What’s in Japanese Curry Paste?

Japanese curry paste is made with sunflower oil, a blend of powdered spices and aromatics (including cayenne pepper, poppy seeds, sesame, Sancho berries, ginger, nori leaves, orange powder), onion, spirit vinegar, salt, and fresh garlic.

The History of Japanese Curry

Japanese curry, traditionally known as Shichimi Togarashi in Japan, originated in 1625. Near the Yagen Canal in Edo, herbalists and apothecaries sought to create a spice and seed blend that was both healthy and flavorful for seasoning Japanese dishes. Thus, the Yagenbori Nakajima shop gave birth to Shichimi Togarashi—Japanese curry.
