Ingredients
  

  • 1 piece kombu about 2 inches
  • 1/2 cup dried bonito flakes or dried shiitake mushrooms for a vegetarian option
  • 1/2 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons mirin
  • 3/4 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 3/4 teaspoon rice vinegar
  • 1/2 cup yuzu juice freshly squeezed if available

Instructions
 

  • Place the kombu and dried bonito flakes in a sterilized jar. Pour in the soy sauce, mirin, sesame oil, rice vinegar, and yuzu juice. Make sure the kombu and flakes are fully submerged. If they are not, cover the jar and give it a gentle shake.
    Refreshing homemade cold brew coffee in a glass pitcher.
  • Seal the jar and refrigerate for 24 hours. This steeping time lets the flavors meld and gives the sauce depth.
