Otsumami

Otsumami is a small dish you can eat with beer, wine, sake, or other drinks.  Usually I serve it just before appetizer, but there are lots of Izakaya(Tapas) in Japan and you can keep on having otsumami throughout the dinner. Izakaya has a lot of kind of Otsumami such as Yakitori, Tofu dishes, other dishes. This is a Otsumami I made yesterday.  It's just a mix nuts, but I put rosemary, salt and pepper with brown sugar and cayenne pepper then roasted in the oven.  I bought this local brand nuts very cheap, but it became a fantastic Otsumami.  It's delicious.
