Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a pot, combine 400ml dashi stock and 10g dried kombu. Simmer over low heat for 10 minutes until the kombu releases its flavor — do not let it boil vigorously to preserve delicate umami.
  2. Step 2: Remove kombu and add 150g sliced bamboo shoots. Simmer gently for 5 minutes until tender but still crisp.
  3. Step 3: Stir in 2 tbsp white miso paste until fully dissolved, then heat for 30 seconds without boiling — the mixture should be warm but not bubbling.
  4. Step 4: Divide into bowls, top with 1 sheet shredded nori and drizzle with 1 tsp sesame oil just before serving.
