Kikkoman Kaori Shiro dashi is a modern take on a classic Japanese staple. "Shiro dashi" literally means "white dashi," and it is a popular alternative to regular dashi stock. This product combines the traditional umami-rich dashi with light-colored soy sauce (usukuchi shoyu), mirin (sweet rice wine), and sugar to create a perfectly balanced, all-in-one seasoning. The result is a light-hued liquid that imparts a subtle saltiness and powerful umami, enhancing the flavor of any dish without darkening it. It's the ideal choice for cooks who want to achieve professional-level taste and presentation How to Use & Serving Suggestions
