I had a go at measuring the ingredients properly instead of just winging it like I normally do when making ponzu sauce.

In my house, we often use dashi soy sauce. The sake and mirin will come to a boil very quickly, so don't take your eyes off the pan and don't let it come to a simmer. We love adding a dash of 'Super Easy! Red Hot Yuzu Pepper Paste'. Recipe by Keyua

Steps

1

Put the sake, mirin and kombu in a pan. Heat over medium and boil briefly to evaporate the alcohol.
2

Add the soy sauce to Step 1. As soon as it comes to a boil, add the bonito flakes and turn off the heat (don't simmer!).
3

Once the sauce has cooled down, combine with the rest of the ingredients and it's done!
4

This is the yuzu juice I used. It's organic, hand-squeezed, and additives-free.
5

[If using dashi stock granules] Put the sake, mirin and dashi stock granules in a pan. Evaporate the alcohol by bringing it to a boil, and add the rest of the ingredients.
6

[Delicious boiled tofu] Place the kombu in a pot, add tofu and water and slowly bring to a boil. Once boiling, turn off the heat and serve. This will transform firm tofu soft and wobbly.
