Shiro dashi is a pale Japanese seasoning stock of kombu and bonito dashi, light soy sauce, mirin and salt, used to flavour dishes without darkening them.

A clear Japanese broth made by gently extracting kombu’s savoury taste into water. Use it on its own for delicate dishes or as the kelp base for a separate bonito or dried-fish dashi.
