【Japan DirectMail】KAYANOYA Original Broth Powder 12packet

Original Dashi Stock Powder is made from materials of the highest quality. Its superb flavor comes from roasted ago (flying fish) and iwashi (sardine) in addition to the usual dashi mixture of kombu (dried kelp) and katsuobushi (dried bonito flakes). Excellent for use in both Japanese and Western dishes, adding umami (savory flavor) to soups, stews, pastas, grilled dishes, and more.

1) Stock 

There are two ways to prepare stock with Kayanoya dashi.  If your dish requires clear stock, use Method 1.  If your dish does not require clear stock, use either Method 1 or 2.  Both methods result in full-flavored stock. 

Method 1: Infusion 

One packet in 1 ¾ cups water (400 ml) for regular-strength dashi, or two packets in 2 cups water (500 ml) for hearty dashi. Place water and unopened packet(s) in saucepan.  Bring water to simmer over medium heat, and hold temperature for 2--3 minutes. 

Remove and discard packet(s).  Stock is ready to use.

Method 2: Inclusion
(Produces stock with powder particles.) 

Place water in saucepan.  Tear packet and empty powder into saucepan.  Bring water to simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally, and hold temperature for 2--3 minutes.  Stock is ready to use.

2) Seasoning

You can add dashi powder directly to dishes for a surprising flavor boost.  Add dashi directly to stir-fried dishes... use as a rub for meat, poultry or seafood... add to pasta or pasta sauces... use as seasoning for rice and grains, hamburger and more... sprinkle on pizza dough before baking.  Then use your imagination!
