Wasabi salt is a premium condiment from Japan that combines the spicy punch of authentic wasabi with the rich umami of kombu (dried kelp) and the subtle flavour of sea salt.

The addition of kombu kelp (dried seaweed) enhances the wasabi salt with deep, savoury umami flavours, creating a balanced seasoning with complexity.

High-quality natural sea salt brings out the flavours of the wasabi and kombu, providing a harmonious seasoning blend of salty, spicy and savoury elements.

About Tamaruya

Tamaruya, established in 1875 in Shizuoka prefecture, the heart of Japan’s wasabi-growing region, is known for its high-quality wasabi products. This unique blend adds a burst of flavour to a variety of dishes, making it an essential ingredient for both Japanese and fusion cuisine.

Tamaruya brings the signature pungency and slight sweetness of fresh wasabi (different from the more common horseradish-based paste that is often used in wasabi products), giving dishes an aromatic spice and refreshing heat.

How to use in traditional Japanese dishes

Replace traditional soy sauce and wasabi paste by sprinkling wasabi kombu salt directly on sushi or sashimi. It enhances the flavour of fresh fish without overpowering it.

Wasabi salt is a popular alternative to tempura dipping sauce. A light dusting on crispy fried tempura adds a punch of flavour and colour without the need for liquid condiments.

Season grilled fish like salmon or mackerel, or meats such as yakitori (grilled chicken skewers). The salt adds depth, while the wasabi offers a refreshing, mild heat.

Sprinkle the salt over onigiri rice balls or mix it into the rice for a flavourful twist on this traditional Japanese snack.

Add a touch of this seasoning to cold noodle dishes like soba or udon to enhance the flavour of the dipping sauces or broths.

Adding a twist to western cuisine

Add a gourmet twist to grilled steak or roast beef dishes by sprinkling wasabi kombu salt over them. The umami from the kombu complements the richness of the meat, while the wasabi adds a subtle heat.

Sprinkle on french fries, crisps or popcorn for a delicious, spicy-salty snack that elevates simple foods to a new level of taste.

Wasabi kombu salt works wonderfully as a garnish for scrambled eggs, omelettes, or hard boiled eggs, giving a sophisticated flavour boost.

Keep dry, away from direct sunlight and moisture.
