SEAWEEDKOMBUJAPANESE

Kombu is dried kelp, the foundation of Japanese dashi and the source of deep, natural umami. Steep a sheet in cold or gently heated water for stocks, soups, and noodle broths, add to simmering beans to soften them, or use it to cure fish (kombujime) and season sushi rice.

  • Trusted by chefs, bakeries, breweries, restaurants and manufacturers for over 30 years

Who it is for. Ramen shops, sushi bars, izakayas and serious home cooks who make dashi from scratch. The 1 lb bulk pack is sized for a restaurant stockpot, not a single pot of soup.

How to use it. For dashi, steep a sheet in cold water for 30 minutes, then bring just to a simmer and remove the kombu before it boils. Add a strip to a pot of dried beans to help them soften. Wrap raw fish in dampened kombu for a few hours for kombujime, and lay a piece in the rice cooker when preparing sushi rice. Wipe the surface with a damp cloth; the white powder on the sheet is natural glutamate, not mold.

Storage. Keep in a sealed container in a cool, dry place away from light. Properly stored, dried kombu keeps for many months.

Shipping Note
If this is a heavy or bulky item (50 lbs or more) it may significantly impact shipping costs. For larger quantities (typically 500 lbs or more), palletized or LTL freight is often the most cost-effective option.
