Grade A shaved bonito flakes from Jinan for dashi and toppings on okonomiyaki and takoyaki.
Jinan Bonito Flakes are shaved, dried bonito graded A, the katsuobushi that gives Japanese cooking its smoky umami. Steep a handful in hot water with kombu for dashi, scatter them over takoyaki and okonomiyaki where they curl in the heat, top cold tofu, or mix them with soy for okaka onigiri.
