Wondering how to subtly incorporate other flavors into your sushi?

Yet, far from being overpowering, garlic can be add interesting dimension to sushi and sashimi in the form of flavored Soy Sauce, or Sesame Seeds. Earthy and nutty, with just a hint of heat, Roland Garlic Flavored Sesame Seeds pair surprisingly well with popular sushi fish, such as the Albacore Tuna!
Sesame Seeds have a great many uses beyond adding subtle flavor to certain types of sushi rolls due to their nutrient content. Oil rich and high in protein, they’re considered a super-food when it comes to heart health and lowering cholesterol.

Roland Sesame Seeds come in a great variety of colors and flavors, making them ideal for use in place of more expensive sushi toppings, such as roe and caviar. They’re also a great addition to sauces, marinades and Gomashio due to their nutty undertones!
