Skipjack tuna simmered, smoked and dried, then shaved paper-thin. It gives dashi its smoky depth.
Katsuobushi is skipjack tuna that has been cooked, smoked and dried until rock-hard, then shaved into paper-thin flakes.
With kombu it makes dashi. It is also sprinkled straight over okonomiyaki, takoyaki, cold tofu and rice, where the flakes dance in the heat.
