Buy Japanese Food Seasoning at The Wasabi Company

For an authentic Japanese cooking experience, having the right stocks and seasonings is essential. Japanese foods tend to be full of umami (“pleasant savoury taste”), which is reflected in our extensive range of Japanese seasonings, condiments and Japanese soup stocks. 

Because they’re so rich, Japanese seasonings are best used little and often. Unlike heavy sauces, they’re added at the table or right at the end of cooking to add a twist or a depth of saltiness, heat, sharp citrus or savoury flavour to a dish. Take our green yuzu kosho for example – packed with the aroma and flavour of delicious yuzu and the heat of fresh chilli. A little goes a long way!

Browse our high-quality stocks and seasonings and take your Japanese cuisine to a new level today.

Frequently asked questions

They are indeed. We pride ourselves on offering real, authentic ingredients to our customers because we know that you care about Japanese food just as much as we do. So, if you want proper sesame and yuzu furikake, try Wadaman brand, straight from Osaka; or, to liven up your katsu and okonomiyaki with an authentic sweet-and-sour kick, try our artisanal organic tonkatsu sauce. If you want to know where a product is from before ordering, leave us a message and we’ll be happy to help.

Japanese soup stock and seasoning is flexible. Furikake for example is great on rice, eggs and salads; and yuzu kosho is good with grilled meat, fish and dressings. Then something like our shichimi togarashi spice mix adds a subtle, slow-build heat and premium seven-spice flavour to your ramen. And if any of the flavours are new to you – or maybe too spicy! – you can always start small and add more if you like.

Absolutely! The flavourings might be new and unfamiliar, and the ingredients lists might be in kanji, but that doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy these seasonings as a beginner. Our shio koji, a versatile cure or marinade for poultry, meat, seafood and vegetables, is a good example. It might have a fruity sweet aroma you’ve never encountered before, but you marinade things with it the same way you would use a more familiar barbecue rub, for example.

Dry, powdered seasonings will last a long time when stored in a cool, dark place. Liquids can also be stored in a cool, dark place, but once opened they may need to be stored in your fridge. Always check product pages and labels for the best guidance.

Many of our Japanese seasoning products are vegan and vegetarian. Most of them are made from plant-based ingredients like ginger, yuzu and sesame seeds. If you aren’t sure, just check for the vegan and vegetarian symbols on each product page or take a look at the listed ingredients.
