Togarashi Popcorn

This vibrant togarashi popcorn offers a sophisticated twist on a classic cinema snack, blending rich savoury notes with a gentle Japanese heat. The combination of nutty toasted sesame oil and pungent garlic creates a deeply aromatic base that perfectly carries the complex flavours of the shichimi togarashi spice blend. It is a wonderful choice for those seeking a snack that is both light and satisfyingly bold.

As a quick and easy vegetarian dish, this recipe is ideal for sharing during a weekend film night or serving as an unexpected nibble at a dinner party. The use of real butter and fresh garlic provides a much more refined taste than shop-bought alternatives. For the best results, serve it whilst still warm to fully appreciate the spiced butter coating.
