I just discovered something so, so good...I want to sprinkle it on everything! Seaweed GOMASIO is a seasoning with seaweed, salt and sesame seeds, all organic, which brings just that added "something" to almost any dish. Traditional Gomasio is a delicious way to reduce sodium while adding a little calcium, magnesium, iron, protein, and fiber, and the additional seaweed ingredient adds even more healthful benefits. From now on, you'll probably find it included in all my recipes...well almost all...
Gomashio (hiragana: ごま塩; also spelled gomasio) is a dry condiment, similar to furikake, made from unhulled sesame seeds (ごま,goma) and salt (塩, shio). It is often used in Japanese cuisine, such as a topping for sekihan. It is also sometimes sprinkled over plain rice or over an onigiri.
Gomasio is the principal table condiment in the Macrobiotic way of natural foods diet. Use it in lieu of salt to season your food at table, giving hearty delicious taste.
