If senbei aren\u2019t your cup of wasabi, there are healthier ways to add this uniquely spicy flavor to your nutritious snack repertoire.

A seemingly endless array of extremely popular seasonings in Japan that are used to add pizzazz to Japanese white rice\u2014often featuring a well-balanced mix of unmistakably Japanese flavors, including dried bits of nori, sesame, umeboshi, salmon, vegetables, and more.
