## Description

Katsuobushi is dried shaved bonito fish, and it's mainly used to make Dashi (dashi is a basic soup stock). A good dashi is the first secret to successful Japanese cooking. Although we offer an excellent quality, convenient instant dashi, a soup stock will always taste best if it's prepared from scratch with katsuobushi. To make dashi stock simply put 4 cups water in a pan and heat on medium heat. Just before the water boils, add 1/2 cup katsuobushi flakes. When the water boils, stop the heat and strain the broth. If you can find a piece of fresh konbu (Japanese seaweed) you can use that to make "konbu and katsuobushi" dashi. Put 4 cups water in a pan and soak one 6" piece of kombu (wipe dirt of konbu first but do not rinse it) for 1-2 hours. Heat the water on low heat and remove the kombu just before the water boils. Add katsuobushi and turn off the heat. Strain the broth to get dashi. This dashi is often used for clear soup. If you don't have konbu you can experiment with fueru wakame (dried seaweed) to enhance your dashi. Leftover dashi stock may be stored in the fridge for 2-3 days or frozen. Katsuobushi is also used on top of Japanese pancake, okonomiyaki, and cold tofu dish, hiyayakko. Katsuobushi is also a gourmet cat treat, often sold in .25 oz packets for the same price as the 1.05 oz bag offered on this page. Most cats go crazy for it, and it's a low calorie, non-fat treat that doesn't ruin the cat's appetite. It can be used when training a cat via positive reinforcement methods. We offer one value pack which is 6 individual bags, each 0.17 oz.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: would this amount fill 1/4 cup?**
A: The product  had five separate bags and  the total would be slightly less than 1/4 cup. I can add one bag to two ramon noodles and miso soup mix  to make a very flavorfull  soup. Evening meal while hiking.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Very tasty in my onigiri!
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on June 7, 2014*

I had never had bonito flakes before, and I wanted to make traditional Japanese rice balls (onigiri). I didn't want to get a lot of this food because I wasn't sure I would like it, and I didn't want to spend a fortune on it, either. This 1.05 oz package worked out perfectly. I have really enjoyed it in the rice balls I have made so far.
