How To Make a Small Amount of Dashi Stock How To Make a Small Amount of Dashi Stock
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 cookpad.japan -
