Ninben Concentrated Soup Stock (Shirodashi) 500ml

Description:
Unlock the delicate, umami-rich foundation of Japanese cooking with Ninben Shirodashi Concentrated Soup Stock. Unlike dark soy-based broths, Shirodashi ("white drizzle") is a beautifully balanced, light-colored liquid made from a premium blend of bonito flakes (katsuobushi), kombu seaweed, and a touch of soy sauce. The result is a versatile, all-in-one seasoning that delivers a profound depth of savory flavor with a subtle sweetness and a clear, elegant finish.

This concentrate is your secret weapon for creating restaurant-quality dishes at home with incredible ease. Simply dilute with water to create an instant dashi broth, or use it straight as a multi-purpose flavor enhancer.
