Well, OK, the title is a reference that will likely be understood only by Trekkies, but the ingredient I am posting about is Shichimi Togarashi spice, which is a mixture of yuzu, ginger, red chilli powder, seaweed, black and white sesame, as well as the perfumey Japanese cardamom called sansho.
I use it frequently in one of the side dishes we often make, a blanched bean sprout preparation with sesame oil, soy and the spice mix - you very briefly blanche the sprouts in hot water then chill them under cold water and dress them with the dressing, some chopped green onion and sprinkle with sesame seeds (I usually use a mix of brown and black). The sprouts are crunchy cold and the spice wakes up the taste buds.
You can also sprinkle it over fresh buttered popcorn. Amazon sells it and a small amount lasts a long time! Try it, you might like it (any other fans out there?)
