Senbei from Japan

My neighbor asked what can she bring from Japan...

I asked for Senbei, which is rice cracker in Japanese.  They have all sorts of flavors.

This one has 2 flavors, one is deep fried octopus the other is deep fried squid.

This is the octopus - the flavor is light, and the pieces are huge.

I like the squid flavor one better, it truly have more taste and flavor coming through.  I guess you can say it taste more like fried seafood if you didn't know it was squid I particular.  And the way they squish the rice cracker, you wouldn't have known, but the flavor is there.

Senbei comes in different flavors, it can be with nori (seaweed), sweet, spicy (with wasabi), sour (with vinegar), and salt (popular with soy sauce of course).  There are big ones like a piece of cookie, or these ones like crackers, or ones you get a Trader Joe's that are really snack size.  It's truly a great snack, it's got flavor and filling.  Add that to your snack repertoire.
