Technical procedure

  1. Preparation of dashi (だし – Dashi)

    • Soak kombu in 1 L of cold water for 30 minutes.

    • Slowly heat the water until small bubbles appear. Remove the kombu before boiling.

    • Add katsuobushi. Remove from heat and let infuse for 3 to 5 minutes.

    • Strain through a fine strainer. Reserve the clear dashi.

  2. Cooking the aromatics

    • Heat sesame oil in the saucepan.

    • Sauté garlic, ginger, and onion for 3 to 5 minutes until translucent.

  3. Assembling the broth

    • Add the strained dashi to the saucepan.

    • Incorporate mirin, soy sauce, and sugar (optional).

    • Bring to a gentle boil, then reduce to medium heat and simmer for 10 minutes.

  4. Incorporating the miso (味噌)

    • Take a ladle of hot broth.

    • Dissolve the miso in this broth in a separate bowl.

    • Carefully return the miso mixture to the saucepan.

    • Do not boil again. Maintain at a low temperature.

 Quality control

  • The broth should remain clear, without undissolved particles.

  • The flavor must show a balance of umami (味の素), saltiness, and sweetness.

  • Miso should not be overheated after addition to preserve its enzymes and aromas.
