Enjoy a taste of the Mediterranean with this Italian-inspired rice seasoning! Proposed as a new dish to one day utilize olives from Kagawa Prefecture’s own so-called “isle of olives”, Shodoshima, this creative seasoning combines the salty brine of olives with the slightly sweet notes of Japanese sake. Pieces of plump Spanish olives add a touch of textural intrigue and color to tender white rice, taking daily dishes to the next level. Recommended additions include a drizzle of olive oil, which adds a mellow richness, and black pepper, the subtle spice of which perfectly punctuates the earthiness of the olives.
