Shimaya Irikodashi No Moto Anchovy Dashi Stock Powder 8g

Dashi (だし) is a fundamental soup stock used in Japanese cuisine, forming the base for countless dishes. This Irikodashi no Moto from Shimaya is an instant dashi powder made from dried anchovies, providing a deep, savoury, and umami-rich flavour with a distinct seafood aroma. It dissolves quickly in hot water, creating a flavourful broth in seconds. Use it as a base for miso soup, noodle broths like udon or soba, or to add depth to simmered dishes, sauces, and Japanese hot pots (nabe). To prepare, simply dissolve the contents of one 8g sachet into the recommended amount of hot water for an authentic Japanese stock. This convenient powder is a staple in Japanese pantries for adding authentic flavour to everyday meals without the time-consuming process of making dashi from scratch.
