HACHINEN-AN - Umami Dashi Pack with Roasted Flying Fish - 16 packs

Unlock the rich, delicate flavors of roasted flying fish with this Umami Dashi Pack. This versatile seasoning is crafted with a unique blend of six premium ingredients, including roasted flying fish (ago), mackerel flakes, kombu, shiitake mushrooms, bonito flakes, and more, to create a dashi that's both flavorful and health-conscious.

Rich History & Philosophy

For centuries, flying fish (ago) has been a key ingredient in Fukuoka’s culinary traditions, especially used for creating savory broths in dishes like ozoni (New Year’s soup). In this product, fresh flying fish from Nagasaki is grilled over charcoal, adding a sophisticated, smoky flavor. The fish is then blended with other high-quality ingredients to produce a well-balanced, umami-rich dashi. This product allows you to bring the authentic flavors of Fukuoka directly to your kitchen.

What Makes It Stand Out

• Authentic & Premium Ingredients
  The flying fish is carefully grilled over charcoal to enhance its natural smokiness and umami, while the addition of other ingredients such as mackerel and shiitake mushrooms adds depth and complexity to the broth.

• Versatile Use
  Whether you're simmering soup, stir-frying, or cooking rice, this dashi pack provides endless culinary possibilities. Use it as a base for traditional dishes or explore creative recipes by tearing open the sachet and adding the contents to other meals.
