Higashimaru Kyoto-Style Kappo Shirodashi (京風割烹白だし) 400 ml — a premium white dashi (shirodashi) inspired by Kyoto kappo (fine-cuisine) cooking. It builds a fragrant bonito-and-kombu dashi with shaved tuna and a rich blend of dried-fish flakes, finished with light (usukuchi) soy sauce made from 100% domestic whole soybeans — for an elegant, mellow dashi flavour that keeps the natural colour of your ingredients. Just dilute with water.
About Higashimaru Shoyu
Higashimaru Shoyu Co., Ltd. (ヒガシマル醤油株式会社) is a soy-sauce and seasoning maker based in Tatsuno, Hyogo Prefecture — the historic home of usukuchi (light-colour) soy sauce. Higashimaru is one of Japan's major usukuchi shoyu producers and is also widely known for its dashi and udon-soup products.
What is shirodashi
Shirodashi (白だし) is a light-coloured concentrated seasoning base that combines dashi stock with light soy sauce. Because it's pale rather than dark, it seasons and adds umami without darkening the food — you simply dilute it with water for the dish you're making.
Popular uses
Per Higashimaru, dilute it for clear soups (suimono), oden, dashimaki tamago (rolled omelette), simmered dishes (nimono) and takikomi gohan (seasoned rice).
