Cold dashi broth is a refreshing Japanese staple made from simple, nutrient-rich ingredients. This clear, savory liquid is traditionally prepared using kombu (seaweed) and katsuobushi (fermented bonito flakes), both of which are steeped in water to create a depth of umami flavor. Sometimes dried shiitake mushrooms are included for additional richness. Dashi is free of heavy oils or fats, making it a light, low-calorie option. Rich in minerals like iodine and antioxidants from the kombu, and protein from the bonito flakes, it supports overall wellness. Cold dashi is especially favored in summer months for its cooling and hydrating qualities when served chilled. However, store-bought versions may contain added sodium, which should be consumed in moderation. Versatile and naturally flavorful, cold dashi serves as a base for light salads, chilled noodle dishes, or refreshing soups in Japanese cuisine.
