Dashi from Makurazaki Japan's World-Renowned Umami Culture
From Kagoshima to the world
Makurazaki, in Kagoshima Prefecture, has been a renowned katsuobushi-producing region since the Edo period. The katsuobushi made here is essential to dashi, the foundation of Japanese cuisine, and underpins the depth of washoku. Katsuobushi is a symbol of that food culture, which is registered as a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage. The inosinate in katsuobushi, combined with the glutamate in kombu, dramatically heightens umami. This synergy is what makes Japanese cooking taste simple, yet profound. Low in calories, gentle on digestion, healthy yet satisfying — Makurazaki dashi is a taste in which Japanese wisdom and culture are distilled.
