For applications such as blending shichimi togarashi, mapo sauce bases, seasoning tsukudani, Japanese-style seasonings, and confectionery accents, it aims to spread sansho's characteristic citrus-like aroma and tingling flavor evenly. Sansho is a deciduous shrub of the genus Zanthoxylum in the family Rutaceae (scientific name Zanthoxylum piperitum); the sanshool in its pericarp carries the tingling pungency and the volatile components carry the refreshing aroma. Agriture uses the same raw material as<a href=\"https:\/\/agriture.jp\/en\/product\/sansho\/\">Dried Japanese pepper (sansho)<\/a>and powders it with an added step of finely grinding the pericarp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sansho's tingle and aroma work by a different mechanism from the heat of chili pepper's capsaicin. To widen the range of flavor design, combining it with citrus-scented<a href=\"https:\/\/agriture.jp\/en\/powder\/yuzu-powder\/\">yuzu powder<\/a>and<a href=\"https:\/\/agriture.jp\/en\/powder\/sudachi-powder\/\">Sudachi powder<\/a>and the heat of<a href=\"https:\/\/agriture.jp\/en\/powder\/purple-chili-powder\/\">chili pepper powder<\/a>lets you design the powder blending for shichimi blends, Japanese-style seasonings, and mapo sauce all together. Specifications can be worked out from small quantities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sansho is a spice used in a wide range of ways, including green sansho berries, sansho powder, and sansho leaves. Among these, sansho powder made by drying and grinding the pericarp of ripe berries has long been enjoyed as a condiment for grilled eel, mapo tofu, and tsukudani. The powder suits even blending into sauces and powdered seasonings that are difficult with the whole berry, and for commercial use it can be developed as a blending raw material for shichimi, for seasoning aroma, and as an aroma accent in confectionery. Because the particle size can be selected, one advantage is that a single raw material readily covers everything from sprinkle applications to blending applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Agriture's sansho powder, three points of care<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"border-top:2px solid #2c5f2d;border-bottom:2px solid #2c5f2d;padding:20px 24px;margin:24px 0;background:#fafcf8;\">\n<h3 style=\"color:#2c5f2d;margin:0 0 10px;font-size:18px;\">1. A drying design that keeps sansho's characteristic aroma<\/h3>\n<p style=\"margin:0;\">Sansho's appeal lies in its citrus-like refreshing aroma, and the aroma components are readily affected by heat and time. Agriture adjusts the temperature range and operates under conditions where sansho's characteristic aroma and tingling flavor remain. We also control the frictional heat during grinding, aiming for a finish where the aroma does not escape too much. Blend prototyping across application genres is possible, spanning shichimi, seasonings, confectionery, and sauces.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"p-blogParts post_content\" data-partsid=\"2831\">\n<div class=\"swell-block-fullWide pc-py-20 sp-py-20 alignfull\" style=\"background-color:#ffffff\"><div class=\"swell-block-fullWide__inner l-container\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center is-style-section_ttl u-mb-ctrl u-mb-10\">Product catalog showing the items we handle<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">Flexible support from small lots to large lots<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns are-vertically-aligned-center\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center\" style=\"flex-basis:30%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large size_xs\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/agriture.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/DSC_4178-Edit-edited-1-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\u4e7e\u71e5\u91ce\u83dc\" class=\"wp-image-110\" srcset=\"https:\/\/agriture.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/DSC_4178-Edit-edited-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/agriture.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/DSC_4178-Edit-edited-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/agriture.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/DSC_4178-Edit-edited-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/agriture.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/DSC_4178-Edit-edited-1-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/agriture.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/DSC_4178-Edit-edited-1-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center\" style=\"flex-basis:30%\">\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list -list-under-dashed\">\n<li>Sold in small lots from 100g<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Handling heirloom vegetables from across Japan<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Dried fruits and herbs also supported<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center\" style=\"flex-basis:30%\">\n<div class=\"swell-block-button -size-l is-style-btn_normal\"><a href=\"https:\/\/agriture.noco.sale\/share\/d\/01KT67ZHHNQF9MZ0RKRGQA92MQ\" class=\"swell-block-button__link\"><span>Download here<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Characteristics of commercial sansho powder<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By finely milling it, you can expand into the application domain of \"even blending into sauces and powdered seasonings\" that the whole berry cannot reach. Here are the strengths unique to sansho powder organized across six points.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:16px;margin:24px 0;\">\n<div style=\"flex:1 1 calc(50% - 8px);min-width:260px;background:#fafcf8;border-left:3px solid #2c5f2d;padding:18px 20px;\">\n<p style=\"color:#2c5f2d;font-weight:bold;margin:0 0 8px;font-size:16px;\">Concentrating sansho's aroma and tingle<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0;\">The powder concentrates sansho's citrus-like aroma and the sanshool-derived tingling flavor. A small amount of blending adds a sansho-like accent to dishes such as shichimi blends, mapo sauce, and tsukudani. It is an ingredient whose flavor blends into the whole dish more readily than using the whole berry.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"flex:1 1 calc(50% - 8px);min-width:260px;background:#fdfbf6;border-left:3px solid #6b8e23;padding:18px 20px;\">\n<p style=\"color:#2c5f2d;font-weight:bold;margin:0 0 8px;font-size:16px;\">Flavor design different from chili pepper<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0;\">Sansho's tingle comes from sanshool and works by a different mechanism from the heat of chili pepper's capsaicin. A tingle accompanied by a citrus-like aroma, when combined with chili pepper in shichimi or mapo sauce, makes it easier to build a blend with clearly defined aroma and heat.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"flex:1 1 calc(50% - 8px);min-width:260px;background:#fafcf8;border-left:3px solid #2c5f2d;padding:18px 20px;\">\n<p style=\"color:#2c5f2d;font-weight:bold;margin:0 0 8px;font-size:16px;\">Supports Japanese, Chinese, and confectionery blends<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0;\">By pre-blending it with powders such as yuzu, sudachi, chili pepper, and ginger, you can design shichimi, Japanese-style seasonings, mapo sauce, and sweet accents from a single raw material supplier.

In Japan, lineages are known by growing region, such as \"Budo sansho\" from Wakayama Prefecture and \"Asakura sansho\" from Tajima in Hyogo Prefecture, each with its own character in pericarp thickness, how the aroma rises, and the strength of the tingle. As a powder raw material, we select it by looking at the balance of aroma and pericarp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"background:#fdfbf6;border:1px solid #e0ead8;padding:22px 24px;margin:24px 0;\">\n<p style=\"color:#2c5f2d;font-weight:bold;margin:0 0 6px;font-size:15px;\">BRAND<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0 0 16px;\">Agriture manages everything from drying to grinding and packaging in one place, using sansho grown in Wakayama Prefecture as the raw material. Our basic policy is a finish that keeps sansho's characteristic citrus-like aroma and tingling flavor.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color:#2c5f2d;font-weight:bold;margin:0 0 6px;font-size:15px;\">PRODUCER<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0 0 16px;\">We partner with contract growing regions and accept raw material after sharing rough guides on cultivar, harvest timing, and pericarp state. We record raw-material lots and use them to reproduce aroma and flavor in mass production.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color:#2c5f2d;font-weight:bold;margin:0 0 6px;font-size:15px;\">REGION<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0 0 16px;\">The main growing regions are Wakayama and Hyogo Prefectures. From areas known as famous sansho-producing regions, we intensively source raw material during the season when the aroma rises. We can also provide a stable supply of raw material through a relay across growing regions.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color:#2c5f2d;font-weight:bold;margin:0 0 6px;font-size:15px;\">CULTIVATION<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0;\">We process mainly the pericarp from ripe berries into raw material, accepting it with the balance of aroma and tingle as a guide. We set conditions through the grinding step to ensure reproducibility between lots.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Powdering technology and quality control<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Aroma retention and particle-size control<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sansho is an ingredient whose aroma components are readily affected by heat and time. We adjust the temperature range and operate under conditions that dry and grind it while keeping sansho's characteristic aroma. We also control the frictional heat during grinding, aiming for a finish where the powder does not hold too much heat. We adjust the particle size so it can be selected to suit the application, handling everything from fine powder for sauces to slightly coarse to keep texture. Commercial bulk uses light-blocking aluminum bags, and small bags and sticks use moisture- and light-blocking film, with specifications proposed to suit storage at the storefront and warehouse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Lot control and reproducibility<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sansho's aroma and tingle character changes with growing region, cultivar, and harvest timing. We record raw-material lots and operate so that mass production comes close to the same flavor. If you share the flavor you are aiming for in the finished product, we raise reproducibility from both raw-material selection and blend formulation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"background:#fff8e7;border-left:5px solid #f0a040;padding:18px 22px;margin:24px 0;\">\n<p style=\"margin:0 0 8px;font-weight:bold;color:#8b4513;\">TIPS: A guide to blends that make the most of sansho powder<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0;\">When used in a shichimi blend, combining it with chili pepper, chenpi, sesame, and aonori and allocating sansho to 10 to 20% of the whole is the range where tingle and aroma come through. In a mapo sauce base, blending it at 2 to 4% of the powdered seasoning lets the sansho-like tingle settle into the sauce. For finishing tsukudani, about 1 to 3% of a salt- or soy-based mixture is a guide. As an accent in Japanese sweets and chocolate, a small blend of 0.5 to 1% lets you work in an aromatic hook. In each case, how strongly it comes through is designed by the blend amount.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Use cases<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because the powder disperses evenly in liquids and powders, it extends to applications the whole berry cannot reach. Here are the applications we are often asked about, organized. For seasoning shichimi, mapo sauce, and tsukudani, we handle everything from mixing at a specified ratio to bagging in one place. We can also handle blends for confectionery and sauce applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Shichimi and Japanese-style seasonings<\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Shichimi togarashi has long included sansho as one of its components. We pre-blend it with chili pepper, chenpi, sesame, and others, and handle everything from mixing to bagging in a formulation that brings out sansho's aroma and tingle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Mapo sauce and Chinese seasonings<\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For tingle-forward Chinese menu items such as mapo tofu, sansho's tingle and aroma can be evenly blended into the sauce. Combined with chili pepper powder, we supply a sauce base designed with a defined edge of heat and tingle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Seasoning eel and tsukudani<\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sansho powder is a standard condiment for grilled eel and tsukudani. The fine powder blends its aroma readily into the whole dish, and it can also be developed for powdered seasoning and furikake in finished products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Seasonings and spice mixes<\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It can be used as an accent in Japanese-style seasonings and spice mixes combined with powders such as yuzu, sudachi, and ginger. Because the particle size can be selected, it suits both sprinkle and blending applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Accents for confectionery and sweets<\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sansho's citrus-like aroma is also used as an aromatic accent in chocolate, baked goods, and Japanese sweets. The fine powder mixes evenly into batters and bean paste, and a small blend can add a distinctive aroma.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sauces and dressings<\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sansho's aroma and tingle can be worked evenly into Japanese-style dressings, dips, and sauces. Making use of its dispersibility in liquids, it can be built into the seasoning design of finished products.

Using both together balances grain feel and base flavor.<\/p><\/div>\n<div style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #e0ead8;padding:18px 0\"><h3 style=\"color:#2c5f2d;margin:0 0 10px;font-size:16px;border-left:3px solid #2c5f2d;padding-left:12px\">Is sansho's tingle different from chili pepper's heat?<\/h3><p style=\"margin:0\">The mechanism differs. Sansho's tingle comes from a component called sanshool contained in the pericarp, a different sensation from the heat of chili pepper's capsaicin. Sansho is characterized by an accompanying citrus-like aroma, and combining it with chili pepper in shichimi or mapo sauce makes it easier to build a blend with a defined edge of aroma and heat. How strongly the tingle and aroma come through is adjusted by blend amount and blend design.<\/p><\/div>\n<div style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #e0ead8;padding:18px 0\"><h3 style=\"color:#2c5f2d;margin:0 0 10px;font-size:16px;border-left:3px solid #2c5f2d;padding-left:12px\">Can it be pre-blended with other spices and vegetable powders?<\/h3><p style=\"margin:0\">Yes. We handle pre-blending with spices and vegetable powders that pair well in Japanese and Chinese styles, such as chili pepper, yuzu, sudachi, ginger, and chenpi. If you share the blend you are aiming for in the finished product, such as shichimi, mapo sauce, or Japanese-style seasoning, we handle everything from mixing at that ratio to bagging.<\/p><\/div>\n<div style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #e0ead8;padding:18px 0\"><h3 style=\"color:#2c5f2d;margin:0 0 10px;font-size:16px;border-left:3px solid #2c5f2d;padding-left:12px\">Can the particle size be chosen?<\/h3><p style=\"margin:0\">You can select it to suit the application. For even blending into sauces and powdered seasonings we propose a fine powder, and for keeping it as a sprinkle or a textural accent we propose a slightly coarser particle size. If you share the aim of the finished product, we design from both particle size and blend.<\/p><\/div>\n<div style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #e0ead8;padding:18px 0\"><h3 style=\"color:#2c5f2d;margin:0 0 10px;font-size:16px;border-left:3px solid #2c5f2d;padding-left:12px\">What is the minimum prototype lot?<\/h3><p style=\"margin:0\">Prototypes are accepted from 100 g of raw material. For mass production and OEM, we propose a quote and lead time individually. You can consult us on everything through to finished-product production, such as shichimi, mapo sauce, tsukudani, and Japanese-style seasonings.<\/p><\/div>\n<div style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #e0ead8;padding:18px 0\"><h3 style=\"color:#2c5f2d;margin:0 0 10px;font-size:16px;border-left:3px solid #2c5f2d;padding-left:12px\">Please tell me the best-before date and how to store it.<\/h3><p style=\"margin:0\">The best-before date is about 6 months from the shipping date. Because sansho powder readily loses aroma and absorbs moisture, before opening store it in a cool, dark place at room temperature, away from heat, humidity, and direct sunlight. After opening, transfer it to an airtight container and we recommend using it up while the aroma remains.<\/p><\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Recommended reading<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul
