a smooth texture and balanced flavour. Originally inspired by the Japanese tradition of momiji oroshi (spicy grated daikon), it provides a convenient way to introduce elegant heat and depth to a wide range of dishes. Its refined flavour profile has made it a favourite among discerning home cooks as well as professional restaurants and traditional kaiseki establishments in Japan.

Scope of Use

A small amount of Aka Oroshi brings complexity and gentle heat to numerous dishes:

• Hot pots and nabe dishes
• Grilled meats and seafood
• Tempura and fried foods
• Sashimi and carpaccio
• Udon, soba and ramen
• Dumpling dipping sauces
• Dressings, mayonnaise and ponzu sauces
• Marinades and contemporary fusion cuisine

It can also be blended with freshly grated daikon to create authentic momiji oroshi, a classic accompaniment to many Japanese dishes.
