I love Dashi! It creates such a deep flavour and I started to use it even in non-Japanese dishes, for example my own version of Curry or in Risotto. Since Bonito-Flakes are really hard and expensive to get here in Germany (and I've never found the thick ones :( ) I'm making my Dashi always with dried anchovies and Kombu kelp - using Bonito flakes just for special occasions. But I'll try making the Shiitake Kombu one. Thank you so much for your videos!

I hope it's helpful! Let me know if you like dried shiitake Dashi. Actually, Dried shiitake and dried shrimp makes wonderful dashi! It's an advanced recipe. I will do it in the future!

That's actually great! Now I know there's several alternatives for when I run out of some ingredient (I don't have asian shops close by)

I was looking for a dashi recipe that didn't have kombu in it. I'll look for the thick cut bonito flakes. I know I like that flavor. Thanks!

Great video! A lot of information from an initially simple topic. I'm amazed that as much as I love Japanese food, and always have, until I started watching your channel, I didn't really know about dashi. I was surprised to learn that it may be more fundamental to Japanese cooking than soy sauce! I need to look for some thick cut bonito at my local Korean store. Speaking of soy sauce, could you maybe do a video on the different types? That there are even different types was also something new to me when I started watching this channel a few years ago. Tamari, Light (not Lite), Dark, any other types, etc.

You got it right! Dashi is the most fundamental element in Japanese cooking! And yes, I was thinking about to do more basics. Wait for me!

Hello! I have been trying to make cold brew Kombu shiitake Dashi. I see that everyone talks about making sure the Kombu doesn't get slimy but I have yet to get a cold brew that didn't have the Kombu thick with slime. The first time it sat for 24hrs. The second time only 7hrs. I also found the smell very pungent and strong. So I wasn't sure if these things are normal or if I was still doing something wrong. Thank you so much for your time and this wonderful video! :)

I just want to know, do we throw away the bonito flakes/shiitake/kombu after we make dashi? Or do we use them in cooking?
@xtacos4dinnerx6732 жыл бұрын
You can make Tsukudani with them.

Thank you for this interesting video. Regarding the Katsoubishi, I read the recommendation to use it within one week after opening the package. Is this only in order to use it at it‘s peak quality, or will it already perish after one week?
@kitchenprincessbamboo4 жыл бұрын
The aroma is losing day by day once you open the bag. But you don't have to worry about that. Keep in the freezer if you want keep longer.
