yuujirou and Nagoyankee, thanks a lot for a very informative and thorough reply. Now I have a better idea how to use the different items. Have found a lot of info on the net after knowing what to google for.
Am looking forward to try the Kyoto Sen-nen sake chilled for my next sushi meal.
Have tried the uji-cha on my new kyusu, that was nice. And will of course try your tip on using the tea for ocha-zuke, thanks a lot for the tip!
Hehe, had to laugh when you told me I had bought ordinary pepper home all the way from Japan.
I was hoping I had bought home shichimi togarashi, but missed that one. I have seen I can order shichimi at online stores.
Do you think it is that good?
