Furikake is traditionally used on rice in Japanese cuisine, adding crunch, salt, sweetness and umami. It's most popular in the Western U.S. and on fine-dining menus.

Furikake is in the Inception stage. It’s considered a premium ingredient that can be found mostly on fine-dining menus and at independent restaurants.
