THE “FURIFURI” PORTRAIT BY JULIE RENAUD
Julie is the co-founder of FURIFURI, a 100% natural furikake brand launched in 2021 with Natsuko. She shares her tips for using this seaweed and sesame-based condiment, ideal for adding maximum flavor and replacing salt.
> FURIFURI in a word?
A superb adventure for two, a magical condiment combining taste and health
> FURIKAKE is for me...
The condiment that needed to be reinvented in a 100% natural version.
> My favorite FURIFURI?
It's difficult because I love them all! But I still have a soft spot for FURIFURI CHILI PEPPER, which adds a kick to vegetables and grilled food. Plus, my daughters love it too!
> My FURIFURI recipe that’s so good and takes two seconds?
Chickpea salad + beetroot + feta + FURIFURI CHILLI to spice things up (and of course, zero salt!).
> The FURIFURI recipe that my children like?
Baked cod fillet + drizzle of olive oil (good, freshly pressed olive oil from my small Italian producer) + LEMON FURIFURI + Japanese rice to accompany. Quick, simple & healthy!
> The FURIFURI recipe for seduction every time?
I "stole" it from our super chef, Keisuke Matsushima, and offered it to our friends on New Year's Eve: scallop carpaccio + drizzle of olive oil + LEMON FURIFURI... I didn't have any shiso on hand, to make this dish even more sublime.
