Tip 1: Note that dashi made with dashi powder contains salt, unlike homemade dashi. I typically avoid dashi powder in my recipes unless specified. Adjust salt, soy sauce, or miso accordingly if you're mindful of your salt intake.Tip 2: I don‘t recommend storing dashi in the refrigerator or freezer.
