Hidaka Kombu
Hidaka Kombu is a quintessential kelp from Hokkaido, indispensable for dishes like oden and nimono (simmered dishes). Known scientifically as 'Mitsuishi Kombu,' it has been affectionately called by this name because it is harvested along the coast of the Hidaka region, primarily centered around the Mitsuishi district of Shinhidaka Town. The charm of Hidaka Kombu lies in its ability to soften easily during cooking without losing its shape. When used to make dashi (broth), it produces a rich and deep flavor, and it is also delicious when enjoyed directly in simmered dishes, kombu maki (kelp rolls), or tsukudani (simmered in soy sauce). It is an ingredient that has quietly supported Japanese home cooking from behind the scenes. Try adding the savory umami of Hidaka Kombu to your dining table with this quick-cooking variety.
