MOSHIO
A Gift from the Sea
Moshio is salt derived from seawater and seaweed like sargassum. The beige-tinted salt, rich in minerals from seawater and seaweed, has mild flavor, aroma, and umami derived from seaweed that not only set it apart from rock- or sun-dried salt but also gain popularity for Moshio as all-natural health food.

From Mythic Origin
to Food Treasure House
Largest of the Seto Inland Sea islands, Awaji Island（Awaji-shima） is surrounded on all four sides by ocean. It is referenced in Japan’s creation myth as the first to be born among the archipelago islands and grew to be known as purveyor of many varied foodstuffs to the imperial court from ancient times. Since then, it is known for being a rich treasure house of fresh seafood, livestock, vegetables, and fruit.

Recipes
Moshio is rated highly by many renowned chefs for its natural saltiness, slight seaweed flavor, and distinctly profound umami. It works well in a wide array of dishes, from accompaniment with cold tofu and seasoning for steak, for yakitori chicken skewers, and for grilled fish to use in sushi rice and rice balls. The possibilities are endless. Its mild flavor also works well for use in salted desserts, which have been trending, as well as an umami infuser.
