We aimed to create a product that not only ensures safety and peace of mind but also maximizes the natural ingredients' benefits, balancing "aroma, umami, and richness."
- The ultimate Japanese-style powdered dashi developed through a collaboration between two companies.Based on Maeda family's wish to enjoy authentic flavors at home, this product was created by Hirotaka Adachi, the third-generation owner of Adachi Shokuhin. It is called "Maeda Family's Supreme Japanese Dashi."
