The Rishiri Kombu in a convenient powder. Dive into the robust umami and aroma of Rishiri Kombu, harvested from the nutrient-rich waters of Rishiri and Rebun Island in northern Hokkaido. The deep, savory flavor of the Rishiri Kombu makes it a staple for chefs seeking a rich and flavorful base for their dishes.
Rishiri Kombu is particularly valued for its role in making Ichiban Dashi (first brew dashi), a fundamental component of Japanese traditional Kaiseki cuisine and Shojin (Japanese Buddhist) cuisine. Its ability to impart a complex flavor makes it ideal for creating sophisticated and balanced broths.
Mix the powder into soups, sauces and stir-fries or sprinkle it as a finishing touch for pastas for enhanced umami flavor.
