Tosa sauce is best after it has aged for 6 months, but it can be used right away or for up to 1 year. It is used as a dipping sauce for raw fish or hot or cold seafood, meats, or vegetables.

Ingredients

konbu (kelp), 1 strip

Method

  1. Wipe the konbu with a barely moist towel and snap it into several pieces.
  2. Combine all the ingredients in a stainless-steel mixing bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let sit for 24 hours at room temperature.
  3. Strain through a fine-mesh strainer or cheesecloth. Refrigerate in a bottle with a tight-fitting cap.
