Notes

The traditional senbei are shaped like rice balls and are flavored with soy sauce. Some varieties are wrapped in nori seaweed and sprinkled with a bit of nori before baking. Other senbei are topped with kurogoma, which is black sesame seeds. The nutty flavor of senbei makes them a delightful snack at any time of day.
