Help needed from a Japanese speaker - 02-05-2009, 10:02 AM

A friend brought a gift from Japan claiming it was tea. However it seems more like a condiment for rice - maybe someone who speaks Japanese could help me. I found the webpage of the company and this is the product:

Your friend is wrong. That's no tea at all.

It's called Ochazuke. You sprinkle it over cold left-over rice in a bowl and pour hot water. A quick meal.

In the darkness under the moon he plots
In the silence of the night he kills.
