The Richness of Dashi in Vegan Cuisine

This traditional broth, usually made from kelp and bonito flakes, provides a savory umami flavor fundamental to Japanese cooking. Fortunately for vegans, there are plant-based dashi options available that use kombu (seaweed) and shiitake mushrooms to achieve that same depth of flavor without any animal products. Vegan dashi forms the base for many soups, stews, and sauces, elevating the taste of dishes and bringing out the natural flavors of the ingredients. When exploring vegan food experiences in Tokyo, be sure to seek out meals that incorporate this flavorful broth.
