Kayanoya Dashi-Infused Umami Sea-Salt

Aromatic, complex dashi is the base of many Japanese soups like miso soup. And this well-seasoned salt allows you to add its savory flavor to anything. Salt from Japan’s Amakusa Sea meets umami-packed bonito flakes (the smoked and dried mackerel that gives dashi its distinctive taste), roasted flying fish and dried herring. The ingredients read more like a fish monger’s stock list than a pantry label. Delicate flecks of kombu (seaweed) add a delicate ocean-y brine. A small pinch of the stuff transforms even the simplest of meals with savory, smoky roasted flavor. It can elevate a simple broth and more instantly!
