味の素 ほんだし 鰹だし

That one teaspoon really does stretch to six cups — I've made three batches of miso soup and the depth of bonito flavor is still there every time. It dissolves instantly, no clumps, which makes it my go-to for any recipe that calls for dashi.

I’ve been using this powder for miso soup and it dissolves instantly with no clumps—one teaspoon really does make a full pot of broth. The bonito flavor is clean and savory without being fishy, exactly what I needed for authentic Japanese cooking at home.
