To begin with this recipe, we have to prepare a few ingredients. You can have basic dashi stock (ichiban/first dashi, niban/second dashi) using 5 ingredients and 8 steps. Here is how you cook that.

The ingredients needed to make Basic Dashi Stock (Ichiban/First Dashi, Niban/Second Dashi):
  1. Make ready 15 grams Kombu
  2. Get 35 grams Bonito flakes
  3. Take 1 liter + 100 ml Water (for the ichiban/first dashi)
  4. Get 500 ml Water (for the niban/second dashi)
  5. Prepare 15 grams Additional bonito flakes (only if necessary)
Instructions to make Basic Dashi Stock (Ichiban/First Dashi, Niban/Second Dashi):
  1. Soak the konbu seaweed in water (for the ichiban/first dashi) overnight.
  2. Heat water and konbu seaweed from Step 1. When it comes to a boil, remove the konbu seaweed. Add extra water plus all the bonito flakes at once and bring to a boil. Turn off the heat as soon as it boils.
  3. When the bonito flakes sink to the bottom (in 2-3 minutes) either scoop out or strain the dashi through paper towels.
  4. Put the used konbu seaweed and bonito flakes in water for niban/second dashi and bring to a boil. Simmer over low heat for 5 minutes. If adding adding more bonito flakes for flavor, add 1/2 the amount used for the ichiban dashi.
  5. Store dashi you'll use right away in a pot (it'll keep for 2-3 days). To store dashi longer (up to 3 weeks) pour into ice trays, or into a plastic ziplock bag and freeze flat.
  6. Use ichiban-dashi for clear soups and miso soups, and other dishes that call for it. Use niban-dashi for simmered dishes and the like.
  7. I recommend simmering niban-dashi and konbu seaweed used for making dashi with vegetables in a pressure cooker. The dashi flavor penetrates the vegetables, and the konbu seaweed becomes soft and silky. You can enjoy a lot of vegetables this way.
  8. Try cooking daikon radish slices (with the sharp edges rounded off) with konbu seaweed, salt, and sugar in a pressure cooker for 10 minutes for a light and mild flavored dish.
