Bonito is a type of fish (looks a little like a small tuna) basically it's dried and then flakes are shaved of the dried fish. I have heard of different dried fish being used like sardines but I recommend you find some bonito flakes. You should be able to find some in a Chinese grocery store, If you cant find it locally go online and buy it there ( if you live in USA or Europe you can buy it though my website online. Good luck in your search for bonito flakes!

Well sort of, Umami is glutamate a naturally occurring substance in all foods, it's especially high in Kombu for example: Kombu = glutamate 2204 mg/100g Chicken = glutamate 76 mg/100g carrots = glutamate 33 mg/100g Glutamate or umami is responsible for the savory taste in food, MSG on the other hand is a refined product from sugar cane stands for MonoSodium Glutamate it's a manufactured product meant to simulate the savory taste known as umami.

I find the taste of the bonito quite overwhelming when I use bonito flakes on about anything. I'm seeing more and more dishes using dashi stock so I'm kinda worried about it having a strong taste of fish on other recipes which frankly I can't see it improving with a hint of fish (like some chicken recipes. Does the bonito taste show on other recipes, and/or can I make a dashi stock only with kombu? Thanks!

Thx for replying. I'm from Kuwait. I found few seaweeds but not kombu. I think maybe it's because Japanese cuisine is only got popular lately here so it will need some time to get all ingredients. I might try online though. Thank you. I love your videos and I'm learning a lot from you. Keep it up.

I'm not aware whether or not Ajinomoto dashi stock causes cancer or not. I did only suggest that if there is no time to make Dashi stock the proper way. Then again whether or not something causes cancer, doesn't seem to stop most people consuming it anyway. cigarettes are a prime example.

Almost correct? You bring the water with kombu to right at the boiling point. Shut the heat off, take the kombu out. Let the liquid cool. Important! Heat the liquid again to light boiling, add bonito flakes, boil 2-5 minutes. Drain the liquid through a sieve. That is proper dash broth.

If your really in a pinch, you can just add rice vinegar, mustard and, sugar to regular mayo to achieve similar results as well. Obviously, the Dashi stock would be a nice addition too if you have that as well.

Hi Chef. Davy Devaux. Lovely looking all your videos, thanks for sharing all the stuff. I have a question, how if I make a bit more dashi. can I put it in refrigerator? or it only for single use only?
reply

errm. there's really only 2 ingredients! I cant really suggest any other products. Kombu is very high in Umami. Have you tried looking in a Chinese grocery store? or online? what country do you live in?

Worth mentioning the stock would keep for a couple of days in the fridge - alternatively you can make dashi ice cubes for a longer preserve. Top Tip from mcwee.
