4 servings
- 4 cups cold water
- 1 oz (about 15–20 g) kombu
- 1 oz (about 1 packed cup) katsuobushi (bonito flakes)
Instructions
- 1
Use kitchen scissors or a knife to score the kombu with a few shallow cuts along its surface, then place it in a medium saucepan with the cold water. Let it soak for 30 minutes, until the kombu has softened and the water has taken on a faint golden tint.

Set the saucepan over medium-low heat and warm the kombu and water slowly, until small bubbles begin to form at the bottom of the pan and the water reaches about 140–150°F (60–65°C) — just below a simmer. This should take about 10 minutes. Do not let the water boil.
