Dried bonito, also known by its Japanese name katsuobushi, is one of the essential ingredients for traditional Japanese cuisine. The bonito (skipjack tuna) used to make these bonito flakes is fished in the Pacific Ocean then smoked and heat dried in Spain, following Japanese traditional katsuobushi making.
To make a dashi broth infuse 40g of bonito flakes in 1000ml of hot water for 3 to 5 minutes and filter the broth. You can also use these flakes to make savory preparations such as a quiche, use them as a topping or a final touch on rice, a salad, crudités, tapas, a pizza or vegetables.
