Konbu seaweed is one of the key ingredients in high-end Japanese food. Hokkaido seaweed is one of the highest quality and has a delicate sweetness. They can be used for a variety of dishes, such as hot served or simmered specials, as well as soups.
The seaweed that has already been used in the broth can be added to other dishes or cooked in soy sauce (possibly mirin or sugar).
