About this Recipe

Togarashi is a versatile all-purpose seasoning commonly found in Japanese households. Its flavor is a harmonious combination of spicy, savory, and subtly citrusy notes. Our blend specifically includes sesame seeds and poppy seeds for a satisfying crunch, orange for a touch of sweetness, and seaweed for that unique umami flavor. 

When added to dishes, it enhances the overall flavor by introducing complexity, depth, and a delightful kick.

This fresh fruit salad is a quick and vegan delight that combines juicy seedless watermelon and crunchy cucumber, tossed with zesty lime juice, aromatic sesame oil, and fresh basil.

Gluten-free and bursting with summer goodness, this salad is a versatile must-try.

Instructions

1
Cut the watermelon in half and remove the rind before cutting the watermelon into bite size pieces.
2
Slice the cucumber into 1/4 inch pieces.
3
Add the watermelon to a large bowl with the cucumber and toss with the lemon juice, sesame oil, and basil.
4
Finish with a generous sprinkling of Pacific flake salt and Togarashi.
