Odawaraya "Taberu" series 2 types taste review

This time, we tried two products from Odawaraya's "Taberu" series

• Edible chili oil
• Edible olive oil

First up is the " edible chili oil ." This comes in a bottle containing 110g.

The dandy garlic on the packaging has a powerful gaze. Once you make eye contact with his straight eyes, you won't be able to look away

When you open the package, you'll find plenty of ingredients

The ingredients marinated in oil are fried garlic and fried onions. You can see that each is "uniformly sized." Although the pieces are small, they are all uniform in size, which shows the care that went into the preparation

Now, let's try pouring it over rice

The sight of the chili oil sauce seeping into the freshly cooked rice is a sight to behold. When you bite into the slowly soaked rice and ingredients at the same time, the garlic punch hits you hard. The slightly sweet sauce also brings out the flavor of the fried onions, which is great

The texture is crunchy. Even though it's oil-soaked, it crumbles into a dry, satisfying texture. The more you chew it, the more the garlic flavor comes out, making it delicious. The texture makes you want to eat more and more rice

The spiciness was mild, so I felt that it was a product that many people could eat without worry

Next is " Edible Olive Oil ." According to the official store, this is Odawaraya's best-selling item as of December 2025. The content is 110g.

The garlic on the packaging is so gentlemanly... The playful packaging also arouses curiosity

Because it's olive oil, the contents are very clear

The ingredients here are also fried garlic and fried onions

I had it on top of rice

The first thing that surprised me was the clarity of the flavor. I knew the combination of garlic and olive oil was perfect, but I didn't expect such a deep, clear flavor. The umami of the fried onions melts into the dish, enhancing the punch of the garlic. Of course, it doesn't leave you feeling bloated

The ingredients here also have a crunchy texture. According to the official website, in order to maintain the texture, no liquid is used in the seasoning. This makes the texture very light. It would be delicious not only with rice, but also as a topping for pizza or pasta
