Best 6 Furikake Mix Recipes
Furikake is a versatile Japanese seasoning made from a mixture of dried and ground ingredients. Typically, it contains sesame seeds, dried seaweed (nori), salt, sugar, and monosodium glutamate (MSG). This condiment adds a savory, salty, and nutty flavor to various dishes, enhancing their taste and visual appeal.
In this article, we present two furikake recipes: the classic version and a vegan alternative. The classic furikake recipe includes ingredients like sesame seeds, nori, bonito flakes, sugar, salt, and MSG. We also provide a detailed guide on making vegan furikake, which omits bonito flakes and uses nutritional yeast and dried shiitake mushrooms instead. Furthermore, we offer a recipe for a furikake-crusted salmon, a delightful dish that combines the flavors of furikake with flaky salmon. Each recipe includes step-by-step instructions, cooking tips, and nutritional information to ensure a successful and enjoyable cooking experience. With furikake, you can transform simple meals into flavorful and exciting culinary creations.

STEVE'S OFTEN COPIED, NEVER DUPLICATED, FURIKAKE CHEX MIX
This is a sweet and spicy Asian variation of Chex mix. There are times I have made this by the bucketful, and it still runs out at parties. I often give this out as Christmas or hostess gifts. Be very careful. This party mix is HIGHLY addictive, very dangerous to keep around in big quantities and may result in some weight gain!This recipe is a combination of a few recipes, one from foodgeeks.com and another from beanpaste.blogspot.com. It also has a few of my own personal touches.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F.
- Mix together all the cereals, pretzels, and peanuts in a large baking pan (The tin foil ones that you can buy from the store to roast turkey works really well!).
- Divide the mixture between two pans.
- In a medium-sized sauce pan over medium to medium-high heat, melt butter.
- Add sugar and dissolve well.
- Add corn syrup, soy sauce, oil, Worcestershire sauce, and Tabasco Sauce. Stir until blended well. It works best if you heat till it reaches the hard ball stage (about 250 degrees).
- Pour over cereal mixture, one pan at a time, and mix well.
- Put into the oven.
- After 15 minutes, remove from oven, and add one bottle of furikake to each pan. Mix around to evenly distribute furikake and sauce from the bottom.
- Continue baking for about 1-2 hours, stirring every 15 minutes.
- The cooking time fluauates depending on how crispy you want it, and how humid it is (making this in 90% humidity is a nightmare!).
- Store in an air-tight container or ziplock bags.

Steps:

- In a sauce pan, heat butter, corn syrup, vegetable oil, soy sauce and sugar, until the sugar dissolves. Let cool.

FURIKAKE CHEX MIX
I use 3 cups Rice Chex and 3 cups Corn Chex, but will submit as posted on Foodjimoto.com. It is ADDICTIVE! Please make sure you do not take it out of the oven too soon, it will be sticky and not crunchy. 1/5/12 here is a description of Furikake as suggested by Foodtvfan:" Furikake seasoning is like the salt and pepper of Japan. It is a table condiment made of roasted tan and black sesame seed, green nori flakes and pickle red shiso(beefsteak) leaves". Thanks Foodtvfan. In addition to this flavor, Furikake comes in multiple different flavors.
