homemade dashi ~
One of the most commonly used ingredients in Japanese cooking is dashi. It’s honestly quite simple once you learn about the ingredients used and it takes much less time to make compared to other broths. I try to keep dashi handy in the fridge for warming up leftovers or making a quick miso/noodle soup.
ingredients linked on my amazon storefront in bio —
4 cups water
15g kombu — dried seaweed
katsuobushi — dried bonito flakes
5 large dried anchovies, gutted
Soak the kombu in 4 cups of water for at least an hour, or overnight in the fridge is best. Warm the broth and kombu on medium heat, but don’t let it come to a boil or else it’ll become slimy. Remove the kombu from the pot right before it comes to a boil and add the dried anchovies. Let this simmer on low heat for about 15 minutes, then turn off the heat and add a small handful of bonito flakes. Allow this to sit for 10 minutes to extract the flavors, then pass it through a sieve and let it cool before storing in the fridge.

Makes sense to take out the guts.. I didn’t realize they were bitter. 👍🏽

omg you LOOKED LIKE ABBY MILLARD FROM CHICKEN LITTLE 🥹
In Japanese, ALL vowels are always pronounced the same way:
a = ah
i = ee
u = oo
e = eh
o = oh
kombu is pronounced
comb-boo
you have good taste👍
thank you
"u" is sometimes not prounced, especially at the end of a word.
Love your videos but some recipes just seem,to me, like they’d taste like fish food lol
Cooking without makeup – never possible for you maybe? 🙁
I watch a lot of YT videos of japanese cooks in restos making dashi. They boil the seaweeds, anchovies and bonito flakes in a rolling boil for at least an hour. Not just soak them.
it seems like basic respect to /try/ to pronounce things correctly. you're trying to be educational but you're butchering even basic words 🙁
i love your videos because it has gave me so much inspo and your cooking really helps me mentally! i love your rice paper recipes because they are so convenient for when you don’t have a lot! ❤️
What if I’m not fond of fish? Is there an alternative?
I heard if you say your favourite creators name 3 times they will pin you.
