#kombu — Public Fediverse posts

Did you know not all #kombu are the same?
Kombu are #Japanese seaweeds essential for making dashi, the base broth of #Japanese cuisine. At Ikiya, we only offer natural, wild kombu directly from #Hokkaido. Each type has unique characteristics and ideal uses. Let’s explore the differences, and some key Japanese culinary terms!

Ich werde heute den useligen Feiertag dazu nutzen, endlich mal ein paar Saucen aus diesem Kochbuch zuzubereiten. Die sind wohl im Kühlschrank einige Wochen haltbar. Gestern habe ich auch das erste Mal Dashi Brühe angesetzt. Schmeckt wirklich ganz fein. #asiatischekuche #kombu #Feodora_hat_frei #koreanischekuche

Probiere heute mal eine eigene Dashi Brühe anzusetzen. Dazu habe ich Kombu Alge in ein großes Einmachglas mit Wasser gegeben. In einigen Rezepten fand ich auch den Hinweis, man könnte etwas getrocknete Skitake noch dazugeben. Auch das hab ich getan. Heute Abend stelle ich sie in Kühlschrank und morgen werde ich sie dann mal abgießen und probieren. #selberkochenmachtspass #asiatischekuche #kombu #dashi

The hardest part was acquiring and using pig’s trotters. Getting them fresh and pre-sliced at Super H Mart would have made that much easier.

Macht jemand regelmäßig Gerichte mit #Kombu/#Konbu und weiß, ob das Zeug auch selbst essbar ist?
Viele Hersteller geben an, das sei „nicht zum direkten Verzehr geeignet“ (wegen des vielen Jods, nehme ich an), und doch findet man immer wieder Rezepte, in denen Kombu selbst als Zutat vorkommt.
