The combination of three bushi (Dried Bonito, Dried Mackerel, and Dried Soda Bonito) creates a thick flavor and the unique umami and aroma of fish broth. The source of the deep richness and thick aroma comes from Soda bonito which has more blood, the reddish-black part of the meat, along the middle bone of the fish. A strong oily astringent taste is created by Mackerel. The sweetness of dried bonito balances the flavor of three. Tokyo Dashi is a perfect match for soba, udon, and various warm soups. It even gets along with the strong miso.

How to make the best dashi

  1. Put a dashi bag in a saucepan and fill it with water.
  2. Bring the water to a boil. Then keep boiling on medium heat for 4 to 5 minutes to extract the dashi. Turn off the heat and remove the dashi bag.

The best ratio for flavorful dashi

-Standard Dashi

1 dashi bag for 300ml of water

-Rich Dashi

2 dashi bags for 500ml of water


Our dashi is made using all-natural ingredients. To adjust the flavor, simply add salt. After extracting the dashi, open the bag and roast the ingredients in a pan with soy sauce, sugar, mirin, and sake to make a furikake seasoning to sprinkle over rice or mix into rice balls.
