Discover the authentic taste of Japanese cuisine with Clearspring Japanese Hokkaido Kombu, a premium dried sea vegetable renowned for its rich umami flavor. Harvested from the pristine waters of Hokkaido, this thick, wide strip kombu is an essential ingredient for creating traditional Japanese soups, noodle broths, and dashi stocks.
Kombu is naturally high in glutamic acid, an amino acid responsible for its distinctive savory taste that enhances and deepens the flavors of other ingredients. Incorporating kombu into your cooking not only adds complexity but also helps soften beans during cooking, improving their digestibility and texture.
