8 servings
- ½ cup soy sauce
- ¼ cup fresh lemon juice (from about 2 lemons)
- ¼ cup fresh yuzu juice or additional lemon juice
- 3 tbsp mirin
- 1 tbsp rice vinegar
- 1 piece kombu (about 3 inches / 7.5 cm)
- ¼ cup bonito flakes (katsuobushi)
Instructions

Combine the soy sauce, lemon juice, yuzu juice, mirin, and rice vinegar in a small saucepan. Add the kombu and bring to a bare simmer over medium-low heat, just until small bubbles appear at the edges and steam rises — do not boil.

Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the bonito flakes. Let the mixture steep for 5 minutes, until the flakes have settled and the liquid is fragrant and deeply savory.
