Mishima Yukari is a classic Japanese furikake seasoning made from dried red shiso (perilla) leaves. Known for its vibrant colour and refreshing, slightly tangy flavour, it is traditionally used to season rice and everyday Japanese meals.

Light, aromatic, and well-balanced, Yukari adds a unique herbal freshness that enhances dishes without overpowering them. A staple in Japanese kitchens, it brings both flavour and visual appeal to simple foods.

Sprinkle directly over steamed rice, rice bowls, or onigiri for a traditional Japanese flavour.

It can also be used as a seasoning for noodles, salads, roasted vegetables, eggs, or mixed into rice before serving.

Yukari works by adding a gentle balance of saltiness and herbal freshness from red shiso leaves. Its fine texture allows it to coat food evenly, enhancing flavour and aroma with just a light sprinkle.
