An Ultra-Easy Way to Make Dashi Stock for Lazy People!

The basic way of "making dashi" on TV cooking shows and in cookbooks results in an amount of dashi that can't be used up in one go, so you usually end up storing leftovers in the refrigerator. But you can't store dashi for that long, up to 5 to 7 days max. I often ended up letting it go to waste and relying on dashi stock granules. But with this recipe, you can make just 1 cup of dashi at a time, so there won't be waste. Great!◎ Ideally, you want to use hot water (108°F/98°C) from an electric water kettle. Dashi should not be brought to a boil. ◎ Simmer the kombu and bonito flakes you used to make the dashi in mirin and soy sauce. It's delicious eaten with grated daikon radish. For 1 cup (200 ml) worth. Recipe by Kokoacchi

I always make dashi stock for miso soup in the morning. I find it a bother to make dashi stock in advance for some reason, but these can just be thrown into a pan. Dissolve some miso and the miso soup is done. I find this workflow quite natural. I definitely recommend making them yourself rather than buying readymade dashi packs - so much cheaper.I use bonito powder. If you add konbu seaweed too, the dashi will be even more delicious. For 7 bags. Recipe by Mihomiho mama recipes

I learned how to make dashi at my local maternity class but noticed the amount of salt in the dashi powder was too much so I came up with this recipe.The original recipe didn't have enough of the savory flavor from the bonito so I added some more bonito to make it taste better.- For baby food I use very finely shredded bonito flakes. For everyday dashi you should be able to use finely shredded or normal-shred bonito flakes.- You can reuse the kombu to make tsukudani, and you can use the filtered bonito to make furikake rice sprinkles.T- he kombu and bonito flakes can be reused to make a second batch of dashi. For 1 liter. Recipe by Yuusui

I remade a recipe that my mother taught me.Step 2: Line the colander with a paper towel when you strain the broth.You can use this to serve udon noodles, chilled tofu, boiled greens, stews etc.Adjust the amount of mirin to suit your tastes.Step 3: You can also make this by adding the konbu to the mirin and soy sauce and keeping the mixture in the fridge for 1/2-1 day. After you remove the konbu, you can add it to the bonito flakes. Recipe by Yuuyuu0221

My mother learned this recipe ages ago from a TV program, and passed it down by word of mouth. Every since I've been making it regularly. You can buy dashi soy sauce, but it's hard to figure out how concentrated they are, plus they often have preservatives, so I no longer buy the market brands.The key is to let it rest overnight before straining it. If you strain it too early, the umami of the bonito flakes won't transferred to the soy sauce. It's a waste to throw away the strained off bonito flakes, so eat the remains as a rice accompaniment or tsukudani (simmered in soy sauce). I did make tsukudani but I forgot to take a photo. Recipe by Otsuji

I've been making this dashi stock for a long time.See how to make eel saucehere, and the instructions for Broiled Eel Rice Bowl (A Nagoya Speciality) here.You can also make this with dashi stock granules, but you'll get a more authentic flavor by using bonito flakes and kombu. Recipe by Yuuyuu0221

Not much back story here. I use this sauce on dishes like my "Fusion Kamatama Udon".

This is our family's method of making bonito and kombu dashi stock.If you'd like to save your stock for another day, you can freeze it in an ice cube tray. The bonito flakes may settle to the bottom, so strain them when transferring before use. Some say that the best temperature for making kombu dashi is 60°C, so I used that method here. Recipe by Hakuundou.

My mother used to make dashi stock with niboshi. I used a blend of niboshi, bonito flakes and kombu for my dashi stock. I sometimes add dried shiitake mushrooms.When I'm in a hurry, I skip the step of soaking the ingredients. Scoop the scum off the surface frequently. This dashi stock is convenient and can be used for simmered dishes, soup or mentsuyu. Recipe by Hakuundou

Don't toss your dashi-gara (leftover kombu seaweed from making dashi soup stock), make tsukudani!Simmer down to about 1 tablespoon of liquid. If you simmer any more, the kombu will harden. Recipe by Cooking S Papa

I used to use powered dashi broth. But my mother-in-law made this for hot pot and other dishes, so I asked her how to make it.You must take the konbu seaweed before it comes to a boil. Otherwise it'll become sticky and the umami of konbu seaweed will be lost.Be careful that it doesn't come to a boil too much after you put the bonito flakes. Recipe by sleep

I couldn't bring myself to throw the delicious dashi stock packs away since they still have umami left in the them, so I saved them little by little in the freezer.The contents of the dashi stock packs I use are roasted flying fish, mackerel flakes, bonito flakes, kombu, shiitake mushrooms, dried small sardines. Even though they are dashi leftovers, it's a shame to throw them away. So, I created a furikake for mature palates by adding a refreshing kick of sansho. You can make healthy, homemade furikake without sansho for children. Recipe by Mekamahao

This is a recipe that was handed down to me by my mother.It's also delicious if you make it with just bonito flakes.You can make tsukudani (rice topping) with the konbu. It's also delicious chopped and stir fried in sesame oil (flavor it with soy sauce, sake, and mirin)After using bonito flakes to make a second pressing of dashi, I make furikake. I dry roast the bonito flakes and then add sake, soy sauce, mirin and sesame seeds.For Step 2, heat over medium heat and slowly bring to a simmer.For Step 3, set a pot or bowl underneath.If you squeeze the bonito flakes too much, the dashi will turn bitter, so be careful.When you want to make a strong dashi, add extra bonito flakes.If making dashi with bonito flakes only, increase the amount of bonito flakes. Recipe by Yuuyuu0221

Because storebought mentsuyu doesn't have a strong umami flavor, I made this homemade mentsuyu using mackerel flakes. They are used for a very strong umami flavor to make soba dipping sauce.The mentsuyu noodle dipping sauce you get at soba restaurants uses mackerel flakes; that's why it's so tasty. These flakes give out so much umami flavor.If using this as mentsuyu, make sure to dilute as follows:Pouring sauce - 1 part all-purpose soy sauce : 4 - 5 parts waterDipping sauce - 1 part all-purpose soy sauce : 2 - 3 parts water.

My mother-in-law taught me this recipe that she has been using for years.The amount of water should fill the pot roughly 70 percent. You don't flavor the contents in the cooking pot itself, so the amount of water used is flexible. The gizzards are optional; use or omit as you like. For those who really like napa cabbage, you can add more. I suggest cutting up a bunch and then adding more to the pot as you eat. Recipe by 1630412

I thought of a way to efficiently use up the 100 g pack of bonito flakes I use all the time.Make sure not to simmer the konbu seaweed or bonito flakes longer than necessary. If you want clear dashi, I recommend straining through paper towels. This will make strong dashi, so if you prefer, dilute with 400 ml of water. Recipe by Gagarin
