Dashi powder

Dashi powder is the instant granulated version of the traditional Japanese broth dashi. Simply dissolve it in hot water and you get the foundation of Japanese soup or sauce instantly. It contains dried extract of bonito (katsuobushi), kombu, and usually salt or MSG. It has a deep umami flavor, a lightly smoky aroma, and a characteristic pinkish to beige color. Perfect for miso soup, ramen, udon, donburi, and marinades. Most cooks in Japanese households rely on it for its quick preparation.
