INSTRUCTIONS

Instructions

  1. 1

    Place 40g of mixed shaved fish in a dashi pack with 6g of scored kombu, submerge in 2L water, cover, and refrigerate overnight.

  2. 2

    Transfer the soaked dashi to a pot and warm slowly over low heat for about 15 minutes, bringing it to 90°C.

    2:33~15 min
  3. 3

    At 90°C, turn off the heat, cover, and steep for 5 minutes.

    2:56~5 min
  4. 4

    Lift out the dashi pack and kombu.

  5. 5

    Return the pot to low heat and add 110ml light soy, 25ml dark soy, and 50ml mirin. Bring to a boil to drive off the alcohol — that's your kake-dashi.

  6. 6

    In a separate pot, cook the udon per package instructions, drain, and plate.

    4:02~10 min
  7. 7

    In a frying pan, bring about 250ml of the kake-dashi to a boil. Add 200g pork loin and 200g pork belly and cook just until done. Finish with a swirl of dark soy for aroma.

    4:40~5 min
  8. 8

    Pour plenty of hot kake-dashi over the udon, top with the cooked pork, and sprinkle with thinly sliced scallion.
