A twist on dashi with bone broth: a comforting bowl ready in 10 minutes

There are nights when you don't have the energy or the desire to cook. You just want a warm bowl of something simple and comforting that won't weigh you down. It's exactly for nights like these that we've put a new spin on dashi.

Dashi is the most widely consumed broth in the world. šŸœ In Japan, it forms the foundation of nearly all traditional cuisine: miso soup, ramen, udon noodles, and stews. What makes it so special? Its natural depth of flavor—umami—which adds character to any dish without the need for a thousand ingredients.

Why this updated version?

We’ve preserved the essence of traditional dashi and combined it with our bone broth. The result: an even more nourishing bowl that brings together the best of both worlds.

  • Collagen for the skin, joints, and gut
  • Iodine and minerals provided by kombu seaweed
  • Essential amino acids that support energy and recovery
  • Natural umami that makes every sip satisfying, with no additives

This is a bowl that warms you up, soothes you, and makes you feel good from the inside out. A little mineral-rich refreshment in a pot.

The recipe

Ingredients:

  • 1 jar of Mon Bouillon bone broth
  • 1 piece of kombu seaweed
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • Fresh chives
  • A few drops of sesame oil

Steps:

1ļøāƒ£ Pour the bone broth into a saucepan.

2ļøāƒ£ Add the piece of kombu. It will release all the natural umami into the broth.

3ļøāƒ£ Let it steep for 5 minutes over very low heat. Be sure not to let it boil, or the kombu will become bitter.

4ļøāƒ£ Remove the kombu.

5ļøāƒ£ Add the soy sauce, chopped chives, and a few drops of sesame oil.

There you go! A comforting bowl, ready in under 10 minutes. 🄣

The little extra

To turn this dashi into a complete meal, you can add some soba noodles, a soft-boiled egg, a little silken tofu, or some steamed greens. Each variation stays true to the spirit of the broth: simple, nourishing, and deeply satisfying.
