Method

Put the reserved konbu and kezuri-bushi from the first dashi into a pan with the water. Bring to the boil, then simmer for about 15 minutes, or until the stock is reduced by a third.
Add the kezuri-bushi to the pan and immediately remove the pan from the heat. Skim any scum from the surface and leave to stand for 10 minutes. Strain.
