Dashi Powder

Dashi Powder is a concentrated Japanese stock seasoning used to make dashi, the savory base for many soups, broths and simmered dishes; it’s typically made from dried kelp (kombu) and dried bonito. In terms of nutrition, it supplies a noticeable amount of protein and minerals but is also very high in sodium — it contains about 7.5g of salt per 100g, so small amounts are usually used when cooking. It is a good source of iodine and calcium compared with many pantry seasonings, and provides a robust umami flavor and quality amino acids, but you should use it sparingly or choose whole ingredients (kombu and bonito flakes) when you want to better control salt and iodine intake.
