Dashi Soup – Asian Food Recipes

Recipe ingredients and directions:

1 strip of kombu (about 5-7 inches, wiped lightly with a moistened cloth

3 cups water

Combine kombu and water in a saucepan and bring just to a boil.

Turn off heat, remove kombu, and reserve for use in other cooking.

For a more pronounced flavor and viscous consistency, score kombu

surface at 1/2 inch intervals and simmer for 3 to 5 minutes before

removing.

Another tasty variation is to add shitake (3 fresh – sliced) or

1/4 cup dried. Strain dashi before using.
