Hazırlanışı
1Gently wipe kombu with a damp cloth. Do not wash. Place kombu and 1000 grams water in a pot. Heat slowly over medium-low heat.
2Just before the water boils, remove the kombu. Bring the water to a boil, then turn off the heat. Add katsuobushi to the hot water. Let steep for 30 seconds to 1 minute.
3Strain the dashi through a fine-mesh sieve lined with cheesecloth. Do not squeeze the katsuobushi. This yields approximately 750 grams of dashi stock. Set aside.
