Roasted Perilla Seed Caramel Pie (Toasted Egoma Caramel Pie)

Roasted Perilla Seed Caramel Pie

One Bite and You’re Hooked — A Grown-Up Indulgence

Rich, velvety caramel cream is tucked between crisp, flaky pie layers with a satisfying crunch. 

Finished with a topping of gently roasted egoma (perilla) seeds, each piece delivers an irresistible balance of sweetness and aroma.

The caramel’s soft, comforting sweetness blends beautifully with the deep, nutty fragrance of egoma.

With every bite, layers of flavor and texture unfold the light and crunchy, smooth and creamy, then delicately crisp again. It’s the kind of treat you reach for “just one more” of, and suddenly the box is empty.

What Is Egoma?

Egoma, also known as Japanese perilla seed, has long been part of Japanese food culture, valued not only for its distinctive aroma, but also for its role in everyday, mindful eating.

Lightly roasted, egoma seeds release a warm, nut-like fragrance and a gentle popping texture. As you chew, their flavor deepens, leaving a lingering, toasty note that pairs beautifully with caramel — less sugary, more nuanced, and pleasantly grown-up.

Beyond flavor, egoma has traditionally been appreciated for its nutritional qualities. It is naturally rich in plant-based oils, including alpha-linolenic acid (an omega-3 fatty acid), and contains dietary fiber and antioxidants. These elements have made egoma a familiar ingredient in Japanese kitchens, where taste and well-being are often considered together.

Generously Made with Premium Egoma

They use carefully cultivated egoma seeds grown by Ootaka Agriculture, farmers who focus on quality and aroma from the field up.

Their egoma stands out for its bold fragrance and satisfying presence in every bite.
