Directions:
Veggie Dashi
1. Wipe the surface of kelp gently with using clean cloth.
*This is to remove the impurities. Don’t wash the Kelp since the flavor will be lost.
2. Put kelp and dried shiitake mushrooms in a bowl with water. Then, wait for minimum of 30 minutes at least.
3. Heat the water with kelp and mushrooms until it starts to boil. Just before boiling, take out the kelp only.

YUCa’s Tips :
1. Wipe the surface of dried kelp well before cooking. Don’t wash it!
2. To keep the flavor of the kelp intact, do not boil it.
3. When you make a lot of dashi, keep it in a fridge or freezer.
