Chicken Dashi Base

 

This premium hot pot soup is crafted using the exclusive "Chicken Layered Simmering Method," a technique that extracts maximum umami by slow-cooking both chicken leg bones and whole chickens together. It uses the exact same ingredients and process as the authentic Mizutaki soup served at the famous Hakata Hanamidori restaurant. The depth of flavor in this broth only intensifies as your meats and vegetables simmer, allowing you to recreate an authentic Japanese fine-dining experience at home.

 

Preparation:

1. Shake the pouch well, pour into a pot, and bring to a boil.

2. Add chicken and, as it begins to boil again, carefully skim off any foam from the surface.

3. Add vegetables, tofu, and other favorite ingredients, and simmer until cooked through.

4. Enjoy with ponzu sauce and seasonings according to your preference.

5. For the perfect finish, use the remaining savory broth to make a comforting rice porridge (Zosui).
