When the temperatures reach 90 degrees, I am less and less inclined to cook...unless everything can be thrown into the blender and you can call it a day. Not to mention, you're getting your greens here. —Katey501

Hi Tricia!

Shichimi Togarashi is a Japanese spice mixture...like a chili powder. It has a little bit of heat to it. http://www.amazon.com/House-Shichimi-Togarashi-Japanese-Pepper/dp/B0002YGSJQ
