Okay people, this condiment is magic! When family and friends ask “what’s your secret ingredient?” I smile, shrug humbly, and say love and hmm, umami! I use it in pretty much all my soups, tomato and cream gravies and sauces. A tsp or so will elevate them in a very subtle, but mouthwatering way.

Wise Purchase!
Reviewed in the United States on October 4, 2022
Size: 2.2 Pound (Pack of 1)Verified Purchase
This is one of the most purchased ingredients used in Japanese cooking! If you prepare a lot of Japanese dishes, this would be something that you would use often. It is usually purchased in small packets (about a tablespoon amount), as it is concentrated in flavor and a little goes a long way! But purchasing it in small amounts will greatly increase its price!! Use it as a stock basis for making all kinds of Japanese soups: miso, wakame, etc. You can also use a little to deepen the flavor of stir-frys and other oriental dishes. Useful hint: keep it in an airtight container in the refrigerator to last longer.

Reviewed in the United States on January 11, 2020
Size: 2.2 Pound (Pack of 1)Verified Purchase
if you've never had these, these are Hon Dashi japanes fish stock powder.
you've probally had some type of soup or broth in a japanese restaurant.
they mostly use these hon dashi stock. some are cooked and some use these.
I have had both cooked and powder stock.
and I can't taste the difference.
these go great with soba or vegebables when you do shabu shabu.
great buy for the price.
if you buy individual packs they are 30% higher cost.
i use it ofter so i purchased this bigger size.
i would recommend getting the smaller size and see how you like it first.

a must have ingredient when making miso soup
Reviewed in the United States on January 24, 2020
Size: 2.2 Pound (Pack of 1)Verified Purchase
i'm sick and tired trying to find that one ingredient that the local stores don't have which is unfortunate and irritating when you are trying to nurse sick people back to health. without the hondashi the miso soup is not complete which yes everybody has their likes and dislikes when making this particular soup which is a matter of opinion but now that i got the one main ingredient which is always lacking in store i'm happy to say this will last me for a long while until i need more of it in the near by future. 10/10 i'd recommend this brand since its the only one that makes the soup taste traditional.
