Enhance simple dishes with rich Japanese umami.
Rich Flavor in Every Sprinkle

Enhance simple dishes with rich Japanese umami.

Just a finishing sprinkle brings out the savory depth of dashi. Use it to season Japanese dishes, or as a dipping or finishing salt.

Quality Ingredients

Roasted Flying Fish (Ago)

Roasted Flying Fish (Ago)

It is used to make soup stock in Hakata-style ozoni, a traditional New Year’s dish from Kyushu. For Kayanoya's Original Dashi, the freshly caught fish are roasted and then ground whole — bones and all — to extract their full flavor.

Dried Skipjack Tuna

Dried Skipjack Tuna

We use high-quality "arabushi (smoke-dried skipjack tuna flakes)" smoked slowly over hardwood for two weeks. This results in a rich, bold aroma and an exceptionally deep flavor.

Round Herring  (Urume Iwashi)

Round Herring (Urume Iwashi)

It features a rich umami flavor with a subtle sweetness, which creates a deep, well-rounded taste. Carefully selected round herring (urume iwashi) are processed while still fresh to preserve their quality.

How to Store: Store at room temperature, avoiding high humidity and direct sunlight.
