Marumiya Furikake Japanese Rice Seasonings 5 packs (5.04oz) noritama,sukiyaki,okaka(bonito),tarako（cod roe)

There are essentially only two (2) big brands in Furikake (rice seasoning)...Marumiya and Nagatanien. Both are great, but IMO (and both are sold here on Amazon), Marumiya is the clear winner. I lost over 100 pounds swithcing to a primarily rice-based diet. Furikake allowed me to "fool" my tastebuds into thinking I was eating something other than "just jasmine sticky rice." What these various Furikake seasonings do is to "trick" your taste buds by making your rice taste like an entirely different dish/meal. Think about it, rice that taste like your eating scrambled eggs? Rice that tastes like your eating a steak, chicken, salmon, etc.? At first I thought it was magic. I don't read Japanese, nor am I asian, so I cannot tell you if all the ingredients are natural (either way, it's "MAGIC" to me). Highly recommended. As I said before, Marumiya is my preferred brand of Furikake over Nagatanien (which is not as "flavorful").

Seriously sukiyaki flavor is so damn good. I felt like I wasn't even eating rice anymore just blasts of flavor. I love the variety you get with this sampler, it's just a shame that the price was raised since I purchased this 3 years ago. You can buy these individual packets in Japan for like 100 yen (around $1 +tax). So a pack of 5 for $13 bucks? That's quite the markup even if the cost of shipping from Japan is included... I'll include the names of each packet in english-ish in case you want to search for individual flavors! :) Flavor profile of the other packets for the curious. - Tarako (Pink Packet) Slightly fishy taste. It'll get a little mushier than the other seasonings. Tarako is supposed to be pollock or cod roe flavor. If you like that, you'll enjoy this one. - Noritama (Green Packet) Nori = the toasty seaweed. Tama = short for tamago, or egg. This is basically egg + toasted seaweed. The egg is more powdery and crunchy. You taste mostly the nori/toasted seaweed. - Bonito-Egg-Seaweed (purple package) The remaining two tasty very similar. The only difference is the purple one has those egg sprinkles that the noritama packet does. - Bonito-Seaweed (black package) Same flavor profile as purple package, but slightly more umami.

We love this furikake other than the beef flavor. I'd give it 5 stars if they sold the flavors individually. It also seems like the price has gone up. I haven't found this brand anywhere other than Japan except through Amazon.

I love the diverse seasonings and they all taste very good. Purple packet is my absolute favorite. They definitely take plain rice and make it really good. usually I never eat rice unless it's paired with something (like meat, veggies, etc.) but I found I could eat just plain rice with some of the seasonings. Don't worry as it's not too overpowering and strong. It's more like well.. a seasoning! Not too strong but the added flavoring is definitely apparent. I highly recommend.

love them all! make me feel like I'm back in Japan!

My husband loves this on his rice. He is Asian and this is a very typical thing that Japanese and people from Hawaii use. it saves me time as well as saves me money. It is fairly expensive at the Asian markets. This gives a nice variety for him. I will definitely buy again.

Love this! I wish it came in just chicken or beef packets, which is the best!

These packets of furikake are precisely the same product we would buy when we lived in Japan. The packets came nicely packaged, and the "use by date" is quite far out time wise, so there is no concern about them becoming out of date quickly. Very happy to have this brand of furikake available to eat in the U.S.

Zum Start meiner Diät habe ich mich entschlossen meine Ernährung um Reis herum aufzubauen und mich von Fett-triefenden Bratkartoffeln zu verabschieden. Da ich mich auch von fetthaltigen Sossen getrennt habe blieb mir für den Anfang erst mal nur Reis pur für die Hauptmalzeiten, meist ergänzt um Gemüse und Salat. Doch wie bringt man den Reis dazu nach irgendwas zu schmecken? Da haben die Japaner eine gute Lösung gefunden: Ich habe diese Gewürzmischung in Japan bestellt und ca 2 Wochen später trifft sie per Luftpost ein. In dieser Zusammenstellung sind 5 verschiedene Geschmacksrichtungen die man selbst ausprobiert haben muss um sich eine Meinung zu bilden. Mal ein wenig süß, mal salzig, mal streng riechend. Wer sich mit dem japanischen Geschmack anfreunden kann der findet hier garantiert etwas was ihm scheckt. Ich esse 3 der 5 Mischungen gerne und nur eine davon liegt mir nicht so. Trotzdem hab ich jetzt schon 2 mal nachbestellt. Eine der 5 Tütchen hät bei mir für mindestens 10 Mahlzeiten. Für mich bedeutet die Gewürzmischung dass ich einfach einen Topf Reis machen kann und direkt loslegen kann ohne mir dabei allzuviel Gedanken um meinen Cholesterinspiegel machen zu müssen. Als Reis verwende ich passend dazu japanischen Sushi Rund-Reis.

Li ho scoperti leggendo un libro sulla preparazione dei bento, un’alternativa al panino o insalata per il pranzo: sono davvero molto buoni ne basta mezzo cucchiaino per dare gusto e rendere diversa la pausa pranzo. In famiglia vanno a ruba. Li prenderò ancora.

This selection gave me no doubles, which was great and each flavour was fabulous, adding instant enhancement to my meals, be they quick meals or more complex meals, There is a somewhat fish taste to some of them, especially, of course the ones that are cod roe or other fish based, but they also have other savoury flavour notes. So if you are not a fish fan, I would still give these a shot; a few tries should get you accustomed to the tastes and loving them. I also had a beef sukiyaki flavoured one, which I don’t eat, but a meat eating friend tried it and it has become her favourite.

Me alegro de haberlos encontrado en Amazon, me encantan!

These are really really good and versatile. I add them to a lot of different meals but I love them on rice. It elevates a quick, simple meal. Not bad price for 5 pouches. Excellent flavours
